About Me

Picture
With over 25 years of providing therapeutic services, I bring valuable experience, insight, and compassion to my professional practice.

​My focus is working with persons affected by trauma, to include relational, chronic, complex, and single-incident traumatic experiences. I believe that we are not defined by our  life experiences, but rather we are meant to naturally develop and grow in an adaptive manner that is true to our authentic selves.
I began working in private-practice in 2001 and was trained in EMDR in 2009. I obtained Certification in EMDR in 2011 and continued on to become an Approved Consultant. I have extensive training in treating complex trauma and dissociation, as well as specialized training in EMDR and Attachment/Early Trauma protocol.  I utilize ancillary tools, such as sand tray, mindfulness strategies, and grounding exercises. Additionally, I am committed to supporting mental health professionals expand their utilization of EMDR by providing individual and group consultation, as well as training opportunities.

In my free time I enjoy being outdoors, whether running, gardening, biking, or enjoying the river, ocean, or nature with my family.
