About My Clients
I love seeing clients with a great sense of humor, but I also want you to feel comfortable enough to cry and express yourself freely. I have helped many adult women reprocess trauma that has made it difficult for them to maintain successful, healthy relationships. Childhood sexual trauma and domestic violence are topics that I have extensive knowledge about. I feel as though I create a safe environment to explore these experiences and how they can best be worked through and overcome.
My Background and Approach
I was trained in EMDR through EMDRIA, and I find this treatment approach to be beneficial to many of my clients with past traumatic experiences. I am a social worker, which I believe helps me to understand your environment in a multi-faceted way.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I am a tenacious human being who is currently on his own vulnerability journey (I, too, see a therapist, and am a work in progress). I truly believe that all people can heal and grow if given the right environment and a safe space. I have had Chronic Lyme Disease for over half of my life, and the chronic pain I experience every day helps me to deeply understand both mental health and physical health issues that others who choose to see me may go through. I am passionate about discovering their voice as they learn to set boundaries and assisting my clients in finding coping skills. My own struggles as a teenager led me to a desire to guide others to developing a healthy connection with their body- this also includes physical exercise, as I am now an ultra runner. I want my clients to be able to experience the same kind of joy that I feel as I take care of my body in a way that I didn't used to, whatever that may look like for them.
