I have a wide range of clinical experience working with individuals and family systems impacted by OCD or trauma.
I use a combination of Exposure Response/Ritual Prevention and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy techniques to help clients meet and maintain gains made in treatment. While ERP addresses the primary concerns bringing a person to treatment, ACT promotes their ability to accept the challenges that are faced and commit to the ongoing work of healing.

It can be difficult to put words to our visual experiences and emotions, especially when trauma has occurred.
I use a person-centered, trauma-informed, integrative approach in all of the therapy modalities I offer. I blend techniques from strengths-based, solution-focused, talk, mindfulness, arts, and somatic therapies in order to invite the whole person into the room and use a holistic approach. Being EMDR trained helps strengthen my approach to targeting trauma.

If you want help in managing trauma, major depression, anxiety, ADHD, or other struggles, I hope you will allow me to be in your corner.
Many of my clients are struggling to overcome situations and expectations that feel way beyond their control. Whether these are coming from the inside or outside they can be overwhelming and painful. It can feel like we are no match for our thoughts and feelings but my clients learn to recognize their resources, using them to tame despair, negativity bias, fear and isolation. In that process clients experience their relationships and actions aligning more with what they really want.
