My Approach

I provide individual counseling to adult survivors of trauma, including survivors of emotional, sexual, or physical abuse and acute traumas. I specialize in adults who have survived childhood trauma. Working along with my clients and developing a treatment plan together, I have found that treatment tends to go naturally in a three-phased approach, which is discussed in full in The Journal of Trauma and Dissociation by the International Society for the Study of Trauma and Dissociation.

​

I provide the psychoeducation to help you make sense of your symptoms, develop coping strategies including mindfulness and somatic resourcing, and will be by your side as you explore your trauma, furthering processing the memories that have been held in the body for too long. As a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, I use something called “parts language” to help us both gain insight into your experience. I have also been trained in a treatment called Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and can incorporate this into treatment if you so choose.
