My website
I am passionate about supporting individuals as they embark on their healing journey. I specialize in helping individuals understand and alleviate the distress caused by trauma through the use of somatic, Polyvagal, AEDP, and EMDR therapy. Additionally, I provide Animal-Assisted Therapy with my dog, Momo. I believe in the importance of a safe, supportive, and collaborative environment in order to process thoughts, feelings, and experiences as we work to meet your goals.
In my practice, I work to understand your experiences through trauma- and Polyvagal-informed lenses. In addition to being trained in EMDR, I am also trained and frequently use somatic-, AEDP-, and attachment-informed therapies. I am certified through the Polyvagal Institute in Polyvagal-informed therapy.
Often, it is difficult to feel safe and connect with ourselves and others, especially when we feel alone in the world. If you are ready to begin your healing journey, I would be honored to work with you.
