About Me

I have extensive experience working with individuals, couples, teens and the elderly. I work collaboratively with clients who are coping with a broad range of issues: grief/loss, crisis management, chronic illness, anxiety, depression, parenting, relationship challenges, and caring for an aging parent or child with disabilities, to name a few. I am trained in trauma-informed EMDR therapy which has been extensively researched and proven to be helpful in the treatment of PTSD, anxiety, OCD, depression, and other distressing mental health concerns. I utilize a supportive, person-centered approach to help clients strengthen their coping skills and live optimally. I believe that trust and safety are the cornerstones of a successful therapeutic relationship.
