About Me

I am uniquely qualified to offer an evidence-based, holistic approach to mental health and trauma therapy by creating a fusion with Psychotherapy, Alternative Medicine, Nutrition and the Medical Model. All of our brains and bodies manifest stress, trauma, physical, and emotional pain differently. Humans create ways to cope and the outcomes vary. I base my theoretical philosophy in the belief that we all have the power to heal. Our brains have a tremendous capacity for protecting us from harm. The basis for the Adaptive Information Processing (AIP) model is that maladaptively stored memories of trauma create obstacles to rational processing. EMDR is utilized to eliminate barriers and empower complete processing of the memory, leading to a reduction in trauma symptoms.

Professional & Volunteer Affiliations

I am deeply committed to caring for caregivers. Being a nurse, I easily connect with doctors, nurses, medical techs, and healthcare workers. I am affiliated with local hospitals and first responders to provide timely, acute care for providers and staff.
