Trauma can shape how people relate to themselves, others, and their sense of internal safety. My work focuses on helping patients understand and process these effects in a way that is carefully paced, grounded, and tailored to the individual.

I am a trauma-focused therapist with advanced training in EMDR, specializing in PTSD and complex trauma. Treatment is individualized for each patient and draws from multiple evidence-based approaches rather than a single model. Much of my work integrates EMDR with somatic interventions and Internal Family Systems (IFS), allowing therapy to address both emotional and physiological responses to trauma.

I work with individuals processing childhood and developmental trauma, as well as more recent traumatic experiences. My clinical background includes emergency psychiatric care, inpatient treatment, and long-term outpatient therapy, which informs a flexible and responsive approach.

Trauma work can be deep and demanding, and it does not have to be heavy all the time. Sessions may include moments of seriousness and intensity alongside warmth, humor, and lightness when it feels helpful. The work is collaborative, human, and attuned to what each patient needs in the moment.

My approach is scientifically informed and humanistically inclined. The goal is not to erase the past, but to support healing that allows you to enjoy what is good in your life and handle what is difficult, without trauma continuing to dictate your reactions or dominate how the present feels.
