About My Clients
I specialize in working with adults who have experienced abuse, feel stuck in negative beliefs about themselves, or live with high levels of shame. These experiences can show up in many ways: anxiety, depression, difficulties having healthy relationships, dissociation, and much more.
My Background and Approach
The primary types of therapy I provide are Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Internal Family Systems (IFS), although I often also incorporate elements of person-centered therapy, strengths-based therapy, mindfulness, self-compassion, attachment theory, and trauma-informed therapy. Through a structured series of steps, EMDR gives people a means to be able to fully process memories that hold them back and reinforces positive beliefs about themselves. IFS provides people a way to create healthy relationships with all parts of themselves, whether that is a part holding onto shame, a part that dislikes being vulnerable, a part that seeks emotional numbing, and much more. IFS also provides a method to unburden the parts of a person that feel stuck holding onto pain from past trauma. At this time, I'm still offering both masked in-person sessions and telehealth appointments to best accommodate safety and preferences.
