Become free from your trauma.
As your trauma therapist, I help provide a safe space for you to heal from your unprocessed trauma. When treating trauma and PTSD, I only use evidence-based interventions proven effective through research and clinical trials.
Specifically, I use EMDR and Cognitive Processing Therapy to help you reclaim your life and become the person you hope to be. As a trauma-informed therapist, I also incorporate somatic approaches and other skills (e.g., grounding and mindfulness) to help you gain helpful tools in your recovery.
