Individual Therapy
Adults (18-65)
All services are provided via telehealth
Are you feeling emotional distress? Are you having nightmares or difficulty sleeping? Do you struggle with negative beliefs about yourself? Are you feeling stressed out or anxious? Are you having difficulty concentrating in normal everyday life and responsibilities or have put the things that matter to you aside? Do you feel stuck? Do your family and friends care, but don’t know what to do either?
People find me when their old coping strategies stop working. You need someone who understands and can help you put the pieces back together.
Individual therapy is curated to fit your needs and therapeutic goals by helping you identify the things that hold you back and no longer serve your present day life. You were made to be loved and understood, and therapy provides the space for you to experience just that. I care deeply about the most difficult pain you’ve experienced. I cherish that you trust in me to hold and provide support to courageously look at yourself. My hope is that through working together you will begin to listen to yourself, feel safe and empowered to rewrite the narrative of your life towards a better future.

What will the therapeutic process look like?
My work is centered around the balance of self care and the psychodynamic approach of understanding the root problem holistically in your mind and body. I integrate a trauma-informed, client-centered, and culturally attuned framework drawing from Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Ego State Therapy/ Parts Work, Somatic Experiencing, Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Family Systems, and Strengths Based approaches. Once you have learned the tools and resources you need to feel calm and present in and out of therapy, we will look inward at the root problem of your pain. If we can heal the root issue, your present day issues may be easier to handle.
"Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy is an extensively researched, effective psychotherapy method proven to help people recover from trauma and other distressing life experiences, including PTSD, anxiety, depression, and panic disorders." - EMDRIA, EMDR International Association.

What is Ego State Therapy?
You may have at times said, "there is a part of me that feels this way and a part of me that feels that way," or "on the one hand I think this, and on the other hand I think that." We all have different parts of ourselves that have different ages, thoughts, wants, needs, and behaviors. In Ego State Therapy, we will explore the various parts of you that contribute to the way you think, feel, behave, and experience the world. In this work, you and I will explore your parts' ages, functions, relationships, and needs. We will work towards an understanding or nurturing of parts. We will spend time identifying and enhancing the oldest, wisest parts of you and healing the hurt, angry, or afraid parts of you.

What is Somatic Experiencing?
“Somatic Experiencing (SE) aims to resolve symptoms of stress, shock, and trauma that accumulate in our bodies. When we are stuck in patterns of fight, flight, or freeze, SE helps us release, recover, and become more resilient. It is a body-oriented therapeutic model applied in multiple professions and professional settings—psychotherapy, medicine, coaching, teaching, and physical therapy—for healing trauma and other stress disorders.” - Peter A. Levine

What is DBT?
“Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) is a structured therapy that focuses on teaching four core skills (mindfulness, acceptance & distress tolerance, emotional regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness) to help you take control of your thoughts, emotions, and relationships.” - Marsha M. Linehan

What is CBT?
“Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is based on the theory that the way individuals perceive a situation is more closely connected to their reaction than the situation itself. Individuals’ perceptions are often distorted and unhelpful, particularly when they are distressed. CBT helps people identify their distressing thoughts and evaluate how realistic the thoughts are. Then they learn to change their distorted thinking. When they think more realistically, they feel better. The emphasis is also consistently on solving problems and initiating behavioral changes.” - Aaron Beck

Yes, absolutely! Part of my work is helping you learn and build individualized coping tools (or “resources”) and self care to provide initial relief and to fit into your everyday routine.
Resourcing may include mindfulness exercises, communication skills, re-evaluation of your sleep hygiene routine, and reinforcing the tools you are already using to regulate your nervous system.
