As a dedicated and compassionate therapist, I am focused on helping individuals navigate life’s challenges while supporting healing and personal growth. I believe everyone has the capacity for resilience and transformation, and I aim to create a supportive space where clients can feel empowered to explore their emotions and experiences.

​

Through the use of  Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), an evidence-based approach to addressing trauma, anxiety, and distressing life events,  I help clients process unresolved memories, reduce emotional triggers, and reclaim a sense of balance and empowerment in their lives.

​

Understanding that trauma work requires both courage and readiness, I prioritize pacing the therapeutic process to ensure clients feel supported and prepared at every stage. I collaborate closely with clients to assess their readiness for trauma therapy, focusing on building emotional stability and coping skills before diving into deeper work. This careful and individualized approach helps foster safety, trust, and long-lasting growth.

​

Whether you are seeking to heal from past experiences, manage current stressors, or cultivate a deeper sense of self-awareness, I am here to walk alongside you on your journey.
