Get to know me

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

In our first session, I help clients feel welcomed, comfortable, and safe. We'll go over informed consent and expectations of treatment. There will be a lot of questions and information gathering to help me understand you while providing insight into the function of your experiences. I take a collaborative approach that supports you, builds on your strengths, and increases your ability to cope with life's current and future challenges.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

Having experience specializing in trauma and self-esteem work. I worked in community mental health where I provided individual therapy (children, teens, adults, and older adults), couples therapy, and family therapy. I also provided group therapy to victims of domestic violence for 4 years. I was then inspired to specialize in trauma work and completed my training in EMDR through the EMDR Institute. When I'm not providing therapy, I am working as a clinical supervisor supporting intern therapists toward licensure.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

Clients choose to work with me after experiencing a traumatic event(s), loss of a loved one (i.e., death, divorce, seperation), relationship difficulties, or they want to gain more insight and personal growth. Whether you are feeling stuck, overwhelmed, disconnected from the people you love, frustrated by a relationship, or burdened by stress, anxiety, or sadness -I can help. You deserve relief
