About Me

I offer you over a decade of clinical practice along with a strong understanding of - grief, loss, trauma - and periods of change we all face in our lives. In a compassionate, warm environment I strive to give you an opportunity to unplug from the everyday stressors so you can begin to focus on your story, your needs, and your wellbeing.
Unresolved trauma & chronic stress will eventually show up in the body. For instance: anxiety, depression, poor motivation, irritability, sleep problems, weight gain, etc.
Together, we will create a treatment perspective uniquely crafted for you. Using a combination of classic time-tested techniques, such as EDMR along with newer approaches designed to engage your unique strengths, skills, & innate wisdom - ultimately, helping you get back on track...
