My work includes adults, teens, and couples sessions with a focus on the treatment of trauma related symptoms and PTSD. 

Typically my clients reach out to me because of feelings of sadness, worry, and disconnection in important relationships. My clients are often people who describe themselves as being “do-ers”, goal oriented people who have difficulty slowing down to understand their internal world and why they do what they do. 

Many of my adult clients are medical professionals, first responders, and veterans who have worked hard to train themselves to manage their emotional reactions because of the need to focus and perform in their work setting. This skill of sidelining emotions becomes a double edged sword that can lead to professional success and recognition while negatively impacting relationships and making it difficult to access their internal, emotional world. 

My work with teens is focused on treating PTSD and trauma related symptoms. I see teens 14+ and their families to address the impact of both recent and historical traumas using either EMDR or a trauma focused CBT approach.
