About Me
I am a licensed clinical therapist and EMDR-trained therapist with experience in community mental health and private practice. I wors with a range of individual clients, from teenagers to the elderly, as well as couples and families. I specialize in trauma and PTSD, abuse, depression, anxiety, obsessive-compulsive behaviors and thoughts, low self-esteem, life adjustment issues and more. In addition to EMDR, I utilize cognitive behavioral therapy and elements of dialectical behavioral therapy in my approach. I help my clients find relief from their emotional and behavioral symptoms, but also work to determine the root cause of the problem(s). My experience has led me to believe that almost all mental health and behavioral problems stem from an experience(s) that overwhelms a person’s system. Finding and treating the root cause is an effective way to prevent symptoms from reappearing over time. I have a high degree of empathy and strives to foster trust so that clients feel safe to experience emotions during sessions.
Education & Experience
I received my Master of Social Work from Cleveland State University, and my Bachelor of Arts in Psychology from Youngstown State University. I am also a trained yoga instructor and certified health coach.
