For more than 20 years, I’ve had the privilege of walking alongside people as they heal, grow, and rediscover themselves. As a licensed therapist, I’m trained in EMDR, EMDR 2.0, somatic therapy, and specialized EMDR approaches for depression, anxiety, phobias, and OCD. While I value ongoing learning and evidence-based approaches, I believe the most important part of therapy is the relationship we build together.

I’m passionate about helping people let go of the old beliefs, painful experiences, and self-defeating patterns that have kept them feeling stuck. One of the things I hear most often is, “I don’t think what happened to me was trauma.” Many people believe that unless they’ve experienced war or a major catastrophe, their struggles aren’t valid. The truth is, trauma isn’t defined by the event itself—it’s about how our experiences have impacted us.

“Trauma doesn’t happen to us, it happens inside of us.” – Gabor Maté

I help my clients understand that every experience matters. Together, we explore the parts of yourself you’ve been criticizing, fighting, or trying to push away, and replace judgment with compassion. Healing isn’t about becoming someone different—it’s about reconnecting with who you’ve always been beneath the pain.
