Introduction

With 20 years of experience as a therapist and EMDR certified, I bring both clinical skill and intuitive depth to my work. I create spaces that are affirming, accepting, and grounded in humor and real connection. My approach blends evidence-based practices like EMDR, CBT, and mindfulness with intuitive insight. Clients often say they feel deeply seen, supported, and empowered in our work together. I love what I do and show up fully—with warmth, clarity, and strong, healthy boundaries.
