About Me

I specialize in treating medical trauma, adult survivors of childhood trauma, and overachieving highly anxious adults. I received EMDR Training in 2017 and have sought out additional advanced trainings and consultation on topics including the Flash Technique, integrating EMDR with Internal Family Systems Therapy, working with dissociation, and eating disorder recovery. I completed by Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy training in 2023 as a part of my work to improve the outcomes for my clients by offering the most up-to-date and effective treatments available. I have worked in a school setting, community mental health clinic, and residential and partial hospitalization level of care in eating disorder treatment.
