About

As a trauma therapist, my mission is to create a safe, empathetic space where individuals can learn to heal from the effects of trauma. I believe that trauma can affect every aspect of life—emotionally, physically, and relationally—and that healing is possible and essential. My approach is grounded in a deep respect for each person's unique experience, with over 25 years of experience, I tailor my therapeutic methods to meet the individual needs of my clients. I specialize in working with individuals who suffer from trauma, mental health concerns, substance use disorder, relational abuse and family conflicts. I specialize in evidence-based modalities such as EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and Somatic Experiencing, which empower clients to process and integrate traumatic experiences at a pace that feels safe and manageable. These approaches, alongside my emphasis on building trust and fostering resilience
