I use evidence-based, trauma-informed, and attachment-informed approaches, including EMDR, Brainspotting, ERP, CBT, DBT, ACT, attachment-based therapy, and strengths-based counseling.
Life is messy, people are weird, and sometimes it can feel like your brain is working against itself. I’m an engaged, collaborative therapist who shows up authentically, because I can’t ask you to do the same without meeting you there. I’ll validate what’s real, call out patterns that are keeping you stuck, and stay with you through the crying, venting, and questioning everything, sometimes all in the same session. If you’re looking for a formal, reserved therapy style, I may not be the right fit for you. But if you want a therapist who’s deeply human, a little sarcastic, and fully in your corner? Hi. I’m your girl.

As a Brainspotting practitioner, I believe healing isn’t about erasing the past, but carrying it differently.
You don’t have to carry it alone anymore. Many of the people I work with look strong on the outside but feel exhausted within. Anxiety that won’t quiet down. Depression that makes everything heavier. Trauma that still lives in your body. Or the aftermath of narcissistic or emotional abuse that left you doubting yourself. I help adults move out of survival mode and into healing. While I have experience with military and first responders, my practice is open to anyone ready to process the past and feel like themselves again.

How does brainspotting work?
Brainspotting works by using eye positioning to identify and process traumatic memories so that a client is better able to move forward and live with less fear. The theory behind brainspotting is that by identifying where a person looks when thinking of traumatic memories, a therapist will be able to guide them to focus on that spot and work with the client to get them out of the “fight, flight, freeze” response associated with the traumatic memory.
Is brainspotting an evidence-based therapy?
Brainspotting is a theory-based alternative therapy. It is one of the newest forms of treatment, so very little research has been completed that examines the mechanism by which it works. The theory behind brainspotting is that eye position can be linked to areas of the brain that store and process memory.
How effective is brainspotting?
Because it is such a new treatment, the effectiveness of brainspotting cannot be quantified. Some people have found it to be effective on its own, or in conjunction with other types of therapy. It is considered an alternative therapy, and it is popular with people for whom more traditional therapies have proven ineffective.
How long does brainspotting take to work?
A typical brainspotting session will last between 60 to 90 minutes. There is no required number of sessions needed to complete brainspotting therapy, but in many cases it is delivered over the course of about six sessions. Clients are encouraged to rate their level of distress prior to a session and again following a session, and to track progress.
