Accepting clients for March 2026! I work with entrepreneurs, creatives, spiritual and high performing adults,teens,couples with neurodivergence, a trauma history and relationship challenges. We interrupt relationship patterns that don't benefit. Many of my clients are low/ no contact with family of origin. If talk therapy hasn't helped you fulfill your goals then my approaches might. I offer intensive therapy sessions which are helpful because clients can do a lot of processing in a short time. This is a great option for busy people or someone who has had a disruption. I help parents with neurodivergent children feel supported.
I’m a holistic therapist who uses earth based modalities, IFS, EFT, Gottman, EMDR, DBT, somatic practices and family systems. I use out of the box interventions! I see my clients as whole people, no cookie cutter approaches. I help clients develop empowerment, self trust and a deep connection to self. We spend time on building insight for expansion.
I teach clients how to have self compassion and better insight into their patterns to lead a calmer, more present life. I offer a gentle yet direct approach to build safety and trust in the relationship. Many people have out of network benefits they were not aware of and I use thrizer. If you have OON you will only pay a portion of my fee through Thrizer.

I utilize EMDR the most and use this for people of all ages. I offer trauma and couples intensives which many clients find quite useful. I practice "playful EMDR" which is trauma therapy and play therapy together for children. This modality is developmentally appropriate for children under 10 years old.

The main three modalities I use are EMDR, IFS and somatic therapies. Research has shown that these modalities are the best ones for treating people who have experienced trauma. These modalities can be used with clients of all ages. IFS or Internal Family Systems can be helpful for clients coming to therapy for all different types of reasons.
