I'm a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in California and Colorado, and I work as part of Connect Counseling Group, a trauma-focused therapy practice specializing in EMDR and thoughtful, collaborative care. I work with adolescents, adults, couples, and families navigating trauma, ADHD, anxiety, relationship stress, family conflict, and major life transitions. You don't need to have everything figured out before we meet - we can start with where you are and work toward where you want to be.
One of my primary specialties is EMDR, which can help reduce the impact of severe and subtle trauma without requiring you to relive every detail. I also draw on talk therapy, Restoration Therapy, CBT, and Internal Family Systems-informed approaches to tailor treatment to each client's needs.
At Connect Counseling Group, we value careful client matching, strong clinical support, and therapy that helps clients move toward healing, connection, and more stable patterns in their lives. I know it can be hard to reach out, but getting support for yourself and your relationships can create meaningful change that lasts beyond the moment you are in now.

I work with clients who struggle with complex trauma, depression, or anxiety often with other issues such as eating disorders...etc. that are related to their relationships or family. During our initial sessions, we focus on understanding the issues at hand and create a plan together to address them and work on feeling better. We then begin treatment, guiding as you journey through healing.

I mainly use EMDR, but I also use Cognitive Behavioral and Internal Family Systems techniques to contribute to tailoring treatment to your needs. We identify core beliefs, subsequent feelings, and body sensations to target and re-process trauma or adverse moments that get trapped in your system causing distress or feeling "stuck" so that you can build resources and feel equipped to move forward.
