My Approach to Helping

Recognizing the profound impact of past traumas on life—leading to negative core beliefs, anxiety, depression, and challenges in coping—I stress the significance of self-directed healing and personal growth. Whether you are currently facing difficulties or grappling with past wounds, the first step toward improvement involves introspection and personal development.

As an LMFT and EMDR Therapist, I support individuals in overcoming their challenges. Utilizing my clinical expertise and diverse background, I provide evidence-based therapies for a variety of mental health issues. I specialize in adult individual therapy, addressing concerns such as anxiety, depression, PTSD, trauma, and other mood disorders. Through EMDR, I help clients reprocess past traumas that may be affecting their current well-being.

I am dedicated to creating a safe, non-judgmental, and supportive environment for my clients. With an eclectic, holistic, and personalized therapeutic approach, I integrate evidence-based methods including Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Solution-Focused Therapy, mindfulness techniques, and EMDR. My expertise includes anxiety, depression, PTSD, and trauma-related conditions.

More Info About My Practice

To schedule your first therapy session, please contact me by phone or email. In our initial 50-minute meeting, we'll delve into the reasons prompting your therapy pursuit, your aspirations for it, and pinpoint your objectives. Together, we'll navigate how I can aid you and jointly strive for your improvement. I'm here to lend an ear and offer support.

If you're grappling with stress and a sense of imbalance, therapy can serve as a beneficial resource. Let's collaborate to equip you with coping mechanisms and restore equilibrium in your life. Reach out to book your initial appointment and embark on the first stride toward enhanced well-being.

I am a Certified EMDR Therapist. Although both EMDR therapists and Certified EMDR Therapists are qualified to provide EMDR therapy, Certified EMDR Therapists have completed more extensive training, supervision, and ongoing education. This certification ensures a higher level of credibility.

My View on the Purpose of Psychotherapy

In my view, the therapeutic relationship is an essential component of facilitating positive change in your life. As a therapist, I employ a range of therapeutic approaches, which I customize to meet your individual needs. My goal is to promote self-awareness, effective communication, personal growth, and healthy living. EMDR is a critical aspect of my therapeutic approach, and I use an eclectic approach to therapy, integrating techniques from CBT, Solution-Focused, and Psychodynamic approaches.

Groups I Work With

    In my therapeutic practice, I specialize in supporting individuals who have undergone various forms of trauma, encompassing physical or sexual abuse, verbal or emotional mistreatment, and other traumatic experiences. Survivors of trauma often contend with symptoms like flashbacks, nightmares, hypervigilance, and avoidance behaviors. Additionally, I assist individuals who grapple with recurring patterns of self-criticism, self-doubt, and negative inner dialogue. Such negative self-talk can profoundly impact self-esteem, interpersonal connections, and overall well-being.

    Childhood trauma, spanning neglect, emotional abuse, and familial dysfunction, can yield enduring effects, fostering attachment challenges, diminished self-regard, and hurdles in fostering healthy relationships. For these groups, therapeutic modalities such as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) can prove particularly advantageous.
