I offer individual sessions for a variety of ages with the goal of guiding clients toward meaningful growth and offering practical tools to overcome difficult times. I also offer family sessions to help strengthen communication and relationships. I'm passionate about working with young women to empower them to find their voice and grow in confidence and self-compassion. I completed extensive training in EMDR, a type of therapy proven effective for treating trauma and Dialectical Behavior Therapy, a type of therapy that focuses on the balance between acceptance and the need for change in order to manage emotions, tolerate distress and improve relationships. It's an honor to walk with clients in difficulty and help them turn down the volume on pain and fear and increase both coping skills and confidence. On a personal note, I love Disney and the beach and my favorite treat is dark chocolate.
