Being a human can be hard. The difficulties life throws us may leave us questioning ourselves or our relationships; however, you don’t have to navigate it all on your own. If you are looking to explore and process your own thoughts and emotions, I strive to create a nonjudgmental space for you to do so. My goal is for you to feel empowered to navigate difficulties with a little more trust in yourself despite past experiences or current circumstances. I primarily work with adults who are facing difficulties related to mood, anxiety, self-esteem, and trauma in a therapeutic environment that prioritizes safety and authenticity.
I practice from a trauma-informed and person-centered perspective and am trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) Therapy. EMDR's purpose is to aid individuals in lessening the impact of distressing memories, thoughts, etc. I blend this approach with other modalities, such as DBT, to best suit your therapeutic wants and needs.
It takes a lot of courage to reach out for help, so please let me know if you have questions or concerns about the therapy process. I look forward to collaborating with you on your healing journey.
