I have made it my life's work to help women, men, and couples overcome the pain of trauma and post traumatic stress. As a compassionate witness to your distress and suffering, my goal is to help you heal and feel empowered to achieve your goals. I believe in the healing power of psychotherapy, a warm caring relationship, and room to grow in your own unique direction.
I use the therapeutic relationship, along with EMDR, specialized EMDR for Complicated PTSD, Writing for Healing, Focusing Oriented Therapy, Ego State Therapy, Relaxation and Restorative Yoga Techniques as tools for Healing.

Anxiety is a feeling, just like anger, sadness, or joy.
It can be a pointer to things that you need to pay attention to.
It is a sign that you are stressed, or facing a difficult situation (such as public speaking or going to the doctor, coping with illness, your own or another's).
Anxiety is not always bad.
It can be a motivator to pay attention when something is bothering you.
When anxiety becomes a problem, it's because the feelings get too strong, don't dissipate when the stress is over, or cause you to avoid the things that scare you.
