I have found that preteens, adolescents, and young adult women are the best fit for my experience and expertise. I understand that many people, specifically teenagers, do not always want to pursue counseling services. It is my goal to come alongside others and create a warm, nonjudgemental atmosphere for them to feel comfortable working on their mental health needs.

You Don't Need More Insight - You Need Your Nervous System to Feel Safe Again.
You're smart. Capable. Insightful. And still, your body reacts as if the past is happening right now. If you've tried talk therapy, coping skills, or "pushing through" - and you're exhausted by how little has actually changed - you're not broken. Your nervous system is doing exactly what it learned to do to survive. That's where EMDR comes in. I specialize in EMDR therapy for individuals who are high-functionally on the outside and overwhelmed on the inside.

I like to think I have a unique skill set coupled with life experience that equips me to be a dynamic therapist. I served as a Marine in the military, spent 20 years working in the pathology field looking at healing the body, and now work with clients from 5 years old to older adults healing the mind. I value your experience and how it has shaped your core beliefs. But just because we have these beliefs doesn’t make them true. Together, we can assign new rules to these beliefs and heal the system as a whole—both body and mind.

I believe that the answers are inside you, but they get confused and lost among life's daily battles. They get buried under the opinions of bystanders who don't have to walk in your shoes and experts whose life looks nothing like yours. My goal as a therapist is to help you hear YOU. To clear space where that small voice that knows you better than anyone else, can finally be heard. My job is to listen, to see if you're hearing what I'm hearing and to reflect back where your heart and your head aren't matching up.
