EMDRIA Certified Therapist™

About Me

I utilize advanced EMDR and mind/body techniques aimed at resolving complex and attachment trauma and stressors, as well as recent traumatic events. EMDR training approaches include Preci/ASSYST, Flash, EMDR 2.0, OCD protocol, EMD, Super Resourcing, and Attachment Focused EMDR. While true healing takes place over a period of time, I value choosing fast, stabilizing, and empowering approaches to help clients feel better as soon as possible.
