About My Clients
Traditional weekly therapy is powerful, but some wounds require a more immersive approach to truly heal. I specialize in helping men, women, and students move past the past using focused, evidence-based methods that prioritize long-term relief over short-term coping. I am the owner of Central Coast Psychotherapy and we have 2 additional therapist who also utilize EMDR and other talk therapy methods.
My Background and Approach
I believe that therapy isn't the hour we spend together, it's what you do with it. Change can be hard, but I'm here to support you every step of the way because change is possible! I also value authentic connection, and this is central to my work as a therapist and as a human being. If you feel like it's been hard for people to understand you, your history, and your life- consider this a sign. If you are an individual or couple looking for relief and positive steps forward, call or email for a free consult today.
