Are you feeling run down from years of being a people-pleaser, high achiever, rescuer, caretaker, or scapegoat? Have you been so focused on coming through for others that you have neglected your own needs? Your self-undermining habits may be fueled by lifelong unquestioned beliefs such as: I’m responsible when things go wrong, I must always give my all, I can’t bear to see others hurting, I’m not good enough, or I don’t matter. Like most people, you are behaving today based on an old software program installed during childhood trauma and never examined or updated. Suffering ends when these lessons are replaced.
You deserve care and attention to help you identify your own emotions, challenges, unfortunate life experiences, unmet needs and goals. As a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, I bring my dedication, compassion and decades of professional experience to each of my clients. You can heal the traumas that have shaped you and develop self-compassion.
By allowing me to support your healing journey, you will gradually come to feel good in your own skin, mind and heart and become wiser and more effective in your relationships. You can learn about EMDR and other approaches I use on my website. If you feel encouraged, I invite you to call or email me so we can quickly arrange your free consultation phone call

Practicing EMDR over the past 22 years has made it possible for me to help my clients heal thousands of painful traumas. Keep in mind, not all therapists who say they offer EMDR have achieved certification or have developed expertise by using it on a regular basis.

Not all therapists are comfortable with or recognize the value of vulnerable emotions. Many stay in the head and ignore the body and feelings. In contrast, I will develop your ability to safely explore your emotional world- felt in the body. This skill will serve you your whole life. I will focus on the roots of your difficulties so you can achieve the peace, self-worth and security you deserve.
