About Me

Hello from the great southwest! I’m a trauma-focused psychologist, wife, mom, and pet lover, with a goldendoodle named Goose usually nearby. Family is my foundation and I love anything brain-related. My husband and I own and operate a growing group practice that focuses on training therapists and providing the deep therapy to our community using EMDR, DBR, and Neurofeedback. I’m board certified in neurofeedback, an IQCB QEEG Diplomate Candidate, and have over a decade of experience with EMDR therapy as an EMDRIA-Approved Consultant and now provide Basic Training. I’m also fully trained in Deep Brain Reorienting (Levels 1–3 by Frank Corrigan) and weave in principles of the Alexander Technique to support nervous system healing. My practice is a blend of science, somatics, and heart!
