I am a licensed professional counselor (LPC) specializing in working with clients who are dealing with the Trauma of Betrayal, Sex & Porn Addictions, Narcissistic Abuse, Childhood Trauma and Marital Relationship Issues. With a focus on the mind-body connection, I compassionately guide my clients in understanding and changing their unhealthy thinking patterns, reframing their self-limiting, shame-based beliefs and in reprocessing the trauma held in their body. My approach is very highly-individualized, solution-focused, and supported by the latest reliable research. I believe that we “repeat what we don't repair” and have the power to heal from our pain. Lasting healing and recovery is absolutely achievable!
As one of the first therapists nationwide to implement and facilitate Betrayal Trauma Healing Groups using the Prodependence approach, I have integrated several methods and tools that support long-term recovery. I am a certified EMDR therapist, an IITAP Certified Sex Addiction Therapist (CSAT), trained in Accelerated Resolution Therapy, Brainspotting, EFT (couples) and hypnotherapy.
My own life's journey has led me to the profession of counseling. I have personally experienced the healing power of psychotherapy in working through my own anxiety and depression, narcissistic abuse, betrayal trauma and relationship issues. I honor my client's commitment to healing as they show up with vulnerability and a desire to create healthy changes.
