You may feel weighed down by unresolved trauma, anxiety, or depression and tired of simply managing symptoms. I’m a Certified EMDR Therapist and Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 15 years of experience providing trauma-informed therapy for adults. I specialize in EMDR therapy to help clients process painful memories, reduce emotional distress, and build resilience. I offer a warm, nonjudgmental space where healing can happen at your pace and meaningful change feels possible.
I specialize in EMDR therapy for adults struggling with trauma, anxiety, and depression. EMDR helps reprocess distressing memories so they lose emotional intensity. I integrate EMDR with CBT and trauma-informed therapy to support emotional regulation, clarity, and long-term healing.
Beginning therapy takes courage, especially when past experiences still feel heavy. I offer a calm, nonjudgmental space where you can feel supported while working through difficult emotions at your own pace. Healing is possible, and you don’t have to do it alone.

I often use EMDR in my practice. In your first session, we will explore disturbing experiences that brought you to therapy. With EMDR, we will look at how traumatic experiences affect your emotions, thoughts, and perceptions of the world. During treatment, I will help you in reprocessing disturbing experiences and getting to the root of the issue.
