About Me
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker and Licensed Clinical Addictions Specialist with 15 years experience as a therapist. I use a combination of modalities, but primarily DBT and EMDR. DBT teaches the skills you need to manage and embrace your emotions. EMDR is a tool to move through the hurts of the past and step into your life in the present. Together, these tools will assist you to develop a life worth living and leave the past behind.
