In our work together, we will examine and unpack root causes of trauma, anxiety, and depression and look at tools and techniques to help relieve symptoms. I aim to provide a safe and sacred space where we can explore emotions, let go of unhelpful patterns, and find relief through somatic and creative approaches including EMDR, MBSR, music, art, sound, and movement to allow a free flow of expression and release to occur in the sessions.
As a trauma-informed psychotherapist, our work can encompass EMDR, Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction, sound meditation, and creative arts therapies. When working together in a creative approach with curiosity, we invite endless possibilities of wellbeing, grounding, balance, and self-actualization that are inherent and accessible to each of us.
Please reach out for a free 15-minute phone or Zoom consultation! Please email, call or text me and I will get back to you within 48 hours. I look forward to hearing from you!

The issues I specialize in are drawn from EMDR, Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction, and Creative Arts Therapies. These methods help regulate the central nervous system, effectively manage stress, and nurture self-expression and self-actualization in a loving and compassionate way. Together, we craft a personalized plan designed to help with goal-setting, self worth, and letting go of past traumas.
