Clients frequently come to me trying to deal with traumatic experiences from their past that they can not seem to move past. You may be experiencing anxiety, panic attacks, despair, low self-esteem, intrusive thoughts or memories and you don’t know how to help yourself. I would like to help you heal from those difficulties in life. I specialize in PTSD and trauma which I describe as “things from your past that still affect your present”, as well as grief, anxiety and phobias. I’ve been helping people heal from trauma for more than 15 years and offer more than one method to address the symptoms of trauma, anxiety and grief.
I’m a Certified EMDR Therapist and Certified ImTT Therapist. I have worked with a diverse clientele including children, families, couples, and individuals, but my passion is helping people heal from trauma and find a new, rewarding, and contented life. We cannot change our pasts, but we can heal and not be at the effect of what has happened in the past.
I believe that compassion is a cornerstone of healing and wellness. I strive to build supportive, compassionate, and empathic relationships with my clients, complimented by an honest and direct communication style. My goal is to assist my clients through a collaborative relationship that helps promotes healing to better navigate the difficulties in life.
