(she/her)
I am an EMDRIA Certified EMDR Therapist specializing in trauma and PTSD, with a strong commitment to evidence-based, ethical care. I take a holistic and integrative approach to therapy, drawing from multiple modalities to address the full picture of each client’s experience. As an EMDR consultant-in-training, I value professionalism, ongoing education, and high-quality clinical practice. I am also a Reiki Master and incorporate mind-body awareness to support healing, balance, and resilience.
In our first session, we’ll spend time getting to know what’s bringing you to therapy and building a clear understanding of your experiences and concerns. We’ll talk through your background, what feels most important to you right now, and what you’re hoping to gain from therapy. Together, we’ll begin identifying next steps and possible approaches for treatment, with the focus always centered on your needs, goals, and comfort.
My work is distinguished by an integrative, trauma-informed approach that blends evidence-based and holistic modalities such as EMDR and CBT. I bring a calm, grounded presence to therapy and focus on creating a safe, collaborative space where clients feel supported and empowered. I value ongoing education and clinical excellence, which allows me to provide high-quality, ethical treatment tailored to each individual. Clients often experience meaningful insight, increased stability, and lasting change as we work together to address both the root causes of distress and present-day needs.
I enjoy working with young adults and adults who may be experiencing anxiety, career-related stress, or simply feeling overwhelmed by life. I have a special passion for supporting individuals who have experienced trauma or are navigating symptoms of PTSD, and I strive to create a safe, supportive space where you feel heard and understood. Together, we can work to process past experiences, build healthier coping skills, and help you feel more grounded and confident in your day-to-day life. My approach is collaborative and client-centered, and I’m here to support you at your own pace every step of the way.
EMDR
I specialize in EMDR therapy and use this evidence-based approach to help clients process trauma, distressing experiences, and negative core beliefs. EMDR allows us to move beyond talk therapy by targeting how experiences are stored in the nervous system, supporting lasting change. I am also a consultant-in-training in EMDR theory and prioritize ethical, high-quality EMDR treatment in my practice.
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
CBT is one of the approaches I use to help clients understand how thoughts, emotions, and behaviors are connected. Together, we work to identify patterns that may be keeping clients stuck and develop practical strategies to support meaningful change. My use of CBT is collaborative, flexible, and tailored to my client's individual needs.
Eclectic
My work is grounded in an eclectic approach, meaning I draw from a variety of therapeutic theories to support each individual’s healing process. I believe therapy should adapt to the person, not the other way around, and I intentionally tailor interventions based on what feels most effective and supportive for my client. This allows for a flexible, personalized therapy experience.
Trauma Informed Care
I practice from a trauma-informed perspective, recognizing the impact that past experiences can have on emotional well-being, relationships, and the nervous system. My approach prioritizes safety, choice, collaboration, and empowerment while avoiding re-traumatization. Treatment is paced intentionally and tailored to each client’s needs.
