MORE THAN TALK THERAPY
With compassion and expertise, I actively engage during sessions, with attunement and solution-oriented psychoeducation, rather than passive listening or traditional talk therapy.
Although the map to healing is unique for each client, I offer a structured starting point to build your Self-Awareness and Self-Leadership skills. I utilize Parts Work, EMDR, CBT, Mindfulness, Nervous System Regulation skills, and more.
learn skills & practices
Designed to align with sessions, my clients gain access to worksheets and tactical practices derived from the most up-to-date, scientifically proven methods.
Learn Emotional Health Skills, Boundaries, Parts Work, Self-Parenting, Mindful Self-Compassion, Mindfulness-based Stress Reduction (MBSR) and more. This platform guides your healing today, while providing empowering skills that last a lifetime.

Parts Work IFS Therapy, is a relatively new, evidence-based approach shown to resolve many conditions, such as depression, anxiety, phobias, and addictions.
It's particularly effective for treating trauma, PTSD, OCD, and physical health conditions such as arthritis, IBS, immune deficiencies, and chronic pain. Overall, Parts Work builds self-awareness and inner-balance.

TACTILE EMDR THERAPY
My approach incorporates IFS-informed EMDR. This transformative, evidence-based method helps people heal by accessing, reintegrating, and balancing out false beliefs and schemas. It resolves stress, depression, anxiety, PTSD and unprocessed trauma.
