LCSW-R, EMDR Certified, ADHD-CCSP
No matter what background, it seems that everyone is searching for some peace and happiness in their lives and for many different reasons they have become stuck in trying to figure out how to accomplish this goal.
Throughout my education and career I have focused on a speciality in children, adolescents and families. I was raised with a heart for compassion and understanding and a natural ability to tune into other people’s experiences. With your help we can harness your own strengths and hopefully release any barriers that might be present and keeping you from your goals.
I specialize further in OCD and Anxiety in children and adolescents, EMDR treatment for trauma, and ADHD evaluations and treatment for all ages. While I specialize in children and adolescents about 50% of my caseload at any given time is comprised of adults over 18.
Some things about me that might matter to you: I’m a LGBTQ+ ally (preferred pronouns are she/her), I actively practice ways to be anti-racist, and I am an earth-loving, animal protecting, secular therapist. Never “done” working on myself and my relationships with others; I strive to put my therapeutic beliefs into action in my own life, which I hope leads to authenticity in my work with people.
In my spare time I enjoy walking my 3 rescue dogs (not all at once!), listening to music, reading, painting, watching a funny show, and connecting with family and friends.
