About My Clients

As an EMDR therapist, I work with people whose parents and caregivers were unable to provide the emotional support and guidance they needed in childhood, even if they were well-intentioned. Ranging from emotional misattunement to outright abuse, these experiences lead to deep-seated (and sometimes unconscious) negative beliefs about oneself and others that precipitate depression, anxiety, unsatisfying careers, disconnected relationships, and difficulty feeling satisfaction and contentment.

How I Can Help You

Often the safest way to cope with the aftershock of childhood trauma & neglect is to create a workable persona or "protector," vigilantly committed to keeping us safe by avoiding further emotional injury at any cost. As adults, day-to-day challenges trigger our protective parts with anxiety-provoking situations that elicit reactive, shielding responses, & keep us stuck looping in repetitive cycles. While these protective defenses with their "never again" mantra had reliably sheltered our vulnerability in the past, today they function as painful reminders of lingering wounds & barriers to joyful, meaningful connection with others. When connected to & operating from our true SELF, we can cultivate secure—ultimately transformative—attachments to the shunned, shamed, & exiled pain-holding parts of our innermost being. This healing process engenders an internal harmony and equanimity once only dreamed possible, allowing you to make choices grounded in the authenticity of who you truly are.

Why I am a Good Fit for You

I’m a mental health therapist and nutritionist with an integrative mind-body approach to wellness and healing. I offer a non-pathologizing and compassionate perspective to the human experience, where our symptoms and challenges make sense within the context of our life history. My goal is to connect you to your own internal healing resources and sense of resilience, enabling you to resolve long-standing barriers to a joyful, meaningful life. I integrate EMDR and IFS as they are preeminent, accelerated psychotherapies, which allow you to experience immediate, rapid relief, often within the first few sessions. As a former DBT group facilitator, I also provide skills to improve emotional regulation, distress tolerance, mindfulness, and interpersonal effectiveness. Many of my clients are able to enjoy shorter treatment durations.

I offer online counseling in the following states:
