Trauma and PTSD leaves us feeling broken, damaged, and disconnected from our true selves. It also often leads us to self-medicate with alcohol, drugs, or other substances. You're someone who takes care of others, but still finding yourself falling short, feeling exhausted and unsure what to do. You work hard and thrive in many areas of your life, yet peace escapes you, you feel empty and sometimes hopeless. But you are ready to make a change. You're ready to feel empowered and hopeful. You're ready to work hard and take your life back. My extensive training in trauma, EMDR and substance abuse will help you heal!
I specialize in working with teens and adults struggling with trauma, mood disorders, or substance use such as alcohol or drugs. Clients come to me looking for a therapist who deeply understand their unique pain points. I believe therapy should be a place where you feel empowered, safe, and seen. Sessions incorporate skill building and harm reduction.
As an experienced trauma professional, I honor the step you are taking. You don't have to continue feeling broken and damaged, and you don't have to do it alone. You can start healing now. Visit my website for more information or submit a request here for a free 15-minute consultation. Session are offered in person or online weekdays or evenings.

I often use a combination of sand tray and EMDR in my practice. In your first session, we will take time to explore your reason for coming to therapy, history, and goals to decide the best way to help you. If you have a history of trauma, EMDR is a powerful tool to help yourself heal and recover. EMDR is also effective for substance use. Combined with sandtray, this becomes a powerful duo.
