About Me
I have been practicing for 20 years . I particularly love to work with young adult and adult women that have had family of origin attachment/trauma as well as symptoms of Anxiety, Depression.
EMDR is my primary therapeutic tool. In conjunction with EMDR, I utilize Polyvagal principles, Ego State therapy and Acceptance and Commitment therapy.
I am happy to do a free brief consult so you can decide if we are a good fit for each other.
