I hold degrees in both drama therapy and clinical social work and am pursuing certification in Attachment-Focused EMDR through the Parnell Institute.
My approach is collaborative, creative, and client-centered.

My practice draws from elements of EMDR, psychodynamic, and mindfulness based therapies.
Searching for a therapist can feel discouraging at times and raise endless questions. What exactly am I looking for? Will I feel understood? Would I even benefit from therapy?

I approach therapy from a place of humor, curiosity and an honest desire to help you uncover those places where you feel most stuck in order to build the life that you want.

The need to feel heard and understood exists within all of us and is vital to thrive in life.

Holding your story with great care, I can offer you a safe haven so that you can reach your own healing and a sense of empowerment in your life.

I am certified in DBT, extensively trained in IFS and EMDR.
