Thanks for checking out my profile. I work with individuals, including other therapists who are healing from complex trauma and its impact on emotional well-being. The majority of my clients are trying to navigate life's challenges (work, relationships, school, etc.) but are feeling held back by their past. No matter what you have been through or are currently dealing with, you will find a judgement-free space to process, heal & regain balance in the present. If you would like to talk, feel free contact me at 380-500-0387. I look forward to hearing from you.
I utilize a variety of modalities, depending on what would be most helpful and effective for the client. I am trained in EMDR, DBT and CBT and often see clients who are learning to cope with complex trauma as well as everyday stressors.
It can be difficult to take the first steps to heal from the past but you are not alone. Dealing with trauma while trying to be present in life takes courage. If you are thinking about beginning your healing journey, reach out to me and let's talk. I look forward to meeting you.

I have found that most of my clients have a story to tell and they want to be heard. In my sessions you will find a safe space to talk without being shamed or judged. I help my clients learn to find acceptance but also to make changes when desired or necessary.
