About Me

I received my basic certification in EMDR during the pandemic, and witnessed how effective and efficient it was in treating my patients' ongoing issues. Before learning EMDR, I have been practicing for the past 10+ years using evidence-based practices and trauma-informed care seeing adolescents and adults. I have completed my level 1 training and have integrated EMDR with most of my patients, who have enjoyed this modality immensely.
