My counseling experience includes working with children, individuals, couples, and families. My approach is gentle, safe and non-judgmental. Each individual, couple, and family is unique, thus I provide varying treatment approaches. I draw on approaches that integrate mind-body-spirit; behavioral; and strength-based. When I work with couples and families I drawn from a systematic approach, meaning the couple and/or family unit functions as a whole and when one person is struggling, so is the rest of the family. My role is to help assist you in discovering the unhealthy patterns that are keeping you stuck.

I have experience with a broad range of issues and encourage an honest, relationship-based approach to therapy. We work together to explore the issues most important to you. I believe that everyone is capable of change, though easy to say, it is very challenging to put into action. Therapy creates a safe space to reflect upon your world and history. It is a mindful process to accept and redefine yourself. It is a space to look at what parts are activated in your life and which parts feel quiet.

Does anxiety make it hard to fully enjoy your day-to-day life? Do you find yourself overthinking, feeling emotionally drained, or stuck in patterns that keep repeating no matter how much effort you put into changing them? Many people feel like they’re constantly pushing themselves to keep everything together—showing up for work, relationships, and responsibilities—while another part of them feels overwhelmed, exhausted, or unsure of what they truly want. Over time, this inner tension can leave you feeling disconnected from yourself and from the life you want to be living.

Please note: I do not have openings for new clients. I work with adults who are struggling with day to day stresses, life transitions or survivors of trauma.

I believe each us embody an innate wisdom and deep knowing of our strengths and beauty. Sometimes when we experience stress or unexpected change we can lose touch with a positive sense of self and the resources that allow us to thrive in a challenging world. A compassionate, supportive, and collaborative therapeutic relationship strengthens our ability to move through some of our most challenging moments. Together, we will create the conditions for vulnerability and authenticity in a mutual effort to undergo the difficult work of personal transformation.

I am currently engaged in ongoing training for attachment-focus EMDR, EFT (Emotionally Focused Therapy) for couples, and am under supervision for somatic therapy (Sensorimotor Psychotherapy).
Every individual is working through various experiences and emotions that are influenced by the world around them. As a counselor, it is my desire to foster an environment of healing, exploration, and empowerment. My approach to counseling looks at the systems that surround us including family, environment, and society. These systems have a profound impact on our multiple identities including race, ethnicity, gender, orientation, ability, body size, and more. It is the intersection of these identities that make us who we are.

Who is EMDR for?
EMDR was initially developed as a treatment for individuals with Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), for whom memories of a deeply distressing experience can be inadvertently triggered by random everyday events. The procedure has since been applied in the treatment of many other conditions. For example, it is used by some therapists to treat anxiety disorders including panic and phobias, depression, dissociative disorders, eating disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorders, and some personality disorders. It is suitable for adolescents and adults.
Why do people need EMDR?
People need EMDR as a way to manage distressing memories that in some way hamper the ability to function in the present. The procedure is believed to target the way memories are stored in the brain. Evidence indicates that past disturbing experiences cause ongoing distress because they were not adequately processed, and when such memories are triggered in the present, they are accompanied by all the emotions, thoughts, and physical sensations as the initial experience.
What problems does EMDR treat?
First and foremost, EMDR is intended as a treatment for PTSD, to defuse distressing memories that intrude on and impair everyday functioning. It is also often used to help those who are subject to panic attacks, phobias, and other forms of anxiety. In addition, EMDR has been used to treat individuals with depression, eating disorders, and personality disorders.
What happens in EMDR therapy?
First the therapist takes an individual’s history, and then the therapist and client decide which distressing experience(s) will be the target(s) of the exercise, delivered via a side-to-side visual stimulus requiring lateral eye movements. The client will be asked to activate thoughts, feelings, and any body sensations related to the troubling experience. The eye movements are said to reduce the emotional charge of the memory, so that the experience can then be safely discussed with the therapist and digested, minimizing its ability to trigger anxiety.
