Life can bring about many dif­fer­ent chal­lenges, and tak­ing the first step to seek ther­a­py can be scary. There are times where we might feel like all hope has been lost. My pas­sion is to pro­vide a safe space for clients to feel heard and to pro­vide sup­port in the chal­leng­ing times that they may be expe­ri­enc­ing. I like to pri­or­i­tize the ther­a­peu­tic rela­tion­ship in order to build trust with my clients. My hope is to sup­port you through an indi­vid­u­al­ized approach as every­one expe­ri­ences and process­es through life events dif­fer­ent­ly. I am EMDR trained and uti­lized a trau­ma-informed approach with clients. I am also IFS-informed and look to edu­cate clients on how to under­stand and engage their dif­fer­ent parts of self.

I am EMDR trained and work­ing towards cer­ti­fi­ca­tion through EMDRIA.
