I view myself primarily as a trauma therapist. I specialize in working with individuals with chronic PTSD, traumatic grief, or attachment wounds. After years of working in trauma I find I'm only more passionate about finding new ways to create opportunities for healing, growth and change.
I am certified in EMDR through EMDRIA. I am also certified in DBT through Evergreen.
Though EMDR is my primary tool for trauma work, I follow an eclectic model. I use elements of IFS, Attachment Theory and other frameworks in pursuit of providing the best possible treatment
I also offer clinical supervision to individuals who are working towards licensure.
