About My Clients

If you’ve had difficulty finding therapy that is effective, you may want to consider working with a specialist. Traumatic or adverse life experiences may lead to a myriad of psychological and physiological symptoms. Our clients are seeking highly skilled professionals who can help in navigating their healing journey. Our clients are 10 years old and up. Our clients value that we are allies and that our clinicians represent multiple cultures, ethnicities, and backgrounds.

My Background and Approach

I have over 14 years of experience as a clinician and over 6 years as a clinical supervisor. I am a Certified EMDR Therapist and Approved Consultant who focuses on trauma as a likely cause of many other mental health concerns including depression, anxiety, addiction, etc. Other clinicians in the practice vary in experience; however, all clinicians are trained in trauma-informed care and EMDR therapy. We have a collaborative, supportive, non-judgmental approach with each individual we meet.

My Personal Beliefs and Interests

All humans are born inherently good and it is adverse life experiences that are the roots of problems. It’s not about what’s wrong with you, but what happened to you.
