Currently only accepting clients interested in short-term intensive EMDR therapy. In a busy, overwhelming, too-much world we all need to find ways to care for ourselves. Reaching out for therapy can be a way to carve out some space to nourish and connect to yourself. Maybe you're here because you feel overwhelmed and anxious. You know you have deep wisdom inside but the overwhelm is making it hard to access it. Perhaps there is self-judgment for feeling “too sensitive”. You’re doing big things yet you still feel small. You long to feel calm, centered, and connected. My grounded, intuitive, and collaborative approach can help!

This specialized therapy helps our brains heal from a negative incident much like how our bodies heal when we are injured.

Support, connection, compassion and skilled guidance can help us forge new pathways in our lives, our brains and our bodies.

CURRENTLY TAKING SELF PAY CLIENTS. I have had much experience helping people with their emotional pain, unresolved trauma, fear, anxiety, confusion, grief, stress, inner critic and self worth.

Therapy produces its own unique ecosystem. In the right collaboration, essential growth-oriented risks can be taken, which often results in sustainable transformation. Various tools we develop to emotionally survive our experiences in formative years can become automatic interpersonal response systems we operate from long after they serve us. This can impact the relationship we have with self and others. I strive to bring the utmost compassion and insight into the room while we work together to figure out how one's way of being in the world can become more aligned with concerns of the present circumstance.

I work with adolescents and with adults at all stages of life who are seeking a collaborative approach to navigating life stressors, deepening self-awareness and insight, and processing trauma.

I welcome clients from all backgrounds, races, gender identities, cultures.

I believe in Carl Jung’s theory of individuation where everyone is on a journey towards wholeness, and I also believe it doesn’t have to be a solo one.

I have an open and collaborative approach tailored to your therapeutic needs and I draw from an array of holistic modalities to help support you on your journey. I specialize in helping those with trauma related issues. We collaborate in creating a safe and trusting space for you to explore and gain insight in how your past experiences may still be affecting you.
