Vulnerability sounds like truth and feels like courage. Truth and courage aren’t always comfortable, but they're never weakness. -Brené Brown- If you have experienced trauma or just tired of always feeling anxious or depressed and it has begun to affect other areas of your life like relationships, work, and friendships it is time to get help. The World Health Organization recommends two therapy interventions for PTSD (
EMDR
and TF-CBT) both of which I have been extensively trained on. Therapy can help guide you along the path to inner peace and begin finding joy in your life again.

EMDR
produces effective and efficient results around a variety of issues including past trauma, anxiety, and depression.
It can feel scary, exciting, intimidating, and hopeful to finally decide to see a counselor. Sometimes it takes us years to finally reach out and make the call. It is such an honor that my clients allow me into their lives. I find that my life is enriched through knowing and experiencing my clients' lives along side them. I work hard to make my office a safe, open, affirming space. Experience has taught me that past experiences truly inform present functioning. Healing and growth is possible, as I witness it daily. I look forward to collaborating with you and I offer you the option of utilizing
EMDR

Expressive Arts,
EMDR
, IFS (parts work), somatic and polyvagal integrative work assists clients who have experienced trauma, have symptoms of c-PTSD, PTSD, anxiety and depression in the comfort on their own home.
Burnt-out, overwhelmed, stressed, utterly exhausted, it feels like effort to read all this. Life demands A LOT of energy just to function daily. Having a place set aside for you to show-up in whatever mood, energy level or mind state can feel like a refuge from daily obligations. Reprieve allows for focus, recalibration, and grounding. If it sounds like I have been there, I have been. Lived experience is a different type of education, I bring specialized training and lived experience together to support, guide, and encourage clients in their own restorative and transformational journey.

EMDR
, DBT, CBT, supportive therapy and existential therapy.
I am here for the individuals who may need extra help managing their thoughts and feelings dealing with relationships, stressful life events/transitions, or trauma. Sometimes we turn to unhealthy ways of coping, and I am driven to help people find adaptive ways of processing unpleasant emotions. I have a professional background in treating trauma symptoms and expertise in treating individuals struggling with depression, anxiety disorders, borderline personality disorder, codependency, and self-harm. I take the time to get to know the people I treat, so that one may feel comfortable enough to share things that are difficult to share.

I specialize in evidence-based
EMDR
trauma therapy.
I work with clients who feel stuck and overwhelmed by negative experiences (traumas). Trauma often manifests as physical symptoms you don't understand or emotions that shut you down when you least expect it. Maybe you feel numb or can't seem to stop feeling too much. Difficulty with memory and attention are often side affects of a person trying to mange life under great amounts of stress. Feelings of overwhelmed, anxiety, depression, and irritability, anger and even physical pain are our mind's way of saying something is wrong.

I'm a polyamory therapist, therapist for therapists, and
EMDR
practitioner.
Life didn’t used to feel so difficult. Work, life, and love were never this hard before. But now? Now, you're lucky if you make it through the day without feeling totally overwhelmed or zoning out in front of the TV once you get home. Actually, you used to really enjoy your life, even on the tough days. But now, it's like the only thing you want to do is hide—better yet, stay home and sleep. You're desperate to get back to a place where you don't dread the day, where you can actually enjoy your work, life, and relationships again. Those days feel pretty far away sometimes—but you haven't given up hope (yet).
