I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 10 years of experience.

My focus in on trauma informed care, and I am trained in EMDR, Somatic Experiencing, and Internal family systems work. This includes an understanding of how painful events affect the nervous system, the body and the brain. Trauma also effects our physical health, our relationship to ourself and others, and how effective we can be in the world and these are also addressed in treatment.

Rather than focus on retelling painful events (which for many reasons can be re-traumatizing) the work is more focused on working with the body and the stress physiology in order to increase capacity to be present and enjoy life.

• Free assessment/consultation by phone is available (45 min maximum)

• Mode of working: Relational/client centered approach. Specialty in trauma-informed care
