I work to build a strong and meaningful therapeutic relationship and encourage my clients to be whomever they need to be in the moment. Combining humor and connection while using a trauma lens and evidence based models, such as EMDR, play therapy and Internal Family Systems, we will build the skills to confidently find peace in your life again.
