About My Clients

I work with clients who struggle with anxiety, depression and trauma. I also work with those who struggle with perfectionism, overthinking and high pressure to perform. I specialize in trauma and focus on treating all symptomology of these experiences. I work with individuals ages 18 years and older. For those with chronic pain/illness, I use a blend of modalities that seek to empower and restore functioning to one's available level.

My Background and Approach

I utilize an attachment focused and trauma-informed lens to carefully conceptualize treatment for all my patients. I am trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and have advanced training to treat Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD). I combine Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) with Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) to help foster a strong foundation of skills and perspective reframing to build emotional tolerance. I have training in CBT for chronic pain/illness, and apply this in combination with EMDR to treat clients that struggle with the impact of a chronic diagnosis.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe that therapy should be accessible to everyone from all walks of life. I understand that there are stigmas to seeking counseling within certain gender and cultural communities. I strive to normalize therapy by creating a comfortable, down-to-earth environment that feels inviting and grounded.
