I often use ACT when clients express to me they need support unpacking their options and committing to a choice with less shame and reduced fears. If you are interested in learning more about ACT check out a book (use the Libby app or your local library--it's free): The Illustrated Happiness Trap: A User Friendly Guide to ACT: the mindfulness-based program for reducing stress, overcoming fear, and creating a rich and meaningful life (you can also get the unillustrated version)!

I have personally used EMDR in my own therapy and it has been one of the most impactful, evidence-based interventions for me, personally. I have been an EMDRIA-approved therapist since 2023. I value the use of EMDR to treat (C)PTSD, anxiety, depression, maladaptive thinking, neurodiverse clients with high somatic responses, and

I love IFS and I have also used it in my own therapy. IFS is an evidence-based approach used to heal trauma. I use IFS with various populations to support clients in building self compassion and self acceptance. We are complex human beings with multiple needs and diverse values. Sometimes to get unstuck we have to learn to love all the parts of us to move forward. I have over 80 hours of IFS Certification for complex PTSD treatment through the IFS Institute Trainers.

As a gender queer, pansexual and AFAB person I have experienced my own cultural and system-induced traumas. I view therapeutic interventions and trauma treatment through a systems lens where I do my best to honor my own privileged and oppressed identities. I believe cultural traumas are part of our every day lives and healing cultural traumas means honoring our own agency, practicing self advocacy, and building acceptance around our sphere of influence which can include coping with grief.

I love being queer and I love my 2SLGBTQIA+ clients! In fact, y'all are my favorites! I value our experiences because we are precious, powerful, brilliant, tender, and often times deeply wounded by the systems we're exposed to in our homes, religious institutions, educational and work spaces, families, and even in queer spaces built by LGBTQ people. Helping LGBTQ populations to heal, come out, transition, process grief, and live freely is the work I value most as a clinician and former educator.

I have worked with complex and cultural trauma survivors for over 10 years. I am certain my previous therapists have checked this DSM diagnosis for me, and as a result of their labor, my own labor, EMDR, IFS, and other amazing humans, I feel more at peace with my trauma. Any intervention I use with clients, I myself have used with my own therapists. Trauma is something that happens to us, but healing happens too. You are more than a diagnosis--you are a person and we'll get you through this!
