In addition to providing clinical supervision and guiding other counselors, I have chosen to return to direct client care because I value the personal connection and healing that happens in therapy. I am trained in EMDR therapy and I work with children, adolescents, and adults who are seeking relief from trauma, anxiety, or overwhelming stress. My approach is trauma-informed, supportive, and practical. I strive to create a safe space where you feel understood and equipped with tools to move forward. EMDR is an evidence-based method that helps clients process difficult experiences in a way that talk therapy alone sometimes cannot.

I work with all age groups and offer both in-person and telehealth sessions.
Life is far from easy. It’s even harder when you don’t have someone you can talk to without worrying about judgment, criticism, or bias. My goal in the counseling relationship is to be that steady person in your life who can sit with you in both chaos and calm, help you slow it down or speed it up, but ultimately to figure out what works for you. I come to this work with years of experience as a first responder, and I carry that perspective with me — especially when sitting with trauma, crisis, and the kind of pain that doesn’t always get talked about.
