I am an EMDR Trained and a Certified Internalized Somatic Trauma Therapist "ISTT.” I specialize in helping adolescents, adults, and families who have experienced trauma. That trauma can take any form - developmental, single-incident, or complex. Many people who have experienced trauma also face various mental health issues. I help them reclaim their lives. I have unique insight into the experiences of people who are immigrants, refugees, or survivors of sexual abuse. I invite anyone who is impacted by trauma to reach out to me so we can start your journey back to health. Your body often carries the burden of the trauma that has happened to you. I’ll guide you through techniques for regulating your body and mind. We’ll help you reestablish a relationship with your body, learn to turn inward with compassion, and live more fully in your body. I’ve seen the power of these techniques to restore well-being by unwinding trauma. You didn't sign up for the trauma you've been through, but you're going to be okay. Remember - we are traveling on this journey together, and I am here to support you and help you heal. Don't walk alone - reach out and schedule a call today.
