I provide individual therapy for adults who are seeking to heal prior family wounds and traumas, improve their current relationships and quality of life, and are seeking support during times of transition - especially to parenthood. My personal belief is that there are three things that cause an immense amount of suffering for most people; 1) our inability to effectively identify, feel, and communicate our emotions, 2) our difficulty with tolerating uncertainty, and 3) our tendency to get stuck in patterns of rigidity. My work tends to be emotion-focused, helping clients to live more freely and flexibly.My predominant specialty areas are in trauma/PTSD, addiction, and perinatal mental health. I offer a dynamic blend of evidence-based treatments (e.g. EMDR, Cognitive Processing Therapy, Prolonged Exposure, Acceptance and Commitment Therapy, etc) while focusing deeply on how to use the therapeutic relationship to aid in building insight and healing.
