I believe there are many ways to achieve well-being and recovery. Presence, patience, compassion, acceptance, and curiosity are some of the qualities I possess. I believe competent therapy is a co-creation between the client and therapist and pride myself in embodying everything I expect of my clients. I'm passionate about stewarding people to create greater acceptance, balance, inner attunement and well-being in their lives. I specialize in all addiction disorders (i.e. substance use disorders, behavioral addictions such as problematic sexual behaviors, porn, food, internet gaming, etc.) and/or co-occurring disorders.
I utilize a variety of therapies that may include Sensorimotor Psychotherapy (Level II) EMDR (Level II), Internal Family Systems (IFS), Trauma Sensitive Mindfulness, and Mindfulness Based Relapse Prevention, " Interpersonal Neurobiology, ACT, DBT, Seeking Safety, and Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy.
Graduate of the Sensorimotor Psychotherapy Institute's Level II training, a cutting-edge somatically based modality for treating trauma. EMDR level II trained and working toward EMDRIA certification. Currently going for my Ph.D. In Clinical Sexology with an emphasis in Addictive Disorders from the International Institute for Clinical Sexology (IICS).
