Your story is essential to me. Part of my job is to learn and know your story, understand your perspective, and gain insight into problems and obstacles interfering with your personal growth. I want to help guide you always with your best interest at heart. My goal as your therapist is to explore the roots of your distress and reduce it by helping you see yourself, your environment, and your relationships with increasing clarity. I challenge my clients to open themselves up to change and personal growth by raising their awareness of their thought processes, patterns of functioning, and relationships with others. I see my role as your guide and a follower in your meaningful and progressive journey to promote change. Connection, peaceful silence, laughter, and resilience are valuable pieces of this process. I listen closely and empathetically, but I do not stay silent if I feel that I can offer perspective, ideas, or a prompt to help you shift from, or better cope with, the uncomfortable. As your therapist, I am committed to helping you turn your emotional pain into inner power and cultivate lasting change. I am trained in Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR) which helps people process trauma and PTSD.
