I particularly specialize in complex trauma from growing up neurodivergent and LGBTQIA without a supportive system. This can look like unidentified neurodivergence during childhood, growing up in an oppressive religious environment, or living in a household with dysfunctional family dynamics. We connect your symptoms to any childhood wounds while shifting your perception of yourself and the world.

Accelerated Resolution Therapy is my favorite model for working through trauma with clients. This therapy is not a talk based therapy and utilizes eye movements to desensitize traumatic memories and the trauma responses associated with those memories.
