Specialties: Anxiety, Depression, Trauma, Addiction, Compulsive Sexual Behaviors,

Introduction

As a person in long term recovery who has benefitted from working with a handful of dedicated and highly qualified professionals, I view the work of coming alongside my clients and walking with them as we we unpack, explore, assimilate and integrate their lives, as sacred work. I am trained in multiple modalities including the Carnes Model of Sex Addiction Therapy, Levine's Somatic Experiencing, Shapiro's Eye Movement Desensitization, Dana's Polyvagal Theory in Therapy, Johnson's Emotionally Focused Therapy and most recently in Tatkin's Phsycobiological Approach to Couples Therapy. I am not a one-size fits all Therapist, and use what I've learned over the years to conceptualize and craft an approach to each case with care and creativity. Although I work with many therapeutic issues, my area of expertise is addictions and trauma, most specifically compulsive sexual behaviors and infidelity trauma, also known as partner betrayal trauma. Please contact me if you have questions or wold like to connect for a free 15 - minute consultation.
