Caring for your mental and emotional health is like making an investment that never stops giving back. By teaming up to work together in a warm non-judgmental environment, we can create the changes you would like to see in your life. As a Certified EMDR Therapist & Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, I use powerful brain-based therapies that truly help people to heal from past trauma and transform their present and future. I really care about my clients; I offer flexible scheduling and a sliding scale because I believe that mental health should be available to all.
Handling uncertainty in today's world has been especially hard for kids/teens who already struggle with self-image, school, friends/family, etc. Besides working with adults, I use Play Therapy, Sandtray, Mindfulness, Stress Reduction to help kids lower anxiety, depression, resolve underlying attachment /safety issues & increase emotional self-regulation.
Therapy works best when there's a great match between both people. Let's see if we're a good fit, and if I am not the right therapist for you, I'll help you find someone who is! Call me for a free consultation.
