EMDRIA Certified Therapist™

Online Therapy

About Me

I have over fourteen years of clinical experience and I specialize in therapy for trauma, stress, anxiety, relationship problems and attachment, and dissociation. I have an office in Encinitas where I provide in-person therapy to adolescents, adults, and folks in relationships. I provide virtual therapy throughout California. One of the reasons I became a therapist is because of my own recovery, which has allowed me to find joy and a sense of meaning and purpose in life. When I’m not parenting my two children or working, I enjoy reading, creative writing, and being outside. I make an effort to do something that brings me joy every day- even if it’s just by searching the night sky for the moon or talking to a friend on the phone.

Education & Experience

I have over fourteen years of clinical experience, an M.A. in Counseling, a Ph.D. in Depth Psychology, and certification in EMDR by EMDRIA.

Professional & Volunteer Affiliations
