As a EMDR and Brainspotting therapist who lives with ADHD, I understand and feel the challenges of life from the point of view of a neurodivergent individual. There are so many difficulties we face every day, and we are not born knowing how to use coping skills and tools to manage them. As a result, the path you’ve been on may be scary, but I want you to know that you are not alone! This is where I come in. I am a trauma-informed therapist that specializes in working with adolescents and adults who experience ADHD, trauma, PTSD, LGBTQIA+, domestic violence, and sexual assault, or are in need of crisis intervention.
I am trained in EMDR, Brainspotting, Trauma-Focused-CBT, DBT, and Solution-Focused Brief Therapy. I use an eclectic approach to therapy since everyone is unique and what works for someone else may not work for you. You are the most important member of this treatment team!
When you work with me, I will meet you where you are currently, and help guide you through the process of learning to use skills and tools you may already have but never learned how to use. My goal as your therapist is to validate. Together, we will discover new ways to tackle the difficulties you have experienced. I look forward to meeting you on journey.
