I strive to create a space where you can rediscover a sense of curiosity and authenticity for your personal experience, and explore how this manifests in the here-and-now of therapy.
Not only help you to feel better, but ultimately to help you *get* better. We'll focus on how your symptoms impact you right here, right now, and make meaningful changes to your habits and routines to improve your life.

I treat trauma through the lens of mind/body connection. I primarily use EMDR, which bridges the trauma stored in your body/mind/spirit to allow healing, CBT, which helps you identify and replace unhealthy thoughts, and DBT to teach coping skills
