Introduction

If you experience symptoms of traumas, feel like you do not want to get out of bed, feel like life is at a stuck point, or find it difficult to manage stress, I have qualifications and experience to work with you and guide you to minimize those symptoms so that you can begin to live your life the way you intend to live. I believe in my clients' abilities to take risks, work through their traumas, and experience healing. I have worked with diverse populations during my 18-plus years of experience as a therapist. I am trained in providing EMDR therapy and certified in CBT and DBT therapy modalities. I currently offer therapeutic services through a HIPPA compliant telehealth platform. If you like to work with a therapist who is rooted in empathy, respect, and an understanding of the impact trauma can have on an individual's mental and emotional well-being, I could be your therapist. You may be experiencing challenges in getting to a therapy office. Telehealth has allowed me to reach individuals who may face barriers to in-person therapy, ensuring that quality mental health care is accessible to everyone, regardless of many constraints. The ultimate goal of my approach is to empower my clients to regain control over their lives, heal from their traumas, build healthier relationships, and cultivate a sense of purpose and fulfillment in life. I look forward to working with you. Please leave a message if I do not pick up your call. I return my calls promptly. I offer the sliding scale option for persons with limited resources.
