About

Evolve

Your difficulties provide an invitation to access the strength and worth within you, and an opportunity to heal and move forward with greater ease. I have the privilege of working with individuals and couples that are experiencing the anxiety, sadness and confusion that arise from complex trauma. These show up as issues in relationships, feelings of overwhelm, "stuck-ness", self-doubt and difficulty finding joy in life. I am a Certified EMDR Therapist, Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction teacher and am trained in Ego State/Internal Family Systems therapy and Gottman Method. I offer virtual sessions. My style is informal, warm, positive and client-centered. As you research the best fit for you, I welcome your inquiry.
