Life can be a lot. Maybe you feel anxious, burned out, disconnected, or tired of holding everything together while pretending you are fine. Maybe you keep finding yourself in the same relationship dynamics, emotional spirals, or old patterns and wonder, “Why do I keep doing this?”
You may also be navigating trauma, grief, ADHD, depression, postpartum changes, divorce, family conflict, or relationship stress. My approach is warm, honest, collaborative, and trauma-informed. Therapy is not about becoming someone else; it is about understanding yourself more deeply and creating a life that feels more honest, connected, and meaningful.

After completing a MA in Psychology at The State University of New York at New Paltz, and a PhD in Clinical Psychology at The University of South Dakota, I became certified in EMDR and trauma healing bodywork including Transforming Touch and Somatic Resilience and Regulation.
If you are someone struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship difficulties, chronic health issues, addiction, trauma (shock, complex and/or attachment trauma), and/or having a hard time living life to its fullest, and you want a safe place to learn, grow and heal, I might be able to help. Sometimes talk therapy alone is enough to resolve whatever ails you, but when there is chronic stress or trauma that has persisted in the mind/body for a prolonged period, therapies that take a "bottom up" approach can have more of a lasting impact.

Supervised by Ashton Fisher Jimenez, M.S. LPC-S (License 66488):
I once heard a saying that eventually, the pain of staying stuck will outweigh the fear of moving forward. People often stay stuck because they’re not sure what to do next and are afraid to try something new—sometimes, even when it hurts, the familiarity just feels safer. But what if, with support, you could find a clearer path forward? People often struggle with the stressors of everyday life with limited resources and then blame themselves when their relationships, finances, or careers do not work out.

I view therapy as a collaborative and holistic approach to the navigation of the human condition and as a safe space to explore everything life throws our way. As an existentialist and a relational therapist, my goal is to emphasize identity development, emotional insight and regulation, freedom and responsibility, effective communication, relational interdependence, and the creation of meaning.

I believe that our thoughts have so much power over who we are and where we are in life, and changing a person’s thoughts can empower and promote an individual in all aspects of life. Two of my strengths are empathy and being an encourager, which helps me to connect to others. I am an EMDR Certified therapist and would like to work with those experiencing trauma of all ages. I have a special place in my heart for those suffering from grief, loss, and chronic disease. I was a Medical Assistant who worked with Oncology patients and saw the need for that population and their families to get counseling.

How does somatic therapy work?
Somatic therapy is a form of treatment that focuses on how the body and mind are interconnected. In this approach, physical symptoms are addressed because they may in fact signal emotional distress. Somatic therapists combine mindfulness, talk therapy, breathwork, yoga, dance, and physical manipulations of the body to help patients become more attuned to what their body is telling them.
Is EMDR a somatic therapy?
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a form of somatic therapy, as it incorporates mental and physical principles. EMDR involves remembering a traumatic experience while allowing one’s eyes to track a side-to-side visual stimulus from a therapist. This lateral eye movement is believed to diminish the painful power of the memory so that it can be discussed with a therapist.
Is somatic therapy evidence-based?
Somatic therapy has been researched and studied, and some forms of somatic therapy are found to be effective in treating a wide range of conditions. Because somatic therapy encompasses many techniques, some, such as EMDR and meditation, have been studied more than others.
What is somatic trauma therapy?
Somatic trauma therapy is based on the idea that when people experience trauma, they can become stuck in the “freeze” part of a “fight, flight, or freeze” response. In this state, trauma can manifest itself both mentally and physically—through tension in the muscles, anxiety, and stress. Popular forms of somatic trauma therapy include EMDR, sensorimotor therapy, and somatic experiencing.
