I work with a wide range of emotional and behavioral issues providing services that span from therapy for depression and grief counseling to parenting support, couples counseling and beyond.  In a comfortable and supportive atmosphere, I offer a personalized approach tailored to each of my client’s individual needs to help them attain their personal growth. The modality I use to treat an individual depends on the goals and interests of the client. Some of the modalities I useinclude attachment-based treatment, mindfulness based stress reduction, Emotionally Focused Therapy for Couples, TF-CBT (Trauma Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, psychodynamic therapy, and EMDR.

EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing) is a modality of treatment that has been extensively researched and proven effective for the treatment of trauma. EMDR is designed to help people process unresolved trauma and transform negative beliefs with simple eye movements. Additionally, I use EMDR to treat anxiety, panic attacks, developmental trauma, and acute trauma.

When appropriate, I collaborate with highly experienced psychiatrists who can prescribe minimum medication to achieve treatment objectives.
