I have devoted my work life to helping people who have experienced abuse, neglect, and trauma and who are suffering from the consequences of that trauma.
Trauma makes you feel unsafe in the world, and worst of all it can make you feel unsafe in your own mind and body. Often you can feel as if something is fundamentally wrong with you, but nothing is wrong with you at all. You are living in reaction to your trauma. I will help you understand your specific trauma responses and how to change them.
Living in reaction to your trauma - possibly without knowing it - is not only painful but can feel debilitating. It can cause you to feel as if you are "hanging on by a thread" and impede your growth. You can find relief. You can heal. My goal is to support you in making changes that will lead to positive outcomes and a fuller life.

My therapy work centers on helping people who have experienced abuse, neglect, or trauma. I engage in talk therapy as well as Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR). EMDR helps clients to fully process their difficult experiences on both a mind and body level. It frees people to live in the present, to engage in productive and stable relationships, and to feel safe in themselves.
