Trauma-Informed Psychotherapy
Compassionate EMDR & IFS Integration for Healing and Growth
I am an authentic and curious psychologist whose approach emphasizes respect, collaboration and warmth. I believe that unresolved trauma and reliance on coping strategies developed earlier in life inform most of the difficulties that bring one to therapy. While each client I work with determines their prefered path to healing, I support their endeavors with my experience and training in Internal Family Systems (IFS) and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing) therapies, two evidence-based trauma treatments.
