About My Clients

I work with clients ages 15+

My Background and Approach

I'm dedicated to tailoring our work to your unique needs by seamlessly integrating various therapeutic modalities. A key part of my approach involves blending two transformative methods: Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). Think of IFS like a journey of self-discovery. We'll explore the different parts of you - your thoughts, emotions, and experiences - in a safe, compassionate way. We'll understand why these parts exist and help them heal, so you can lead your own life with confidence and kindness. EMDR, on the other hand, is like a reset button for difficult memories. We'll work through distressing experiences from your past, helping you to process and reframe them. This not only lessens their emotional impact but also strengthens your resilience and sense of control in the present.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

As a therapist, I am warm and compassionate; providing space for you to feel seen, heard, and understood. I celebrate all identities, and I employ a social justice-informed approach in my practice with clients. I believe it is always important to consider how macro factors, such as oppression and social injustice, affect individual well-being. In our therapeutic partnership, you'll find a safe and supportive space for your personal journey towards healing and fulfillment!
