My approach
EMDR therapy →Healing and transformation are already there inside you.
What we do in therapy is create space that allows that inner healing to come to the surface to be witnessed with compassion, clarity, and courage. From there we work to implement it into your life.

01
An honest relationship
This is the foundation of our work. Honesty begins with both of us. My willingness to be open with you including things I don't know, offer honest feedback, and show up as a real person is an essential part of building an authentic relationship.
I’m not a therapist who will sit quietly behind a professional mask, nor will I simply offer validation. When people experience openness from me, it becomes easier for them to be open with themselves and in our relationship.
I encourage you to ask me questions.
Mutual honesty builds trust over time, and trust creates the conditions where change can happen.
02
How I work
I use combination of IFS, EMDR, Brainspotting, Mindfulness & psychodynamic principles to help you better understand yourself & why you experience the feelings you do. In time, this will move you more closely to a life that is centered on your own contentment & purpose.
My style is influenced by Rilke, Maya Angelou, Thich Nhat Hanh, Mary Oliver, Ram Dass, & Babylove. I may even read you a poem in session.
03
Parts work — Internal Family Systems
One of the central tenets in my work comes from Internal Family Systems, which, at its core, is the idea that you are not a single, fixed thing or experience. You are a dynamic being made up of many different parts, opinions, and experiences — all trying to help in their own way.
When we begin to understand those parts — where they came from, what they have been trying to accomplish, and what they need to grow — something shifts.
Shame bends with curiosity. Fear softens from understanding.
You experience more opportunity to choose the kind of life you want, rather than simply reacting from old, unresolved patterns.
04
EMDR
EMDR brings the body into the therapeutic process. It helps you learn how to regulate your nervous system and reduce emotional reactivity. Using bilateral stimulation, we revisit experiences that once felt overwhelming so your brain and body can reprocess them with greater safety in the present.
As those experiences become integrated, present-moment intensity eases, and you build greater self-confidence toward the person you want to be.
05
Brainspotting
Brainspotting is another tool I use to help reduce emotional overwhelm and support your brain and body in reprocessing past experiences. I often think of it as a meeting point between EMDR, meditation, and psychedelics — a slow, present, open space where wisdom arises and past experiences begin to shift.
Where EMDR is structured and phase-based, Brainspotting is quieter and more open-ended. Your body already knows what needs attention; we simply create the conditions for it to be heard.
