# Details:

I support others as a Certified Clinical Complex Trauma Professional, with training in a wide range of modalities including CBT, DBT, relational therapy, parts work (IFS), EMDR, Somatic Experiencing, and hypnotherapy. This extensive background allows me to tailor my approach to fit the unique needs of each client and the unique challenges they face in life.

Trauma is not limited to “big” events like death, assault, or addiction. It can stem from anything perceived as threatening by the nervous system. I approach each person with this understanding, meeting them exactly where they are.

Beyond my professional training, my empathic presence forms the foundation of the therapeutic relationship. I aim to walk alongside my clients, seeing the world through their eyes—offering compassionate support that helps them begin to see beyond their current pain. Our work together unfolds at their own pace, without pressure or hidden agendas.

This is a profound and deeply personal journey. It provides the support you need to move toward your goals—whether clearly expressed or discovered along the way. From building capacity, inner resilience, and distress tolerance to reconnecting with your authentic self, the process is uniquely customized for you. Ultimately, this journey can lead to reconciling with your past, being more present in your life, and holding hope for the future—if you’re willing to take the first step.

All you need is the desire and willingness to heal. Your strength will grow along the way.

I use an integrative, evidence-based approach tailored to each client’s needs. While cognitive work (what we remember consciously) is important, I often find that true transformation comes when we go deeper—beneath the surface—to address the roots.

Two powerful tools I incorporate here, which are:

• Somatic Experiencing / Embodiment
  This involves listening to the body’s stored stories and unresolved memories.

• Hypnotherapy
  Contrary to how it’s portrayed in movies, hypnotherapy does not involve losing control or falling asleep. It’s a gentle, guided process that helps access the subconscious mind—where many limiting beliefs and patterns reside, as well as the body’s own wisdom and healing capacity.
