    Individual Counseling

    I offer in-person and virtual counseling to adults living with trauma, depression, and anxiety. I enjoy working with those part of the queer/LGBTQIA+ community and who are Autistic and/or have ADHD. Other areas I enjoy working with clients on are:

    -Family of origin

    -Women’s issues

    -Self-worth/self-esteem

    -Relationship challenges

    -People pleasing

    -Perfectionism

    Intensives

    I offer EMDR Intensives. Intensives are a non-insurance covered service that assists in accelerated trauma processing. Unlike individual weekly or biweekly counseling, intensives can range anywhere from 2 hours to 6 hours within a 1-to-3-day time period.

    However, the intensives that I offer are at most 4 hours per day and at most 3 days in a row.

Specialties

  • Trauma, PTSD, & Attachment

    I specialize in working with those suffering from trauma, attachment wounds, invalidation due to neurodivergency, low self-worth, and intergenerational trauma. I utilize different approaches and modalities, mostly EMDR and IFS. To learn more about what trauma is, some signs of it, and how we address it, click here.

  • Adult Autism/ADHD

    Have you recently received a diagnosis for Autism and/or ADHD and you’re well into adulthood? Have you ever considered you may be neurodivergent? As a late-diagnosed AuDHD person, working with others who have been late-diagnosed, or are exploring their own diagnoses, is valuable to me. I understand the process and the different emotions that show up in response (grief, anger, validation, etc.). You deserve a therapist who truly understands and will accept you as you are.

  • Anxiety & Depression

    Life is a bitch right now. Cost of living is too high, we’re slowing descending into fascism, and billionaires rule over everything, and yet, we are still expected to go about our everyday lives- of which are already stressful as is! If you’ve been feeling on edge, restless, irritable, down, sad, and/or worried, you may be struggling with depression and/or anxiety.

Modalities

Therapy is not a one-size-fits-all. While I enjoy and mostly incorporate the modalities listed below, part of my approach is utilizing various techniques and interventions. See here for more info.

  • Eye Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing (EMDR) is an evidenced-based psychotherapy technique used to address trauma, depression, anxiety, low self-worth, and many other ailments. EMDR incorporates activation of the trauma memory, bilateral stimulation, and dual awareness (one foot in the present and one in the past) to foster resolution of painful memories.

    EMDR is an 8-phase treatment model which incorporates treatment planning, grounding and resourcing, and trauma processing, resulting in a decrease in trauma symptoms, improvement in sense of self and worth, and healing old wounds.

  • Internal Family Systems (IFS) is a technique utilized to connect with all the parts of us and facilitate connection, attunement, and healing. Oftentimes there are parts of us who are critical, judgmental, or shaming; or they hold information; or they are hurting. Through use of this technique, we learn more the parts, their roles, their needs, and their wounding. In utilizing IFS, we are able to help the parts take on new roles (should they choose), release the pain and anger, and create a softening in our nervous system. It allows insight into ourselves, the way we view the world around us, and our decision making.

  • Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is a modality utilized to help address unhelpful or hurtful thinking patterns, increase activities that enrich us and our livelihood, and helps create space for us to consider alternative perspectives.

    *While I am trained in and pull aspects from CBT, it is not one that I heavily use in my work with clients, especially my ND clients.
