I know what it feels like to be overwhelmed, to struggle with negative self-talk, and to be triggered easily. Through navigating my own journey of recovery from childhood trauma and substance abuse I’ve learned how to be present with my emotions, heal from tremendous pain and grief, and build a better life. I know recovery is possible, because I’ve lived it. Now I focus on guiding my clients along their own healing journeys. Through 15+ years of clinical training and practice I’ve developed a wide variety of tools to help my clients overcome their painful pasts and build lives that bring them joy and fulfillment.
I specialize in helping people overcome trauma and learn healthy ways of coping with stress. I have helped many people change their lives in meaningful and significant ways, and am excited to see how I may be able to help you too. I use a variety of clinically proven modalities to help my clients, including EMDR, Brainspotting, and DBT.
Many of my clients report feeling better after just a few sessions and tell me that I've helped them in ways no other professional has been able to help. I invite you to reach out and schedule a free 15 minute phone consultation to see if we might be a good fit.
