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

I work with people ages 18 + and 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. This heals.

My areas of interest include trauma, complex trauma, sexual assault/abuse, all intersectional feminist issues, supporting the LGBTQ+ community, the slightly eccentric and off-beat and helping people find confidence and self-worth. I absolutely love working with people who are searching for their purpose and full acceptance of who they are. I’m committed to truth telling, social justice and anti-oppression of all victims / survivors.

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 - I worked as a birth doula for many years and also have training in perinatal mental health through Postpartum Support International (PSI). In my practice I continue to support others through many mental health issues and life transitions including trauma, self-esteem, confidence building, interpersonal relationships, marriage, job stress, depression, anxiety.

My goal is to be a cozy, welcoming place you looking forward to coming to - where you feel accepted for who you are, gain awareness, confidence, feel heard and find healing. Taking time for yourself isn’t selfish.

My personality is down-to-earth, yet professional. I’m not interested in being a cookie cutter, blank slate type therapist. I take my job, your story and boundaries very seriously and I look forward to hearing from you. It's a honor to hold space for others. Please reach out anytime.

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