Empowering You to Live Life Alive

---

Clients who work with me are often seeking greater peace, authenticity, and a deeper sense of aliveness. I integrate EMDR, mindfulness, somatic approaches, mind-body therapies, and Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) to help you understand not only your thoughts, but also how your nervous system and life experiences have shaped your patterns. 

Together, we’ll create a compassionate, collaborative space where healing feels safe, practical, and meaningful. My goal is to help you build lasting resilience so you can move through life with greater confidence, connection, and joy.

I specialize in working with individuals with a history of trauma (big or small), anxiety, caregiver burnout and MCI (mild cognitive impairment).  With over 24 years experience in the Alzheimer’s and dementia space, I enjoy working with individuals navigating this challenging path and providing tools to regain a sense of empowerment.

I am currently a limited licensed professional, and am supervised by Rachelle Laing Campbell. MA, LPC. 

I am trained in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) through the Center for Excellence in EMDR Therapy. EMDR is a well-researched, evidence-based approach that helps the brain process distressing experiences that may continue to affect your thoughts, emotions, body, and relationships long after they occur.

Whether you’re carrying the weight of a single overwhelming event (“Big T” trauma) or the cumulative impact of smaller, repeated experiences (“little t” trauma), EMDR can help reduce the emotional intensity of those memories so they no longer feel like they are happening in the present. As healing unfolds, many clients find they are able to respond to life with greater calm, confidence, and flexibility.

You don’t have to carry your past alone. If you’re curious whether EMDR is the right fit for you, I invite you to schedule a complimentary 15-minute phone consultation. Together, we’ll explore your goals and determine whether this approach feels like the next right step on your healing journey.

Live Life Alive.

Every relationship experiences seasons of growth and challenge. Couples counseling provides a supportive space to strengthen communication, restore trust, deepen emotional connection, and navigate life’s transitions together.

Whether you’re hoping to reconnect, improve communication, or build a stronger foundation for the future, we’ll work collaboratively to identify your relationship’s strengths while developing practical tools that help your partnership continue to grow and flourish.

Together, we’ll cultivate greater understanding, resilience, and connection so your relationship can thrive—not just through life’s challenges, but in its everyday moments as well.

I welcome couples of all backgrounds, identities, and relationship structures, and am committed to creating an affirming, inclusive space where both partners feel heard, respected, and valued.

Families naturally experience seasons of growth, change, and challenge. Family counseling provides a supportive space to strengthen communication, deepen understanding, and navigate life’s transitions together.

Using a collaborative and compassionate approach, I help families identify their unique strengths, recognize patterns that may no longer be serving them, and develop healthier ways of communicating, resolving conflict, and supporting one another. Together, we’ll cultivate greater empathy, resilience, and connection so your family can move forward with renewed trust and confidence.
