About My Clients

Your experience(s) left you feeling unsafe about the world and your ability to handle your own emotions, thoughts and behaviors. It is common to have intrusive thoughts, anxiety, insomnia, lack of concentration and satisfaction in life. Sometimes emotions (or lack of feeling anything) can be so intense that you use not so healthy ways to cope. Low self confidence and not really knowing "Who I am", including dissociation, impact your work, school and social relationships.

My Background and Approach

I provide a safe, caring, warm, accepting space for any issue that you want to work on. I am an LCSW with over 6 years of experiences working with adults including BIPOC, LGBTQIA and others who believe they do not "fit" in traditional norms. I have attended trainings that teach leading edge techniques that we will use to provide relief for depression, anxiety, trauma, PTSD, Complex-PTSD. You will learn about what is going on in your brain, develop techniques to give you relief while working through your experiences together. I am trained in CBT, DBT and EMDR. I have specialized advanced training in Relational EMDR and I integrate mindfulness, somatic and parts work. We will meet and discuss your experience, your concerns and formulate a plan together.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

I believe in a limitless human capacity to do hard things, recover from injury and have post traumatic growth. I am a trauma focused therapist who believes your trauma experience has had devastating impacts on you, your relationships, job and academic functioning. I see every individual as important and worthy of understanding. As a social worker, I am a social justice warrior and lend my support to social justice movements, including "Me Too", Black Lives Matter, Civil & Voting rights. I support LGBTQ rights as an Ally. I highly value inclusion and diversity and work diligently to be "culturally competent". I have worked in my community to raise awareness of poverty and worked towards helping pass local ordinances aimed at predatory lenders. I also support "spiritual refugees" who were harmed by religious experiences.
