Feeling stuck in cycles of anxiety, trauma, or intrusive thoughts? Maybe your reactions don’t match the present moment, or fears keep you from moving forward. Many clients feel overwhelmed or disconnected from themselves. You’re not alone—and with trauma-focused therapy, it’s possible to regain control and find relief.
I’m an EMDRIA-certified EMDR therapist specializing in OCD, complex trauma, PTSD, phobias, anxiety, and mood disorders. I use EMDR, IFS/Ego States Therapy, Brainspotting, CBT, Flash, and Creative Arts approaches, tailoring each plan to your unique needs.
Therapy is a space where you can feel truly seen and understood. I offer in-person sessions in Cincinnati and secure telehealth appointments throughout OH, KY, IN, and AR making care accessible no matter where you are. You don’t have to do this alone—together we’ll work toward meaningful, lasting change.

I work with adults who feel stuck in patterns of anxiety, depression, OCD, PTSD, and CPTSD- often linked to adverse experiences and family dynamics. In our first few sessions, we'll uncover the underlying patterns holding you back and create a personalized plan to address the root of the issues. This approach yields true and lasting healing.

I integrate EMDR, EMDR 2.0, IFS/Ego States, Flash, Brainspotting, and elements of CBT. In our first session, we will engage in collaborative assessment and planning for treatment. We will work together to decide the right approach to help uncover and treat how past experiences and patterns impact your present. We'll work to shift those patterns so you feel more grounded, clear, and in control.
