About

These beautiful, unpredictable, messy moments of life shape us, & I've learned that defining who we are through these moments helps us build the life we want. As a trauma-certified EMDR trained therapist, I work with a wide range of issues, & I specialize in grief, trauma, & illness/medical trauma. Whether recent circumstances are stressful, or aspects of the past need to be reconciled & faced, my clients are working to process, cope, & move toward holistic healing. They want to own their lives & feel better. They want clarity, meaning, understanding, & support working through daily challenges, anxieties, and stress management.

We hold the capacity to grow & move toward a life of health & happiness. Social, cultural, & family systems influence our perspective & how we communicate with ourselves & those around us. Sometimes we need to heal from-or at least learn to carry-past traumas or losses. In other words, context matters. We find tools for coping & connections for insight.

I use a mindfulness-based somatic approach which often includes integrated breathwork & MBSR tools, EMDR, CBT, & EFT to address the whole body impacts of processing. I bring 25 years of work in the grief & trauma realms, & have worked as a therapist in community mental health & led processing groups & taught at universities & nonprofits.
