As a complex trauma therapist, I help individuals move through some of the most difficult moments in their lives - the strong emotional tides and automatic responses that are often inherent to unexpected life changes, or past traumatic experiences. Our everyday responses to stress - anxiety, anger, irritability, bouts of depression, or fatigue and the effectiveness of our ability to cope with current stressors are often related to painful past experiences, some recent and some from long ago. My practice is dedicated to offering individuals the supports necessary to navigate through pain from our past to a place of resiliency.
As a therapist, I specialize in the treatment of PTSD and Complex PTSD. As a seasoned clinician I am certified and trained in EMDR, Gestalt Psychotherapy, Mindfulness, and IFS informed EMDR - the treatments most effective for addressing the impact of trauma and its legacy. My work is supported by DBT approaches, in which I am also comprehensively trained.
I am a perceptive, active listener who provides a warm, safe atmosphere where clients can express their inner life at their own pace. Through a supportive therapeutic process, my clients discover and build upon their own inner strengths and resources, which they learn to rely upon outside of therapy in their daily lives.

My clients present with a wide array of symptoms. Some are experiencing mood dys-regulation such as depression, anxiety, anger and irritability. Some are experiencing bouts of hyper-vigilance or mistrust. Many are struggling with attention challenges and distractibility, as well as issues related to sleep and appetite. And many are struggling with dissociation and a loss of one's sense of self.

Therapy is a learning process. When we are stuck in our moods, emotions or behavioral habits, most often learning is stuck too. All the treatments and modalities that I use from DBT skill-building to IFS parts-mapping to EMDR trauma processing are all geared towards helping you to cultivate perspective and self-understanding so that you can reconnect with your own innate ability to learn & grow.
