Hello! I'm glad you're here. Your first step is taken! Here's how I can keep going with you so you don't have to go alone: My specialization is in trauma recovery, particularly in addressing infidelity, betrayal trauma, and relational distress related to sex addiction or compulsive sexual behaviors. Whether you're navigating the pain of betrayal or working together to rebuild trust, you're not alone. I'm certified in betrayal trauma and partner recovery (CPTT, CCBRT) through IITAP, and EMDR-trained through EMDRIA. I also help those with anxiety, depression, and panic struggles in a safe, compassionate space.
Through compassion and empathy, I partner with clients to begin their healing journey. I seek first to understand their story, providing a safe and secure place to process the pain. It is my core belief that no problem is without hope. There are good things on the other side of whatever hurt you're experiencing. I'd be honored to go on the journey with you.
I'd love to connect and answer questions about my process in working with my clients and what I can specifically help you with. Reach out via email to schedule a free, 15 minute consultation call to see if we'd be a good fit!
