About Me
I am trained in play therapy and work with children, teens, and adults. I draw upon non-verbal therapeutic approaches (sandtray, expressive arts therapy, and play therapy approaches) in EMDR therapy. My therapy space is both neurodiverse-affirming and LGBTQ+ welcoming. Additionally, I provide supervision and EMDR consultation.
