Navigating this thing called Life is truly a trip! My mission is to support you to have more effective communication and coping skills, develop an uncompromising and joyful sense of self, develop stronger life skills, increased healthy coping with life transitions and heal traumas so that you can be the person you need to be.
I am trained in EMDR in 50 minute sessions, 90 minute and intensive sessions (3+ hours). I specialize in: • trauma (childhood and adult experiences), • adolescent struggles • co-parenting conflict • couple's communication • workplace stress • complicated family dynamics • mood challenges • maternal, paternal and perinatal mental health.
Finding time to pause, reflect, and figure out this thing called Life can be challenging. When you're in the midst of heartbreak, anger, sadness, frustration it can feel like you are alone like no one sees you. This is a judgement free zone. It's about empowering you. We talk. We make plans. We explore what it is that's going to help you grow.

Trauma is an event or events that overwhelm your typical way of coping. You define what the trauma is not me. I often use Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing therapy to support you to work through disruptive and negative beliefs about self. In our first session we get to know each other and identify what you want to wok through as well as the strategies use to support self.
