EMDR Certified Therapist

About Me

I provide EMDR for adults and teens over 16. I am a 50+ year old mom and step-mom, a gardener, and a life-long student of body-mind wellbeing. I grew up as a musician, and transitioned into wellness as a young adult, receiving training in sports medicine, clinical massage therapy and therapeutic breathwork. At that time, I worked in chiropractic, physical therapy and private practice settings, while pursuing my own growth and wellbeing through yoga, dance improv, 12-step groups, women's groups, meditation and volunteering. Working with chronic and acute pain meant that I supported many clients who had been through trauma of various forms. This experience led me to return to school at the University of Michigan, and to pursue EMDR certification after I graduated from the School of Social Work with specialization in Interpersonal Practice / Mental Health.

Education & Experience

I have a Master's in Social Work in Interpersonal Practice / Mental Health. I have pursued specialized knowledge in trauma informed care, perinatal care, neurodiversity, LGBTQ+ resources, shame resilience and self-compassion. I have had the opportunity to provide psychotherapy for adults and teens experiencing depression, anxiety, OCD and PTSD in clinical settings as well as wellness and inclusion services for graduate students at U-M. I am now in private practice.
