I am a Licensed Independent Clinical Social Worker and Certified EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) therapist via EMDRIA and The Institute for Creative Mindfulness. EMDR is an effective and evidence based approach to treating - not only trauma - but many other issues and negative core beliefs that keep us stuck.

I work with people ages 18 + helping them process from many forms of trauma and negative self/core beliefs. My main modality used is EMDR. With that said, I'm a BIG believer that the most powerful healing tool we have as therapists is the safety and connection of the therapeutic relationship with our clients, allowing for corrective experiences in the therapy office.

My areas of interest are family trauma, sexual assault/abuse, adults, young adults / college-age, the LGBTQ+ community, the eccentric and offbeat and helping people find confidence and a strong sense of self as they transition to adulthood.

I have no interest in being a cookie cutter, blank-slate type therapist. If that’s what you’re looking for, I might not be for you. A comfortable connection and safe therapeutic relationship are top priorities.

I absolutely love working with people who are searching for their purpose and full acceptance of who they are. Be yourself and be proud. I have experience providing therapy in a college counseling center and this population is near and dear to my heart.

I’m a staunch ally, queer & trans affirming and enjoy working with people as they discover who they are and how to live authentically.

I’ve been supporting people for the last 15+ years in various capacities and now offer individual therapy - including EMDR therapy - for support through many mental health issues and life transitions including trauma, self-esteem, confidence building, interpersonal relationships, marriage, job stress, depression, anxiety. I worked as a birth doula for many years and also have training in perinatal mental health through Postpartum Support International (PSI).

My goal is to be a welcoming place where you feel accepted for who you are, gain awareness, confidence, feel heard and find healing. Taking time for yourself to really be listened to and supported isn’t selfish, it’s essential.

My personality is super down-to-earth, easy going - I tend to curse a lot - yet professional. I take my job, your story and boundaries very seriously and I look forward to hearing from you.

When I'm not working I'm practicing Ashtanga Yoga, knitting, hanging with my 4 lb. rescued chihuahua and 3 black cats and watching spooky things.
