Some stuff about me…

My favorite thing about working with people is that I get to witness their innate ability to not only bounce back from trauma, but to learn, thrive, and move on. I love seeing people tap into the resilience that is innately theirs. My passion is EMDR therapy; it informs everything I do as a therapist and a, consultant, and trainer. EMDR helps us to utilize the power of our brains to heal, reframe negative experiences, and grow. I have watched people begin to believe in themselves at a level they previously did not see possible.
