Description
I specialize in working with people who have suffered trauma or who find themselves amid a life transition, through talk therapy and EMDR. I believe anxiety and depression can be symptoms of trauma, along with low self-worth and self-esteem. As you might already know, trauma responses can show up in many areas of life that can inadvertently affect our relationships - not only with others but with ourselves as well. My philosophy is based on the belief that you are the expert in your own life and truly know what is best for you. You came equipped with all you need to thrive in this life.
