About
Life is hard, and the weight of trauma, anxiety, depression, or burnout can leave you feeling lost, stuck, or like you're just barely holding it together. These struggles have a way of rippling into every corner of life - your relationships, your self-worth, your sleep, even your relationship with food. If you're here, something in you knows it's time to stop just surviving. I'd be honored to help you figure out what's getting in the way and get back to living a life that actually feels like yours. I don't just help you manage symptoms - my goal is to get to the root of what's keeping you stuck. I use a tailored blend of EMDR to process what holds you back, ACT to reconnect you with what matters most, DBT to build practical emotional skills, and Compassion Focused Therapy to help you become your own best ally. You are not broken, you are just off-path. Reaching out is often the hardest part, and the fact that you're here matters. When you're ready to take the next step, visit our website to request an appointment. I look forward to meeting you. Credentials & Experience: I'm a licensed mental health counselor and national certified counselor. I'm certified in EMDR by EMDRIA.
