Hello again! I'm honored that you are considering working with me. I am passionate about crafting therapeutic environments for my clients to process life's adversities. Therapy is an art form and I am a creative at heart.
In 2012, I earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in Theatrical Design from Rollins College. I worked in the theatre and theme park industry for a few years and never considered becoming a therapist. After a few traumatic experiences in 2013, I found myself in a therapist's office for the first time. The process of paging through my past was oddly rewarding. I learned how to use my sensitivity as a strength and found my resilience. I also found my vocation.
In 2017, I completed my Master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling with a Certificate in Marriage & Family Therapy from Rollins College. I currently hold dual licensure as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor and a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I often work with individuals and their families from a systemic approach.
In 2020, my identity as a therapist evolved further when I became Certified in EMDR Therapy. I am currently a Consultant in Training for EMDR. I have grown to incorporate Ego States or parts into my work with clients. In 2025 I became certified in Attachment Focused Trauma Treatment for Adults (AFTT-A). This powerful ego-state intervention is underneath the umbrella of EMDR therapy, however, it is a gentler and often more effective way for client's to work with complex parts of their personalities. It is also highly creative which fits well with my personality.
In addition to EMDR and AFTT-A, I utilize Deep Brain Reorienting (DBR) to clear out lingering shock responses in the body that EMDR or AFTT-A may have missed during processing. These three therapeutic modalities work well together for total and complete healing. I am passionate about finding what truly works for the treatment of each client. I want to help you gain freedom from your past, craft a life you love, and develop resilience for the future. These are the most effective treatments I have found for complex trauma, adverse childhood experiences, PTSD, anxiety disorders, depressive disorders, Borderline Personality Disorder, Dissociative Identity Disorder, DDNOS, and other chronic health issues caused by years of nervous system dysregulation.
If my education and experience sound like a good fit then please send me an email to set up a consultation. I look forward to hearing from you.
