My website
Welcome! I am a trained EMDR & Brainspotting therapist offering services across California for those aged 13+. If you are looking for a therapist who offers a warm, active, and engaged style and who brings a wealth of training and experience to sessions, we might be a good fit. I work comfortably with challenges such as trauma, grief, anxiety, depression, first responder/military issues, and family dynamics. This might be a great time to take a leap of faith with a trusted professional who is here to support you in pursuing peace, confidence, self-acceptance, and authenticity.
I utilize an integrated approach to tailoring to each person, using an attachment focus and leaning on EMDR, Brainspotting, Psychodynamic/Insight Oriented, CBT & ACT. I lean heavily on client-centered lenses, focusing on insight and depth work, but with extensive training in brief modalities, I can support more direct and acute concerns as well.
I look at the whole person by creating a collaborative relationship where we work together to uncover the root causes of your suffering. I believe in hope, strength, and resiliency and I hold that for my clients. My goal is to embody a warmth and curiosity with my clients that creates a space of safety and openness without shame, guilt, or fear.

I often pull from various types of therapy to support my clients depending on what each person's individual needs are, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, EMDR, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy.
