LCSW, 11 years of experience
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 and therapists seeking therapy for themselves! 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!
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.
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.
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 and therapists seeking therapy for themselves! I see individuals 18 years or older in my practice.
I am a certified EMDR clinician and an EMDRIA Approved Consultant. I use EMDR in my practice through a polyvagal lens to support multiple present day stressor and patterns, looking back at experiences that have influenced how you engage in the world around you. We use EMDR to process through and understand these impacts and create change in your day to day life.
