Central to the success of Psychotherapy is a safe, supportive Therapeutic Relationship. I prioritize creating a relational dynamic with my clients to build trust and identify areas of strength and growth. I am a Certified EMDR Practitioner specializing in Trauma Processing, Mood Disorders (like Anxiety/Depression), Eating Disorders, Life Transitions, and Gender/Sexuality. EMDR Processing supports recovery from Trauma, embodied distress, and deeply held negative beliefs. My Practice centers supporting LBTQIA+ and Gender Nonbinary/Gender Noncomforming adolescents and adults through transitions and Mental Health distress.
I use various Evidence Based Modalities, always with a Client-Centered, Trauma Informed, Social Justice-oriented lens. These include EMDR, CBT, Psychoeducation, and Psychodynamic Psychotherapy. Our aim is to make sense of the origins of distress and reduce symptoms. I am also trained in Eating Disorder treatment modalities for those seeking ED Treatment.
Reaching out for support can be challenging, both emotionally and logistically. I would love to be of support on your journey. Please get in touch if you sense that my specializations, methods, and orientation may align with your needs. My ultimate goal is to reduce the impact of Mental Health symptoms on your life, relationships, and daily functioning.
