My Credentials & Expertise
Professional Certifications
I am a Certified and Consultant-in-Training in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Certified and Consultant in Brainspotting, and a National Emergency Responder and Public Safety Certified Clinician. I am also a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, Certified Family Trauma Professional, and Certified Children and Adolescent Trauma Professional.
Advanced Clinical Training
My clinical approach is trauma-focused and integrative. I am trained in Parts Work and Inner Child Work, and my work is informed by Internal Family Systems (IFS) and Structural Dissociation theory. I have advanced training in Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT), Deep Brain Reorienting, attachment-based interventions, and the neurobiology of grief.
Additional areas of expertise include substance use treatment, the Multidimensional Inventory of Dissociation (MID), chronic pain, sand tray therapy, and play therapy. My work is grounded in extensive trauma training and a strong foundation in neurobiology and relational healing.
Professional Experience
I bring experience across multiple levels of care and diverse populations, including community mental health, the Department of Child Safety, psychiatric hospitals, Partial Hospitalization Programs (PHP), Intensive Outpatient Programs (IOP), and outpatient group settings for adults and adolescents.
I have worked extensively with veterans, police, fire, and emergency response professionals, and have provided supervision to clinicians and other health professionals. My experience also includes supporting individuals in pregnancy crisis centers, members of the LGBTQ+ community, refugees, older adults, children, and adolescents.
This breadth of experience allows me to offer informed, compassionate, and culturally responsive care to individuals and families across the lifespan.

Therapy Intensives
I offer therapy intensives in 3- to 6-hour blocks for clients who are looking for focused, accelerated work. Intensives allow us to go deeper without the stop-and-start rhythm of weekly sessions, creating space for meaningful processing and momentum.
Each intensive is tailored to your needs. We may focus on Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Brainspotting, or Deep Brain Reorienting — or thoughtfully integrate all three approaches within one extended session. Together, we will determine the best fit for your goals and nervous system, creating an experience designed specifically for you. Therapy intensives are not covered by insurance.
