History
I encountered EMDR during my first week of college, and was so blown away by the power of it that I decided to dedicate my career to it. I learned that the only way to practice EMDR is as a licensed clinician, so I began the 11-year journey to becoming a licensed clinician. There's nothing I enjoy more in my practice than seeing the changes in my clients after just a few sessions of EMDR.
Specialties
As an LMFT, I specialize in seeing couples (including poly couples), children, and adults or children who have experienced trauma. To treat trauma, I use a specialized technique called EMDR (see my website for more info on this technique). Repeated studies show that with EMDR therapy, clients can experience the benefits of psychotherapy that once took years to make a difference. I have a gentle, yet firm approach to therapy, which can sometimes feel like deep work and sometimes like a conversation with a life-long friend. For therapists: I do marketing and web design for other therapists. See my website for details and a whiteboard animation video showing services I offer (including whiteboard animation videos!)
