About me
I am an experienced clinician with expertise in depression, anxiety, trauma as well as secondary trauma & compassion fatigue, grief/loss, and adjusting to life changes of all kinds.
I love people! At my core, I am relational and deeply value the relationship between client and therapist. I believe it is a privilege to walk alongside those are hurting, questioning, desperate, and in need of hope and connection. I am EMDR certified, which is an evidence-based modality for working through childhood and adult trauma and distressing events. I use a person-centered approach, which means I tailor therapy specifically to your needs. I focus on strengths and use CBT (cognitive behavioral therapy) and ACT (acceptance and commitment therapy) along with sprinkling in some mindfulness and meditation for peace and relaxation.
I have worked in the medical field for the majority of my career and have extensive experience with chronic illness, grief and loss, as well as the emotional toll on providers and first responders caring for the sick, hurting, and dying. Depression, anxiety, relationship and communication issues, and adjusting to life changes are also a significant reason to seek therapy and I welcome those who need help adding some tools to their emotional toolkit!
