I specialize in helping people deal with the natural ups and downs of life, as well as overwhelming experiences that leave a more lasting impact. I empower clients to create lasting change through self-discovery and skill building. I am also trained in eye-movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) for individuals seeking relief from post-traumatic stress.
My counseling style is conversational, collaborative and client-led. My clients tell me I'm good at asking questions that help them have "aha!" moments and experience powerful emotional shifts. Together, we will figure out what ways of thinking are holding you back and re-write your story so that you feel prepared to face whatever comes your way.
As human beings, we can't avoid suffering, but we can find ways to cope with it. I look forward to hearing from you and to help you meet yourself more fully.
