Therapist

Hi there! If you keep struggling and feel you have either tried everything or don't trust traditional therapy - I get it. Let's discuss a different approach...


I effectively treat anxiety, depressive symptoms, compulsive behaviors (sex, porn, OCD, etc), and most life challenges using Internal Family Systems (IFS) with EMDR.


IFS, or "parts work" is a revolutionary approach that's not the same as typical talk therapy. Couple targeted parts work with EMDR, and that is a powerful and effective trauma recovery approach that results in life transformation.


I offer an understanding, compassionate ear in a welcoming virtual setting.


I look forward to meeting you!
