Welcome, I hope this finds you well. Therapy is a journey I join my clients in & I look forward to working with you to reach whatever goals you have for yourself. I approach therapy from a collaborative, strengths based perspective. I specialize in the treatment of PTSD which includes complex trauma, traumatic loss, single incident trauma, and dissociative disorders in adults. I also treat depression, anxiety, social anxiety, complicated grief and the unavoidable issues that arise from living life.
I was trained psychodynamically, am certified in EMDR & SSP ( Safe and Sound Protocol ) & utilize ego state therapy, mindfulness and somatic methods. EMDR is highly effective for the treatment of trauma as well as a number of other conditions including depression and anxiety. SSP comes from Dr. Steven Porges and Polyvagal theory, and improves ANS regulation.
This work is my passion. This journey requires tremendous strength and I am grateful for the opportunity to support you. A 15 min consultation can be set up to answer further questions.

I work with complex trauma, PTSD, dissociative disorders and acute traumatic stress. Sessions follow the treatment standard set by the International Society for Traumatic Stress and Dissociation. I am certified in EMDR and find this a highly effective method for treatment. While this is challenging work, most client's experience a gradual reduction in symptoms & increased engagement in life.
