I am trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing), a dynamic technique to treat trauma.
With all the ups and downs that life throws at us daily, we can all use someone to talk to when things become overwhelming. You may need to process a traumatic experience that you have faced in the past or present. Maybe you need someone to help you navigate your anxiety and depression. Or maybe you need someone to empathetically listen and help you work through your emotions and experiences in a non-judgmental, safe, and comforting environment. I invite you to come and sit on my couch and allow me to guide you on your journey to healing and self-awareness. ~Verily, with every hardship comes ease.~

I have a passion for working with adults with unresolved childhood trauma, no matter how "big" or "small" it may seem.
Perhaps you have once more found yourself in a familiar space of pain. You have been here before and it has become unbearable at this point. The burdens that you carry are overwhelming, and you are feeling that who you have become a shell of who you once were. Maybe you haven't felt like yourself since you were a kid. You've tried to apply what you know in your mind to be true, but there's something that keeps that truth from being felt at your core. You long for healing and rest.

I am trained in EMDR which has made a significant impact on my theoretical orientation overall and strengthens my approach to therapy to help individuals overcome and heal from trauma.
Art therapy processes connect the heart, mind, body, and soul to promote healing, becoming, and knowing. Art therapy is for all ages and there is no right or wrong way. Art therapy is unique because it goes beyond traditional talk therapy by promoting your inner voice, inner wisdom, and inner psyche to emerge through a variety of creative techniques incorporating, symbols, pictures, line, shape, color, movement, drama, music, and metaphor. When it is difficult to put words to our thoughts and emotions, art therapy helps bypass these barriers.

Trauma and PTSD Therapists
When should I seek treatment for trauma?
Not everyone who undergoes trauma needs therapy to heal, but many do. If, after experiencing a traumatic event, you find yourself struggling with symptoms such as nightmares, dissociation, irritability, or emotional numbness—especially if these symptoms last more than a month and are severe enough to interfere with your daily functioning—you may benefit from seeking out therapy with a trauma-informed provider.
How long does trauma therapy take?
Different types of therapy for trauma unfold on different timelines. Prolonged exposure therapy and cognitive processing therapy, for example, each take about three months, while trauma-informed CBT may last anywhere from 8 to 25 sessions. Other approaches, especially those that are less structured or that incorporate elements from multiple modalities, may be more open-ended, though many patients report feeling better within the first few months of treatment.
What happens if trauma is left untreated?
Unaddressed trauma can have serious—even devastating—effects on relationships, career, and day-to-day functioning. Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD) can lead people to distrust or lash out at others, making it difficult to maintain intimate relationships; it can also trigger symptoms such as flashbacks or hyperreactivity that can interfere with a person’s ability to function effectively, personally and/or professionally. Some sufferers turn to drugs to find relief. Symptoms may lessen on their own with time, but there is no guarantee that PTSD will resolve on its own.
Can PTSD come back after treatment?
It is possible for PTSD symptoms to recur months or years after successful treatment. This is because, like most mental health disorders, it is not possible to “cure” PTSD, and stressful life events may cause symptoms to recur in even the most resilient individuals. There is no shame in re-experiencing PTSD symptoms nor in returning to therapy when such relapses occur; indeed, many forms of trauma therapy explicitly encourage periodic “maintenance sessions” to reinforce coping skills and ensure that symptoms stay manageable.
