MY SPECIALTIES

STRESS & TRAUMA

I am a trained EMDR therapist as well as practice trauma informed art therapy. I believe in facing our traumas so they no longer have power over us today. 

​

What is trauma? For some people it’s a big event: a car accident, the loss of a loved one, for others it looks like the little every day moments that don’t get talked about, that you’re figuring out now aren’t normal. It’s something that’s preventing you from moving forward, happy, healthy, and excited about your future.

EMDR TRAUMA THERAPY

Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing, yes that is really the name. No wonder we shorten it to EMDR! This is an incredible brain based therapy that sounds crazy, but I promise ignites some pretty incredible healing. 

HEALTHY RELATIONSHIPS

Healthy relationships don't just happen. We start learning about them long before the first crush, first date, or first heartbreak. Kids are watching the adults around them, picking up lessons about love, boundaries, respect, and what relationships are supposed to look like. Teen dating is an opportunity to start building healthy relationship skills early, learn to recognize the green flags (and the red ones!), and figure out what respect, communication, and boundaries actually look like in real life. Because everyone deserves to know what healthy love looks like.

COMMUNITY ART

Art brings people together in ways that words sometimes can't. There's something powerful about creating alongside others, finding common ground, and realizing you're part of something bigger than yourself. For teens, who are busy figuring out friendships, identity, and where they fit in the world, community art can be a pretty amazing way to connect. It's about more than making art; it's about building relationships, creating belonging, and growing a community where everyone has a place.

Anxiety 

Anxiety looks different for everyone but there are key parts of it that may feel like it’s taking over your day. It may seem like you can’t focus at work or school, that you feel like you’re spending more time trying to feel and act normal so other people don’t notice that you’re just not present because the worry has taken over. 

Depression

It’s not always sweatpants and Netflix, it’s feeling foggy and not engaged. You’re not excited and you feel numb. You do the things you’re expected to do, but you’re not taking care of yourself, your sleep schedule is off, you’re in a funk that feels like it doesn’t end.

ART THERAPY

Sometimes the words just aren't there. And that's okay. Art therapy gives us another way to communicate, explore, and make sense of what's happening beneath the surface. Our brains process experiences in different ways, and visual expression can help us access things that talking alone sometimes can't. Sometimes a feeling, memory, or experience shows up on the page before we even know how to put it into words. No artistic talent required. Seriously. It's not about making pretty pictures; it's about making space for what needs to come out.

GROUP COUNSELING for
PARENTS and TEENS

Parenting is hard. Teens are complicated. And sometimes we all need a little backup. I offer parent groups on a variety of topics and teen groups built around what teens are actually dealing with right now. From healthy relationships and trauma to anger, big feelings, communication, and all the messy stuff in between, there's room for it here. No topic is too big, too awkward, or too uncomfortable to talk about.
