Get To Know Me
What would be important for someone to know about working with you?
I am Certified EMDR therapist and working with me ensures a safe and compassionate space where your unique journey is met with empathy and understanding. I believe in fostering empowerment, offering guidance when needed, and maintaining a direct yet considerate approach. Our collaboration is centered on your well-being, encouraging you to explore challenges, express your needs, and navigate transformation with confidence and resilience.
What does a first session with you look like?
The first session with me is a collaborative and supportive experience focused on building a foundation of trust. We'll discuss your goals, concerns, and what led you to seek therapy. It's an opportunity for you to share your story at your own pace, and I'll listen with empathy and without judgment. We'll explore the therapeutic process together, addressing any questions or uncertainties you may have. By the end of the session, we aim to establish a sense of connection and a roadmap for our work ahead, ensuring that you feel heard, understood, and supported on your journey towards healing and personal growth.
How does collaboration with other providers play into your work?
Collaboration with other providers is integral to my approach, emphasizing a holistic and comprehensive care for clients. By maintaining open communication with your healthcare team, including medical professionals or other specialists, I ensure that our therapeutic work aligns seamlessly with your overall well-being.

Work History
Having worked in a residential facility for adolescents with eating disorders, I cultivated expertise in fostering a nurturing environment for young individuals navigating intricate relationships with food and body image. This experience heightened my commitment to guiding them toward a positive self-image. Additionally, in a group practice, I specialized in supporting individuals grappling with complex trauma, further shaping my understanding of its nuances.
Now, in my private practice, I've seamlessly transitioned these insights, focusing on trauma, eating disorders, and parenting issues. Utilizing EMDR, my therapeutic approach aims to empower individuals to process traumatic experiences and find healing. This journey extends beyond overcoming challenges; it's about rediscovering strength and fostering resilience in the face of adversity. My work in private practice reflects a dedication to personalized and compassionate care, creating a space for clients to embark on transformative paths toward healing and growth.
