Introduction

I am a licensed clinical social worker specializing in trauma therapy and EMDR. As a certified EMDR therapist and approved consultant, I help clients heal from complex PTSD, dissociation, and developmental trauma. As an enrolled member of the Lower Elwha Klallam Tribe, I bring cultural awareness to my work, supporting Indigenous communities and others impacted by intergenerational trauma. With a background in education and tribal mental health, I also train educators and clinicians in trauma-informed care. In my private practice, I provide individual therapy for adults and adolescents, helping them build resilience and reclaim their well-being. I also offer consultation for therapists looking to deepen their EMDR practice.
