Existence is resistance at this point. I see my role these days is as a support and guide to help others heal, despite the times we're in. I recognize that life right now can feel like a dumpster fire, AND that it's still important to take care of each other and ourselves.
I am an ally to black, indigenous, and people of color as well as LGBTQIA folks, and those of disenfranchised and oppressed groups. As a queer, neurodivergent person myself, I have a unique perspective to help others. I provide a safe space to explore areas of your life that you may be struggling with or not feel safe to share with others.
I focus on learning about and understanding my clients. I validate their experiences and emotions and encourage them to take steps forward on their goals. EMDR therapy is my primary modality, because it is so effective to help people heal. If my profile speaks to you, please reach out to schedule a free consultation to see if we are a good fit.

EMDR therapy is an excellent evidence-based treatment. We review coping skills and facilitate developing additional skills. When working on trauma, a typical EMDR session is choosing a memory to process and then processing with eye movements or tapping. A memory is completely processed when you no longer feel ANY distress about the memory. EMDR truly helps people heal from their trauma.
