I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker with over 20 years of experience, with much of my career dedicated to working with individuals who have experienced trauma. I specialize in helping people understand how trauma and other life experiences can affect their emotions, relationships, behaviors, and the way they see themselves. I am trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), and attachment-based approaches. I am also a Certified Yoga Instructor and Reiki Master, which has deepened my appreciation for mindfulness and the connection between the mind, body, and overall well-being.
