Often the first step towards making a change is taking a realistic look at where you've been, where you are now, and where you want to be. Although it can be painfully difficult at first, you can begin making changes, one day at a time, that will take you closer to living the life you desire. Using EMDR and talk therapy, we'll focus on healing the wounds of the past, finding joy in the present, and bringing clarity to your future. It's time for you let go of the things that hold you back and start to discover all the ways in which you were meant to shine. Hope and healing are at the heart of what I have to offer.
With over 35 years of personal experience in almost every age and every stage of life, I understand that life can be hard, relationships can be painful, and stress can be overwhelming. I have worked with trauma, interpersonal and sexual violence, am certified in EMDR, and am very creative in helping you incorporate effective parenting and coping skills.
Sometimes all we need is someone to really listen with an empathetic ear, someone who understands, someone to be our "bridge over troubled water." I am willing to be that bridge for you. Together we can create a plan of action that will help you step by step in your journey towards hope, healing, health, and happiness. I look forward to working with you.
