Feeling stuck? Trapped in a cycle of self-doubt or fear? My goal as a therapist is to walk alongside you, helping you break free from survival patterns we often develop through adverse experiences. As a person-centered and EMDR therapist, I bring a supportive, affirming, and warm approach while offering the appropriate level of challenge to foster meaningful growth. I have experience and specialize in working with C-PTSD, PTSD, OCD, anxiety disorders, mood disorders, personality disorders and autism. I am a neurodivergent therapist myself and enjoy working with neurodiverse clients.
I have experience working with individuals of all ages and am trained in EMDR and Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT). I also utilize Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT), tailoring my approach to each client’s diagnosis.
If you are feeling like you need to get unstuck and move forward in life, I am ready to walk beside you and help guide you to help unlock your mind's natural abilities to heal and provide you with the most fulfilling life. I know it isn't always an easy journey, but I will always seek to meet you with support, patience and understanding!

I use an eclectic approach that is tailored to the individual client. I believe that our nervous system and brain are powerful and able to be healed. If you continue to feel stuck with talk therapy, EMDR is a way to activate our natural healing mechanisms to help you move forward. ACT, CBT and DBT are models I also incorporate often.
