I believe everyone is on a journey towards healing. Do you struggle with emotional pain, stuck patterns, or distressing memories that just won’t go away? I specialize in helping individuals—adults and children—heal and thrive through transformative approaches such as EMDR, IFS, and Music Therapy.
I am also a board certified music therapist. Music can be a valuable tool towards healing. I work towards building a therapeutic relationship in your journey towards healing.
In addition to EMDR, I also offer Internal Family Systems (IFS) therapy, which is a powerful method for working with the different parts of yourself. By guiding you through the process of connecting with these parts and building internal harmony, you can experience profound healing and self-empowerment.
