About Me
Are you tired of being held back by patterns that aren't serving you? Whether you've felt overwhelmed and paralyzed about climate change, stuck in cycles of anxiety or self-criticism, by unhealthy use of alcohol or other substances or the legacy of past traumatic or distressing experiences, our work can help you to experience life with more ease, purpose, and clarity—so that you can spend your time and energy on what's truly most important to you in life.
Education & Experience
I have experience using EMDR with a range of traumatic experiences, including difficult family relationships in childhood, self criticism, traumatic loss, bullying, military experiences, and complex trauma, as well as recent events such as car accidents. I incorporate parts work and specialized resourcing protocols that I have found increase the ability of many clients to access the benefits of EMDR. I offer in-person therapy in Long Beach, CA, and when working with clients virtually, I offer the option to rent the same remote tappers I use in-office to replicate as much of the in-office experience as possible (learn more about them at bilateralstiumlation.io).
