About Me

You may be successful and high-functioning on the outside while privately struggling with anxiety, hypervigilance, relationship patterns, or the lasting effects of trauma. You may even understand why you feel or react the way you do but find that insight alone hasn’t changed how you feel.

I am an EMDR Certified Therapist specializing in trauma, PTSD, complex PTSD, and anxiety. I work with adults who want to move beyond simply coping and begin addressing the experiences and patterns underneath their symptoms.

My approach to EMDR is individualized, collaborative, and paced carefully. We take time to understand your history, identify patterns and potential EMDR targets, develop appropriate preparation and coping resources, and determine together when you are ready for trauma processing.

I particularly enjoy working with high-achieving adults and professionals, as well as veterans and first responders, who are accustomed to being strong, capable, and the person others depend on.

My therapeutic style is warm, genuine, active, and nonjudgmental. I believe trauma therapy can be meaningful and challenging while still feeling human and relational. My goal is to help you process what is keeping you stuck so the past can have less power over your present.
My own experiences with healing have taught me the importance of having a safe, supportive space to process pain—and that’s what I aim to provide for you. In therapy, we’ll work at your pace to quiet negative self-talk, strengthen relationships, and rebuild confidence.
Whether you’re coping with past trauma, navigating difficult emotions, or searching for a healthier path forward, I’ll walk alongside you with empathy and respect. My goal is to help you reclaim your sense of self and move forward with greater peace and clarity.

Education & Experience

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and EMDR Certified Therapist specializing in trauma, PTSD, complex PTSD, and anxiety. I earned my Master of Social Work from Florida Atlantic University and have experience providing trauma-focused psychotherapy to adults in both behavioral health and private practice settings.

My clinical work focuses on helping adults, including high-achieving professionals, veterans, and first responders, address the lasting effects of trauma, anxiety, and difficult life experiences. I have advanced training in EMDR therapy and integrate evidence-based approaches, including CBT and nervous system regulation, based on each client’s individual needs.

My approach is warm, collaborative, and active, with an emphasis on helping clients move beyond simply understanding their patterns to creating meaningful change. I provide EMDR and trauma-focused psychotherapy in person in Palm Beach Gardens, Florida, and through telehealth throughout Florida.
