Trauma can strike anyone at any time, leaving both visible and invisible scars. If you're seeking a companion to support your journey from hurt to healing, I am here for you. I can guide you on your path, explain how trauma affects the brain, and show you methods to overcome it. My expertise encompasses various forms of trauma, including childhood abuse, religious trauma, medical trauma, shaming, single-event trauma, and trauma from past therapy, as well as managing anger, self-harm, anxiety, depression, and self-esteem issues. I am an ally of the LGBTQIA2S+ community.
Understanding that therapy is not a "One Size Fits All" service, I advocate for a collaborative approach. I enable my clients to participate in creating their treatment plans and setting achievable goals, ensuring that each individual receives tailored and attentive care. My training includes EMDR, ACT, IFS, CBT, and several other trauma-focused modalities.
I hold the belief that individuals are not broken, merely wounded, and that wounds are capable of healing. It is my desire to assist you in discovering healing and tranquility. As a therapist, I actively listen to my clients and collaborate with them to uncover inventive and effective methods to enhance their lives.
