If you're struggling with painful thoughts and feelings or a challenging life event, it's important that you feel understood and supported. It is crucial to find a safe place to work on these issues where you will not be judged. I'm a licensed psychotherapist with 13 years of experience assisting people suffering from anxiety, depression, history of trauma, postpartum adjustment, chronic stress, dysfunctional environments, grief and loss. It can be important to explore historical life events, and my approach also consists of skill-building and learning coping skills for the present.
I am fully certified in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy, which is a well-researched evidence based trauma treatment. I utilize Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) skills and concepts as well. I help people improve communication and set personal boundaries.
If you feel hurt, alone, or simply that you need to make a change and aren't sure how to proceed, please get in touch!
