Specialized Training:
I'm trained in CBT, TF-CBT and EMDR. I use an eclectic mix of therapeutic techniques to create a treatment plan that suits your needs. I am trained in clinical supervision and offer individual and dyadic virtual supervision to RPs and RSWs. I am a Yorkville approved supervisor. I like to use a mix of treatment approaches and therapy techniques depending on your needs and what you want to work on in therapy. The main techniques I use are trauma-focused and attachment based. I also use EMDR to treat traumatic memories and PTSD-like symptoms.

Personal Statement:
From relationships to anxiety, life’s challenges can leave you feeling unsure of your next step. It may seem like you’re repeating the same patterns and ending up in the same place. The strategies you’ve used in the past to cope aren’t working and you feel frustrated. Talk therapy can help you learn new ways to understand your feelings. EMDR can help you re-process traumatic memories so they aren’t disturbing anymore. With over 16 years of experience, I can help you regain your confidence, re-establish connections with yourself and others, and rebuild your sense of safety. I offer a safe space for you to unpack the relationship patterns skills that haven’t been working, and explore how trauma may be impacting your life. Together we’ll rebuild the foundation of your relationships with yourself and others. Using an eclectic mix of therapeutic techniques, including EMDR, I can help you begin to feel like yourself again. From this stronger foundation you can move forward with greater clarity and not have your past trauma(s) continue to affect you in the present. By reconnecting with yourself, you can learn to regulate your emotions and set healthy boundaries. Contact me for a free consult, and let’s start rebuilding your confidence and connections with yourself and others.
