Let's Connect (708) 394-7977

I am a holistic and culturally sensitive, EMDR therapist specializing in trauma-informed care. I am passionate about helping individuals navigate and heal from complex emotional and psychological challenges. I have a particular focus on working with survivors of sexual abuse. Additionally, I support clients dealing with PTSD, C-PTSD, dissociative disorders, anxiety, mood disorders, depression, and women’s issues.
I primarily utilize EMDR therapy and Somatic Experiencing but still hold an eclectic approach. I place a huge importance on building a trusting relationship with you to promote comfortability and security.
I have experience working with individuals who have trauma, depression, mood disorders, anxiety, relationship difficulties, and life transitioning issues. Together we can explore and understand the reasoning behind prominent issues while working towards healing and resolution. I would be honored to assist you in your healing journey.
