Individual Therapy & EMDR Therapy

My approach to therapy starts with the belief that change is in our control.

By working from that mentality, we can learn to accept and grow from what we cannot control in order to live our life in an more optimal way. In my therapy space, I value authenticity, safety, freedom to choose, connection to others as well as ourselves, and being challenged.

My clients want a safe and comfortable space that can help them facilitate growth (that can sometimes be uncomfortable), and I love when I can provide that. I enjoy working with adults and adolescents who are curious about themselves, desire change and are interested in exploring issues or past trauma that they feel may be holding them back. I have completed EMDR Basic & Advanced Training and use this along with other evidence based practices to help my clients reach their goals.

What can we work on?

Coping Skills

Learning new coping skills can be very beneficial for things such as anxiety, depression, life transitions, stress, family conflict, suicidal ideation, etc. I utilize therapeutic modalities such as CBT, DBT, and ACT to help you learn tools to help in those moments when symptoms feel intense and accept things that are out of our control.

Communication & Relationships

Having conflict with your partner, peers, family, or others in general? Let’s talk about ways to improve communication, set boundaries, and talk about what is in our control and what is not, and what to do when feeling overwhelmed.

Trauma

Is there unresolved trauma from the past bothering you? Are you noticing some reactions or patterns that come from past experiences you’re wanting to talk about and change? I use an evidence based approach called EMDR to help clients process past experiences that they feel may be holding them back.
