Does the past still haunt you? Are you stuck thinking about a difficult experience, a relationship, a memory? Past Traumatic experiences and painful relationships can steal the joy out of life. So can negative self-talk. I can help you live more in the present and look positively towards the future. I bring over 15 years of clinical experience into my virtual and in person practices. I integrate both EMDR and psychodynamic therapy, two therapy approaches that I am certified in. I work with STAIR-NST as well, an approach that integrates both cognitive behavioral therapy and attachment theory. Don’t wait any longer to start feeling better. Let’s begin this journey together.

Treatment Approach

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) One of the most widely used approaches, CBT helps people identify unhelpful thoughts and replace them with healthier patterns. It is effective for anxiety, depression, and many other concerns.
  • Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) A structured therapy that uses guided eye movements to help process traumatic memories. It is widely recognized for treating PTSD and trauma-related conditions.
  • Psychodynamic Therapy Explores unconscious thoughts and patterns that influence current behavior. It builds insight into how the past impacts the present.
Approach Description: I don't fit my clients into my approach. I find what works for each client. I offer validation, care, concern and a safe place to share what is sometimes the hardest to talk about. I help my clients better understand themselves, thereby becoming more in charge of their lives. EMDR therapy helps with strengthening our inner resources, processing through trauma, and accessing more adaptive belief systems. Psychodynamic therapy allows for deeper work, an exploration into how we became the way we are. STAIR/NST approaches our work through a cognitive behavioral and attachment theory lens. lending itself to the best of two worlds.
