About me
EMDR therapist and certified trauma therapist dedicated to helping adults and adolescents with anxiety, depression, trauma, and personality disorders.
After experiencing the recovery from my trauma and volunteering at a local domestic violence shelter, I came into the counseling profession. This evidence that counseling really works led me to return to school and complete a master’s degree in clinical mental health counseling. I believe in focusing on what is working and capitalizing on the strengths and resiliency inherent in all. I really want to connect with my clients and find what works best for you based on what you feel is most important. Sometimes that path requires figuring out the most important through discovery and walking that path together. I am an EMDR therapist, Certified Dialectical Behavior Therapist, Certified Resilience Professional, and Certified Clinical Trauma Specialist-I. Sometimes it is really helpful to have someone walk the road with you while we figure things out together. If you are interested in diving in, please contact me.
