Most of my clients come to me feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or carrying heavy experiences they’ve tried to push through on their own. Many of whom are military veterans, first responders, survivors of human trafficking, or professionals with highly sensitive roles who need a safe, confidential space to process trauma. They’re often dealing with PTSD, anxiety, flashbacks, or relationship struggles, and they’re ready for real change. I can help by combining EMDR with practical, evidence-based tools to reprocess painful memories so they no longer control your present. You’ll gain clarity, reduce anxiety, rebuild trust in yourself again.
Specializing in trauma and PTSD with EMDR, I bring deep experience working with military veterans, human trafficking survivors, sexual trauma and deeply rooted hurts. My background includes forensic interviewing and supporting clients with high levels of trauma. I help adults process difficult experiences and move forward with clarity and strength.
Together, we will build attainable goals structured by you. I will help you develop positive coping skills and help you rebuild hope that will encourage you to thrive and reach those goals. Sessions available telehealth, and in-home (Concierge / Cash pay only and by special request for North County San Diego, CA). Individual sessions start at $200.
