About My Clients

As your therapist, I am committed to supporting you through the full spectrum of your experiences. I'm here for all the paths and versions of yourself, the search for meaning, the often messy exploration, and, overall, the larger current of your life. I'm here with you as you navigate the challenges that arise in human existence, which can be quite daunting when faced alone. All of this applies no matter your background, ethnicity, race, gender, or age.

My Background and Approach

I specialize in trauma therapy modalities, which at their core encompass not only the well-known PTSD but all forms of human suffering. Often, a pervasive pattern of thought or behavior, or difficult past events, can lead to a feeling of "stuckness" in the present. Reasoning or talking ourselves out of this stuck place can only help for so long. Lasting changes occur by navigating through our challenges in an integrated way, connecting with the totality of self: our mind, body and emotions.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe in the innate wisdom within each individual and aim to help you access what’s already yours. What I “actually do” can best be compared to a dance; one in which we harmonize with your distinct personality, narrative, and way of being in the world. As your therapist, I am committed to supporting you through the full spectrum of your experiences.

I'm here with you as you navigate the challenges that arise in human existence, which can be quite daunting when faced alone. Drawing upon my training in Internal Family Systems (IFS), Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), I focus on helping you uncover your inherent life force and sense of self.
