About My Clients

You might have learned a lot about yourself and relationships over the years, but you still feel stuck in the same patterns. You might be someone who always has taken care of others but find it more challenging to prioritize your own needs. Reaching out is a big, first step showing that you are ready to make a change. Together we can help improve your confidence, feel more capable of handling hard circumstances, and enhance your relationships for more life satisfaction and well-being.

My Background and Approach

I often work with individuals who are going through big life transitions, are experiencing loss or grief, or want to work on their relationships. I use a compassionate and warm approach to work collaboratively with you through deepened insight for lasting change. I use Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) as a trauma-focused therapy to help relieve uncomfortable and distressful responses to life triggers. The mind-body connection helps to strengthen grounding and regulate the nervous system to include reduced anxiety, deepened positive beliefs about yourself, and a stronger sense of trust in self and others. I work with individuals experiencing chronic pain using Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT) to help change the relationship with pain. The outcome of PRT is a decrease of anxiety and fear for reduced or eliminated pain.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe that therapy can be revolutionary. Big life changes don't always happen overnight and it isn't always a linear path, yet you can see changes from the start. I believe with your inner resources and resiliency and my skills and experience, we can help you to begin living the life you have always wanted. I am accepting new clients and offer a free 20 minute phone consultation.

I offer online counseling in the following states:
