About Me

I am an EMDRIA-Certified EMDR Therapist and am a Certified Brainspotting Therapist. I also utilize Cognitive Processing Therapy, Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction, and have formal Zen Buddhism and meditation training. In addition, I have been involved in the local substance abuse community since 1998 and have a deep knowledge of the complications addiction can present. Whatever you feel is affecting your daily life and keeping you from experiencing true emotional and mental freedom, Covered Bridge Counseling provides you with a safe, nonjudgemental, compassionate, and empathetic place to be heard, validated, and to begin to live the life you have always been meant to live.
