Welcome! I'm glad you're here. Whether you're feeling the increased stress from the pandemic, struggling with new or chronic anxiety and/or depression, substance abuse/addiction, or destructive thought patterns, dealing with recent loss or change, struggling with past trauma and/or recent traumatic events, you have come to the right place! I meet you where you're at, and work in partnership with you to identify, explore and understand your current difficulties, strengths, resources, barriers, supports and goals in order to develop and implement a plan to get you feeling better.
I bring a wide range of experience in mental health and wellness, and have advanced training in multiple therapeutic approaches. This allows us to effectively use proven approaches for a specific issue, as with EMDR. More often we tailor a plan specifically designed for you - your unique goals, characteristics, drives - by drawing from various approaches.
You are not alone. Times are tough, and besides that, our 'normal' difficulties, negative thought patterns, (often dangerous) coping, work, life changes, loss, emotions, relationships don't go anywhere! It can be really helpful to talk through some of the most difficult stress, more recent world-wide pandemic and unrest, or anything else that's on your mind.
