Provider information

Description

I work with adults, youth, people in all forms of relationships, and families. My practice integrates EMDR and trauma-focused therapy to help clients process painful or overwhelming experiences, reduce distress, and reconnect with a sense of safety, agency, and balance. I approach EMDR through a relational and response based lens, recognizing the ways people have resisted harm and upheld dignity even in the face of adversity. I also believe therapy does not need to be all serious; we can share a laugh, find lightness, and create space for hope and connection along the way.
