My approach is holistic & integrative, using EMDR & other brain-based modalities to support healing of the whole person.
You’ve tried therapy before—sat on the couch re-telling your story again & again. You’ve read the self-help books & checked all the “boxes,” yet you still find yourself struggling with the impact of your past, stress, disconnection, & can’t seem to find a pathway to joy. You’re ready to try something different, but you’re a little nervous to try again. If this is you, you’re in the right place, and I’m so encouraged that you are here!

I specialize in trauma, dissociation, and embodiment work, using IFS (parts work), EMDR, and practical skills for healing.
Nothing in your internal system is random. Even the parts of yourself that you hate have an important job to do.
I work with adults and teens who feel stuck in themselves, especially those with trauma, dissociation, or complex inner worlds. Many of my clients are LGBTQ+ or have learned to shape-shift or stay hyper-aware just to stay safe. You might feel like you’re too much, not enough, or constantly switching between the two. Together, we focus on understanding how your system works and building more stability, connection, and choice, while learning to tolerate uncertainty, without trying to force a change that won't stick.

Trauma-informed therapist with advanced training in Indigenous healing, EMDR, and integrative modalities.
You’re intelligent, highly sensitive, and deeply reflective—often the one others rely on. You may appear “fine,” yet feel disconnected inside, carrying anxiety, hypervigilance, burnout, or old trauma patterns that keep repeating. You want more than coping skills; you want deep nervous-system healing and lasting change. You’re ready to look inward with honesty (not defensiveness), release what isn’t you, and become fully yourself—grounded, connected, and alive in your work, relationships, and body.

I offer a holistic approach that blends EMDR, integrative mind-body care, and movement-based therapy.
Life can feel overwhelming when anxiety, stress, or painful experiences begin to take over. You may find yourself lying awake at night replaying the day, feeling disconnected in your relationships, or carrying the weight of trauma that hasn’t fully healed. Maybe you want to let go of the past, feel more present, or simply have the tools to manage life’s stressors with more ease. Most of all, you want relief—and the confidence that you can move forward with balance and resilience.

What does a depressed tortilla say? "I don’t wanna taco ’bout it." I like to use a mixture of compassion, humor, and directness. I talk to people in a "real" way (not just cheesy "therapist" talk). I want you to feel truly seen and to share in some laughter, but I also want you to feel enough trust with me to be challenged out of your comfort zone a little - to try seeing or doing things in a different way so you can get closer to your goals/healing. I love helping people get past the things holding them back. I'm passionate about trauma, anxiety, and depression treatment.

Life brings challenges, and everyday stressors can disrupt our sense of balance. Sometimes fear keeps us from pursuing our goals, or anxiety makes even simple tasks feel overwhelming.

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.
