Trauma is something we all have in common. That statement will either completely resonate with you, or you’ll think it’s ridiculous with the belief, “well, I’ve never experienced trauma”. I would challenge the latter with your definition of trauma. There are what we call "big T" traumas, which are the catastrophic happenings in life. And "little t" traumas, which are the less significant but still impactful happenings; things like not getting the promotion you've been working towards, family tension, financial stressors, or even indirect exposure to something disturbing.
Regardless of the magnitude, the hardships and wounds we carry around with us still deserve to be processed and that's where I come in. I work with people from a variety of backgrounds who are wanting to put their traumas, big or little, to rest. I truly enjoy exploring the complexities of trauma with clients to find resolve to the maladaptive patterns.
We will work together to unveil the roots of the negative beliefs fueling the disconnectedness, worry, sadness, or insecurities. With the goal of replacing the negative belief with an improved perspective and understanding of the situation. I look forward to finding the core of the issue and assisting you in finding the freedom you deserve.

I believe strongly in the importance of access to care. I have first hand experience in the headache that finding a competent therapist can be, especially one that doesn't break the bank. I accept a number of insurances and I am happy to work with folks on sliding scale to help meet their needs.

I am passionate about the quality of my work and strive to be more than a "good" therapist. Beyond the basic training, I am certified in EMDR. I also have additional trainings in a number of other theories such as CBT, DBT, SFBT, IFS, motivational interviewing, mindfulness, and simple breath work.

I'm not a docile "how does that make you feel" kind of therapist. I talk fast, get loud, and I don't own a single cardigan. I have overcome addictions and a litany of other traumas that plummeted me to a rock bottom without an essence of hope. I have worked extremely hard to be where I am at in my own healing journey so I can help be a holder of hope for others through the depths of their trials.

My preferred approach is Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR). I am certified in EMDR therapist through EMDRIA. However, I am far from a purist. I have advanced training in a number of different modalities. More than anything my approach adapts to meet the needs of the person I am working with. I keep my case planning flexible to hold space to respond to what folks bring to session.
