Whether it is healing from trauma & grief, struggling with self-worth & relationships, or feeling paralyzed with anxiety, I recognize how debilitating mental health and difficult life experiences can be on your happiness and fulfillment. As a therapist, I am passionate about helping adults, teenagers, and preteens heal from all types of traumas and navigate the complexities of grief. If you struggle with anxiety, depression, or feeling dependent on others, I want to assist you in changing negative thoughts that hold you back from feeling whole and being your true self.
While working with survivors of trauma and abuse for years, I've learned how trauma touches all parts of a human: physically, emotionally, cognitively, and spiritually. As a Certified Trauma Professional with diverse training in trauma processing, I am dedicated to providing personalized assistance. I am now offering optional EMDR intensives.
Whether it's calming your "inner critic", learning to cope, or digging deeper into traumatic experiences, I would love to assist you in your healing journey and springboard you to the life you've wanted.
