About

I am optimistic about life, therapy, and learning—yes, even now. During this tumultuous time, I find it more important than ever to stay current with my feelings, or else life becomes overwhelming, frightening, or a series of endless tasks. I offer online retreats as an antidote to ‘put your head down, and keep going’—the common strategy we in the helping professions employ when we are stressed and exhausted.

I am a Certified Internal Family Systems Therapist (IFS), an EMDR International Consultant and have extensive training and experience in resolving simple and complex trauma. I integrate Internal Family Systems, Structural Dissociation, and EMDR/Flash Technique therapies into my trainings and consultation. I divide my time between seeing clients, training clinicians, leading retreats and writing.
