About Me
I provide EMDR therapy and play therapy in Fort Worth, helping children, adolescents, and adults heal from trauma, anxiety, attachment challenges, and emotional distress. Therapy is grounded in a safe, trusting relationship and focused on creating real, lasting change.
I specialize in complex trauma, dissociation, and attachment-related issues, helping clients move beyond symptom management by addressing the root of the problem. EMDR therapy helps reprocess experiences that impact emotional regulation, behavior, and self-worth, while play therapy gives children a developmentally appropriate way to express and resolve difficult experiences. Treatment is individualized based on each client’s needs.
For families seeking play therapy in Fort Worth, caregiver involvement is an essential part of the process. We work together to support your child’s progress and emotional wellbeing. If we’re not the right fit, I’ll help connect you with a therapist who is.
