While I enjoy working with clients of all ages, I have especially enjoyed tailoring evidence-based treatments for traumatized children.
I specialize in treating individuals who have been through traumatic events or have experienced developmental / relational injuries as well as depressive and anxiety disorders. I have worked extensively with both adults and children. I often use EMDR, IFS, Sensorimotor Psychotherapy (SP) for those patients with CPTSD. For children I often use EMDR, IFS, TF-CBT with Play and Sand Therapy. Other therapies I regularly use in developing a treatment plan include CPP, PCIT, Theraplay activities, and CBT.

I also assess children in their school or daycare setting, and provide assistance with IEP/IFSP meetings. I use both relational and behavioral strategies for treatment.

A good therapeutic relationship holds a high level of confidence, allowing people to share all sides of themselves; their hopes and fears, wants and needs, dreams and doubts, their strengths and vulnerabilities. Good therapy provides awareness and new perspectives, helping people to place less focus on where they are and more importance on the direction they are moving. My passion as a therapist, is to provide a space for individuals, couples and families to learn, heal and grow on their unique journeys towards transformation and personal freedom.

I specialize in supporting individuals find their way back to themselves when anxiety, depression, or any of life's many challenges have taken over. Many of the people I work with describe feeling overwhelmed and fatigued by anxiety and depression, they miss feeling like themselves and feel like they're falling short in their relationships, the workplace, or as a parent. I enjoy supporting individuals in slowing down, tuning in and discovering their innate worthiness, strengths, and abilities to create sustainable peace and wellness.

I work with adolescents and adults struggling with depression and anxiety. Depression and anxiety can show up as irritability, behavioral concerns, substance use; school, work and relationship difficulties. I use mindfulness to increase awareness and bring issues to the surface where they can be dealt with effectively. Many individuals feel they have thought or talked about a problem for years without making progress. Mindfulness can address these issues by connecting body sensations, negative emotions and healing. All appointments are via remote video.

When we find ourselves in a whirlwind, losing our sense of direction, it can be disorienting. We may lose connection to the part of us that knows what to do and where to go. We may be losing the battle with relentless looping thoughts, struggling to prioritize our own needs while being in relationship to others, and/or lacking the empowerment to make lasting change. There may be parts of our story that we would like to disown. Losing trust in ourselves, we become disconnected from our heart, confused by our own minds, and afraid to face what is next in life.

I believe that each client is an expert in their own life thus therapeutic work should be collaborative. I take a motivational, strengths-based approach with the belief that eventually the pain will subside and we get to decide what will take its place. Therapy can be uncomfortable but it should be embraced as we make changes for growth, find value through the difficult experiences, and peace in collaboration. I understand therapy can be difficult to step into my goal is to just help you feel it was worth it!
