About My Clients

You may have spent years learning about yourself and your relationships, yet still find yourself feeling stuck in old patterns. Perhaps you’ve always been the one to care for others, but now struggle to prioritize your own needs. Reaching out for help is a courageous first step, showing that you’re ready for change. Together, we can work to build your confidence, enhance your ability to navigate life’s challenges, and strengthen your relationships, leading to greater well-being and satisfaction.

My Background and Approach

I specialize in working with individuals experiencing significant life transitions, grief, or relationship struggles. My approach is compassionate and collaborative, helping you gain deeper insights that lead to lasting change. I utilize Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), a trauma-focused therapy, to alleviate distressing responses to life’s triggers. Additionally, I incorporate the mind-body connection with Somatic Experiencing, helping you regulate your nervous system, reduce anxiety, and cultivate more positive beliefs about yourself and your ability to trust others. For those struggling with chronic pain, I offer Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT), a therapeutic approach that helps transform the relationship with pain. This results in reduced anxiety and fear, and for many, a significant reduction or even elimination of pain.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I firmly believe that therapy can be a transformative experience. Change might not happen overnight or always be linear, but you can start to see shifts from the very first session knowing you have this time just for you. With your inner resilience and my professional skills, we can work together to help you create the life you’ve always desired. I’m currently accepting new clients and offer a free 15 minute phone consultation to see if we’re a good fit for each other.

I offer online counseling in the following states:
