About me
I specialize in trauma-informed care and am EMDR trained. I have a client-centered approach and am an LGBTQ ally. I utilize CBT, DBT, ACT, and solution-focused interventions to help my clients achieve lasting change. I lean into clients who are in recovery from substance use, including all the other 'life' challenges that come with it.
I’m a real human being and I’ve had a rich and varied life and professional experience. I bring a unique perspective that allows me to meet you where you are. No judgment, only safety and compassion.
