My collaborative, strengths-based approach builds insight, coping skills, and real change using CBT, DBT, EMDR, and MI.
Do you find yourself feeling overwhelmed by emotions, stuck in painful patterns, or disconnected from the people you care about most? Many of the clients I work with—children, adults, couples, and families—come to therapy feeling exhausted by anxiety, trauma, relationship conflict, or shame. You may be struggling to regulate emotions, communicate effectively, rebuild trust, or make sense of experiences that continue to affect your daily life. Whatever brings you here, you don’t have to navigate it alone.

I integrate several evidence-based treatments, like CBT, EMDR Therapy and Trauma-Sensitive Yoga to help you heal and develop tools that will melt away the tension and help you more fully believe those rational, logical thoughts that your anxious mind loves to challenge.
Are stress, worry or anxiety getting in the way of living your best life? Do you find yourself constantly trying to plan for every possible scenario? Maybe it’s hard to get excited about anything anymore, as you find your mind jumping to the worst case scenario. You’re tired, overwhelmed, and struggling to find the energy to care for the people around you, let alone yourself. You tell yourself everything will be okay, that the anxious thoughts aren’t true, but you’re still struggling. Maybe you’re starting to wonder if it’s even possible to ever live a life free of the weight of your worries.

I am licensed in Colorado and Wisconsin and hold additional certifications in EMDR, DARe-Level 1, DBT, Pain Reprocessing Therapy, and Integrative Attachment Theory.
Many of the people I work with have tried everything: medical treatment, PT, medications, and still deal with chronic pain, fatigue, or other persistent symptoms. If that’s you, you’re not alone, and your symptoms are real. In many cases, ongoing symptoms are driven by patterns in the brain and nervous system rather than ongoing injury or illness. My work focuses on helping your system shift out of those patterns so symptoms can begin to change. This doesn’t mean your symptoms are “in your head,” it means your body has learned something it can also unlearn.

The therapeutic process is one of endless discovery and self-empowerment. Seeking out help is a valiant first step in this personal journey to befriend yourself. Befriending yourself greatly opens the internal space to invite others in so that we might have fuller, richer, and more wholesome relationships with those we love and those we’ve yet to meet. If you seek to reconnect, or connect more deeply, with your inherent goodness, then please reach out. I am deeply excited by the prospect of being able to share this experience with you.

EMDR Therapists
Who is EMDR for?
EMDR was initially developed as a treatment for individuals with Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), for whom memories of a deeply distressing experience can be inadvertently triggered by random everyday events. The procedure has since been applied in the treatment of many other conditions. For example, it is used by some therapists to treat anxiety disorders including panic and phobias, depression, dissociative disorders, eating disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorders, and some personality disorders. It is suitable for adolescents and adults.

Why do people need EMDR?
People need EMDR as a way to manage distressing memories that in some way hamper the ability to function in the present. The procedure is believed to target the way memories are stored in the brain. Evidence indicates that past disturbing experiences cause ongoing distress because they were not adequately processed, and when such memories are triggered in the present, they are accompanied by all the emotions, thoughts, and physical sensations as the initial experience.

What problems does EMDR treat?
First and foremost, EMDR is intended as a treatment for PTSD, to defuse distressing memories that intrude on and impair everyday functioning. It is also often used to help those who are subject to panic attacks, phobias, and other forms of anxiety. In addition, EMDR has been used to treat individuals with depression, eating disorders, and personality disorders.

What happens in EMDR therapy?
First the therapist takes an individual’s history, and then the therapist and client decide which distressing experience(s) will be the target(s) of the exercise, delivered via a side-to-side visual stimulus requiring lateral eye movements. The client will be asked to activate thoughts, feelings, and any body sensations related to the troubling experience. The eye movements are said to reduce the emotional charge of the memory, so that the experience can then be safely discussed with the therapist and digested, minimizing its ability to trigger anxiety.
