My approach is grounded in my Advanced Practice Nursing education and enriched by both professional expertise and lived experience. I view mental health through a nuanced and integrative lens, allowing me to bring a thoughtful and perceptive awareness to each client’s unique needs. This perspective supports my ability to recognize subtle patterns and dynamics that may otherwise go unnoticed.
I bring a keen clinical sensitivity to trauma and distress, along with a strong capacity to respond effectively within the therapeutic space. While I draw on evidence-based, brain-focused approaches, I do not simply check technical boxes; I implement the science of the modality fluidly and with warmth. I believe it is equally important to offer a presence that is intuitive, attuned, relational, and responsive.
I strive to integrate both the art and science of EMDR therapy as it was originally intended—creating a space where clients feel genuinely seen, understood, and supported throughout their healing process.

Dissociation is a clinically significant term for involuntary disconnection from thoughts, identity, or reality, often linked to trauma. This is different from disassociation, which is a psychosocial term describing a conscious, voluntary action of cutting ties with a person, group, or idea. This distinction is important.
