Approach

My approach is always collaborative, client-centered and strengths-based. I currently only have openings for virtual therapy sessions, and I strive to create a supportive, warm and inclusive environment. I am committed to offering a safe place for clients from all backgrounds and identities.

My primary therapeutic approach is Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), a method developed by Dr. Francine Shapiro at EMDR Institute, where I received my training. While EMDR is widely recognized for its effectiveness in treating PTSD and trauma, extensive research has demonstrated its success in addressing a broad range of concerns, including anxiety, panic disorder, depression, OCD, and eating disorder.

In my experience, EMDR often provides faster and more lasting results than traditional talk therapy approaches. I like to weave other modalities into my work with EMDR, drawing from cognitive behavioral therapy, mindfulness, somatic therapy among others. Through talk therapy I help clients clarify their needs, define their boundaries and challenge the patterns that no longer serve them in order to reach their goals and live their best life. My expertise includes trauma, anxiety, life transitions, ruminations, PTSD, depression, self-esteem, relationship dynamics, stress management, and parenting challenges.
