About

Would you like a step by step plan to break free from depression, anxiety, or post traumatic stress? I've developed a 3 phase model that integrates neuroscience, trauma research, and evidence based interventions to help adults of all ages to: 1. Stabilize, 2. Resolve the root causes of symptoms, and 3. Expand skills and agency over their lives. I've laid out this plan for free on my website for anyone to use. Within this framework I integrate careful listening, skill building, and memory re-processing to help clients achieve their goals. I am also equipped to weave faith and spirituality into the work if clients wish. I draw on cutting edge interventions including EMDR, CBT, IFS, and EFT as well as attuned, empathic conversation to help people regulate their emotional state, learn new skills, develop effective strategies, and resolve blocking beliefs. I incorporate visualization, memory reconsolidation, daily practices, assessments, feedback, and ongoing collaboration. Growing up in Kenya among the Maasai and living in Appalachia and Costa Rica I relate easily to people of many backgrounds. I love the open sky, soccer, running, Tolkien, cookouts, and friends. I'd love to support you on your journey. Glad to chat and answer any questions at no cost. Book a free 15 minute consultation by clicking on my website link. Specialties: I prefer an organized, strengths based, focused approach that accomplishes a lot in a fairly brief time. I use a 3 phase model with carefully selected skills that build on one another for clients to use between sessions so that during sessions clients can focus on things that are more difficult to accomplish without skilled help such as processing unresolved memories. Credentials & Experience: Since 2014 I've worked to integrate the best elements of the best modalities I can find. I listen carefully, then help clients organize goals, and build a plan. Then we weave these elements into the plan to help you master skills, resolve blocks, and build supports to achieve your best life.

"I start by teaching clients skills to access and maintain a relaxed body and mind from CBT, Mindfulness, EMDR, etc. I also encourage clients from the start to develop a strong base of friends and mentors to support them on the journey. As their capacity increases we move into processing work via interventions like EMDR, IFS, and ERP to permanently update old patterns and limiting beliefs."
