Get to know me

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

After your intake , we will discuss scheduling your first session. Typically, we will review your treatment goals and begin working on coping resources while developing a therapeutic alliance. If you are seeking EMDR sessions, they can be conducted virtually, but it is important to note re-processing will not occur in the first few sessions. We will focus on creating a treatment plan for memories and make sure you are educated on what the experience will be like before beginning the re-processing part of EMDR.

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

Avoidance and Acceptance in grief, anxiety, and trauma: It can be confusing and overwhelming to examine things head-on. I have had the honor of coming alongside clients who have faced many terrible events to help them break free from the past. I can help you learn how to understand and respond to your body when your emotions create physical symptoms that lead to distress. I can assist you in learning how to live a life that still honors who you are and in identifying areas of meaningfulness for you

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

Through working with various populations I have discovered that clients who are dealing with PTSD/Trauma, Grief/ Loss, and Anxiety tend to respond well to the interventions I offer. My background in art therapy, EMDR, CBT, and mindfulness enables me to utilize the most appropriate tools to better serve my clients. I have used EMDR to address various traumas (chronic, sexual assault, death, combat, natural disaster, childhood abuse, car accidents, and neglect). My style allows me to be a compassionate guide as you process your hurt and pain to move toward healing. Clients will gain a deeper understanding of how different losses (job, house, dreams, relationships, physical abilities, mental abilities) can impact them and find the skills to help them process.
