My Services
I use creativity, spontaneity and humor (a must!) in my sessions. I use several modalities of treatment, including sand therapy, Cognitive-Behavior therapy (CBT), EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing), Gestalt Therapy, Solution Focus therapy, Narrative therapy, dream analysis, Psychodynamic therapy, and mindfulness. I will also use art as way to help kids express their feelings in sessions. I believe that therapy is different for each client and I use the client's unique personality to determine what modalities to use in session.

For middle and high schoolers, adolescents and women.
I give my clients a safe, non-judgemental place for them to explore and understand themselves on a deeper level. I help guide them to find better choices for themselves, and help them feel happier.

​According to EMDR institute Inc:
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a psychotherapy that enables people to heal from the symptoms and emotional distress that are the result of disturbing life experiences.
Repeated studies show that by using EMDR therapy people can experience the benefits of psychotherapy that once took years to make a difference. It is widely assumed that severe emotional pain requires a long time to heal. EMDR therapy shows that the mind can in fact heal from psychological trauma much as the body recovers from physical trauma. When you cut your hand, your body works to close the wound. If a foreign object or repeated injury irritates the wound, it festers and causes pain. Once the block is removed, healing resumes.
EMDR therapy demonstrates that a similar sequence of events occurs with mental processes. The brain’s information processing system naturally moves toward mental health. If the system is blocked or imbalanced by the impact of a disturbing event, the emotional wound festers and can cause intense suffering. Once the block is removed, healing resumes.
Using the detailed protocols and procedures learned in EMDR therapy training sessions, clinicians help clients activate their natural healing processes.

I work with parents of children of all ages. I help support parents from before birth and beyond. Being a parent in today’s digital world can be challenging.
I also help assist families with parenting skills and boundaries. I am a mother, so I understand the pressures and stress of parenting in today's digital world.
