My experience in the therapy field has taken me on many paths! I have worked as a social worker linking people to services and resources and as a clinical coordination of care for populations managing mental health concerns as well as cognitive disabilities. I have been a community behavioral health clinician providing individual and group therapy as well as working on an integrated care team with physical health providers. In my therapy practice, I work with anyone seeking EMDR for either single incident or multiple/complex trauma events. I also love working with perinatal populations! I see individuals 18 years or older in my practice. I take a trauma-informed approach in all that I do and want to make this experience work for you!

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

Our first session (or first few) will continue our discussion of who you are, how you came to be yourself, and what your present needs are for our time together. We will work to gain comfort in our sessions and establish how we will work on your therapeutic goals.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

The areas I specialize in therapy come from a personal and clinical perspective. I feel that this enriches our experience together and can ground the work from a real, authentic lived space. I am a partner, parent, and life-long learner of how to handle my own mental health and use that along with my therapeutic skills to guide our work.

Describe the client(s) you are best positioned to serve.

I am excited to work with anyone seeking EMDR for either single incident or multiple/complex trauma events. I also love working with perinatal populations! I see individuals 18 years or older in my practice.
