I have a B.A. in Marriage & Family Therapy and M.A. in Psych. & Counseling, I specialize in trauma, incorporating EMDR and body-brain connections. I am trained in somatic experience, CBT, biofeedback, EMDR, and critical incident stress. I am trained to work with first responders and their families and do so regularly. I am a devoted wife, mother, and psychotherapist. I believe there is beauty in the ashes, perfection in the imperfect, and freedom in laughter. I believe that in connection with ourselves, God, and others - we find healing.

I use a variety of techniques to enhance the therapeutic process. I am trained in EMDR and have experience with cognitive behavior therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, motivational interviewing, and harm reduction.
