Hello! I work with people struggling with PTSD, depression, anxiety, disassociation, grief, relationship issues and life transitions. If your childhood was filled with abuse, neglect or trauma that was deeply felt but largely unseen, you may find yourself caught in frustrating patterns today. If you are considering the brave and vulnerable journey of engaging in therapy, know that I hold your effort as sacred. I use a compassionate, emotionally focused, and trauma informed approach to create a safe space for honest exploration. My goal is to guide you in navigating your core emotions, longings and your wounds.
I know that eventually with commitment, you will discover the vitality and trustworthiness of your most authentic self. For the past four years, I have worked with a local nonprofit in the treatment of children and families who have survived severe trauma. More recently, I am focused on working with adults who are
making sense of and healing from their traumatic pasts. I work from a non-pathologizing lens, using an evidence-based treatment model developed by Sue Johnson, called Emotion Focused Therapy. I also incorporate somatic work with the use of ART (bilateral eye movements) + RRP (nervous system repair).
