More About Me
My approach to therapy centers my client’s experiences and objectives. I believe that everyone has the capacity for growth. I’m here to help you create the life you want, whether in your internal experience or in your relationships. I’m excited to partner with you as you step into a life of authenticity, fulfillment, and alignment with your personal values and goals.
I’m trained in a specialized therapy called Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART), derived from Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). ART uses bilateral stimulation, like back-and-forth eye movements or tapping, to help clients quickly reprocess and resolve distressing memories and symptoms. This approach is particularly effective for addressing the emotional impact of trauma and has been shown to reduce triggers, intrusive thoughts, and nightmares. Many clients experience significant relief from PTSD, Complex PTSD, anxiety, OCD, phobias, and more—often in just one session. If you’re struggling with any of these concerns, ART could provide the lasting solution you’ve been seeking.
After becoming a sacred sexuality educator, I discovered my passion for helping people find more fulfillment in their emotional and sexual lives. This led me to decide to change careers and become a psychotherapist. I have life experiences with giftedness, neurodivergence, marriage, motherhood, divorce, collaborative co-parenting, climbing the corporate ladder, career changes, raising LGBTQIA+ kids, and evangelical Christianity. I am a white, cisgender, straight woman; I welcome clients from all identities, cultures, and walks of life! I seek to embody cultural humility and honor our differences. I believe our shared humanity allows us to connect person to person. I look forward to learning about you and discovering what makes you unique!
