You deserve a place where you can safely recover from your past.
I specialize in helping teenagers and adults improve their quality of life by healing big and small traumas through Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). As undesirable symptoms (e.g., depression; anxiety; and numbing behaviors, such as isolation, avoidance, and addiction) are often the result of unprocessed trauma, healing the pain can change your life for the better.
We will work together to address the issues that you've been putting aside until the time is right. I can help you develop awareness of thoughts and feelings, process completely through trauma, improve your self-esteem, utilize symptom management techniques, safety plan, recognize when you are safe, and build strong relationship and communication skills.
I believe that if everyone’s emotional scars were healed, we would live in a greatly improved world. Thus, I strive to make evidence-based adolescent and adult psychotherapy accessible to the people who need it the most; I offer a sliding scale and am willing to work to accommodate unique needs.
