Easy to talk to, down to earth, "real," understanding (empathetic), non-judgmental.

My approach is conversational, a little ADHD and a little dry humor. Beyond that, I offer a welcoming, safe space for people to feel comfortable sharing what is often their deepest thoughts and feelings, as we weave different approaches into sessions

I find that people often compare their trauma to others', but it's not a competition; if something affected you, however minor it may seem, it is worth addressing! We can address past or present events, and also arm the future-you with coping skills

Are experiencing overwhelm in their current situation, feel their pasts are holding them back, and/or who have experienced a more immediate trauma that needs to be reprocessed through EMDR.

Many people find it hard to open up; a lot of people naturally seemed to open up to me, so I wanted the skills to help them!

Telehealth is great because you can be in your home, where you are hopefully comfortable, and just click on the HIPAA-compliant Zoom link!

I will try to meet you where you are emotionally; I'm pretty patient and not pushy, I won't make you go anywhere you don't want to go. (Although if we build a strong rapport I might (nicely) call you out on something we are working on!)
