About My Clients

Out of nowhere, crippling emotion hits you. You're not sure where it came from, or how to make it go away. You just know that the feeling is back and you'd do almost anything to stop it. Everyone does something different to cope, and everyone's suffering comes from a different place. My role is to help you identify where it came from and treat the source. I also focus on teaching my clients concrete and healthy skills to cope in the moment.

My Background and Approach

I like to get an in depth understanding of where your pain comes from so I can treat it appropriately. I like to treat the things from your past that drive your painful emotional experiences. I also will teach you techniques to help you in the meantime while we are addressing the root of your suffering. Unfortunately, *life* happens and there are some things we just can't control. I want you to feel like you can handle whatever comes your way - that you can do your best and then let go of the outcome - giving you the confidence to face each new day. I am certified in Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) and Biofeedback. I tend to use EMDR to address prior experiences/trauma that are the sources of anxiety and Heart Rate Variability Biofeedback to address the physiological underpinnings of anxiety.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe that we are all doing the very best we can, with what we know. My role is to help you "know" more, so you can do even better in your life! I do not believe in telling you what choices to make. I'll listen and help you come to decisions on your own, that are in line with your values. Personally, I've had the experience of not fitting into my religious culture. While I am still a believing, active member of my faith, I know what it is like to not "fit the mold." I have found that being different than others has actually been a strength! I enjoy helping other people along their own path to self acceptance so that they can feel grounded and empowered.
