My Approach to Therapy

I offer a practical approach to provide support and guidance to clients. Whether it is urgent life stressors, relationship challenges, family issues, or trauma, there is always a way to shine some light. While a large part of my practice is working with clients using talk therapy, I am also a trauma expert trained in eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) as well as Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART). These techniques allow me to help clients become unstuck from habitual reactive states that often create havoc in relationships and other important areas of life.

My Practice & Services

I have over 15 years of experience in the field of mental health. I have created a warm office environment, and it is important to me to make sure my clients feel welcome and safe to allow for a meaningful connection. My modalities include, but are not limited to EMDR, ART, psychodynamic approach, internal family systems (understanding how we all have different parts that make up our whole self), and mindfulness. Feel free to call for a free 15 min. consult. Using a non-judgmental approach, I help with coping skills for current or past life issues that may feel overwhelming. I use a combination of talk therapy and, if appropriate and the client is comfortable, EMDR or ART. I help clients learn to identify triggers and empower themselves by gaining more personal control and understanding of behavioral patterns
