Life is meant to be joyful and fulfilling. If symptoms of PTSD, depression, or anxiety are causing you to feel less than your best, therapy can help! Whether through traditional talk therapy or EMDR treatment, we will work to pinpoint damaging patterns in your life, and get to the root of the problem to ensure long lasting results. Clients usually see an improvement in symptoms within the first month of sessions.
My areas of expertise are PTSD, trauma, anxiety, and women's and relationship issues. In addition to talk therapy, I offer EMDR services. While in session, you will be in the driver's seat of your therapeutic journey. Using a strength-based approach, my focus is to help you realize your greatest potential and truly thrive!
In addition to counseling, I have years of corporate experience, and balancing work and personal life as a mom and wife. I look forward to connecting with you, and for a free 15 minute phone consultation, contact me here via Psychology Today!
