Journey to a Trauma Informed Life

EMDR Trainer

About Me

I am an EMDR therapist and have been working with individuals across the life span for more than 20 years. I provide trauma-informed support to individuals who encounter depression, anxiety, chronic pain or illness, survivors of abuse, PTSD, end of life issues, relationship struggles, spiritual conflicts, substance use issues, ally to LGBTQ. I dedicate my work to support individuals to (re)discover their purpose and their true meaning of life. I support resolving spiritual conflicts in a judgment-free environment. Watching someone find their inspiration, belonging and spark in life is a true gift.
