About this provider

Clients I Work With

My clients want to face what is getting in the way of their living happier, more fulfilled lives. They want to talk about their struggles and then create a plan to move on so they can be at peace with themselves and others.

Approach

I’m a trauma-attuned EMDR and IFS therapist who helps people break free from self-doubt, perfectionism, and old patterns that quietly hold them back. You’ve done the work, but something still feels unresolved. With EMDR and IFS, we’ll move at a pace that feels safe while getting to the roots of what’s been stuck - so you can reconnect with your clarity, trust yourself fully, and step into a grounded, confident life. EMDR and IFS Therapy: Healing That Fits Your Needs Your healing journey is unique, so our sessions are designed to match. Some people thrive with traditional weekly sessions, while others find profound relief in extended IFS-Informed EMDR sessions or intensive formats - longer, more spacious time for processing without feeling rushed. These options exist because trauma work often needs more than an hour can hold.

Beliefs & Lived Experience

I have frontline experience in overcoming some of life's most difficult circumstances. II believe that people have a natural wisdom within themselves, along with a capacity to not only manage problems but to bounce back from them even better than before.
