Transform Your Life
Heal from Trauma and Take Back Your Life
I am an EMDRIA-Certified Therapist with many years of experience helping clients heal trauma, process complex pain, and reclaim their lives. My work is grounded in clinical rigor, deep compassion, and proven science. If you're living in survival mode—struggling with anxiety, unresolved trauma, or patterns that keep repeating—you don't have to stay there. Healing is absolutely possible, and every part of you matters.
I specialize in treating C-PTSD, PTSD, trauma, and anxiety using only evidence-based approaches, meaning modalities backed by rigorous scientific research and real-world results.
Clinical Expertise & Integrative Modalities
EMDR + Internal Family Systems (IFS) Integration
I am deeply trained in Internal Family Systems (IFS) and incorporate parts work into EMDR sessions to honor and heal the protective parts of you that were formed in response to trauma.
This integration helps clients move beyond just “coping” and toward deep transformation and inner harmony.
Research shows that combining EMDR and IFS enhances treatment outcomes, especially for complex trauma.
Somatic-Based Trauma Resolution
I am extensively trained in somatic practices—a critical piece of trauma healing often overlooked.
Trauma doesn’t just live in memory—it lives in the body. It shows up as tightness, disconnection, digestive disruption, chronic pain, and more.
I incorporate body-based techniques directly into EMDR sessions to release stored trauma, support nervous system regulation, and increase your sense of safety in your body.
Mindfulness, Meditation, and DBT Skills
Trauma doesn’t just make the body tense—it also makes the mind rigid. Many clients experience black-and-white thinking, harsh self-judgment, or difficulty seeing options.
I incorporate mindfulness and meditation practices, along with DBT (Dialectical Behavior Therapy) skills, to promote cognitive flexibility, emotional clarity, and present-moment awareness.
These practices empower clients to respond to life with more choice and less reactivity.
DBT Leadership & Training
I previously served as Clinical Director of the Delray Center for Healing in Delray Beach, Florida, which operated one of the few DBT programs in the U.S. with full fidelity to the original model.
I have trained both professionals and clients in DBT for many years, bringing this high-level expertise into my private practice to support clients struggling with emotional dysregulation, trauma responses, and identity confusion.
Why These Modalities?
Only Evidence-Based Practices
- EMDR is internationally endorsed by the World Health Organization, ISTSS, and VA/DoD Clinical Practice Guidelines as a top treatment for PTSD.
- IFS has been recognized by SAMHSA as an evidence-based treatment, with growing research supporting its success in reducing PTSD, anxiety, depression, and dissociation.
- DBT is one of the most thoroughly researched therapies for complex emotional dysregulation, and its structured approach helps clients build a strong foundation of skills while working through trauma.
How We Work Together
- First, we build safety: creating a stable foundation through nervous system regulation, parts mapping, and skills for emotional resilience.
- Then, we process: using IFS-informed EMDR, somatic techniques, and mindfulness to help you move trauma through the body and mind in a way that feels safe and empowering.
- Along the way, we integrate: building insight, self-trust, and clarity so that you can live from your true self, not your trauma responses.
You Deserve to Feel Whole
- Restore flexibility to your nervous system and your mind
- Reconnect with your body and build a sense of inner safety
- Heal the parts of you that have been stuck in fear or protection
- Cultivate choice, peace, confidence, and clarity
You are not broken—your responses make sense. But you don’t have to keep surviving. You can heal. You can reclaim your life.
If you're ready to move from fragmentation to wholeness, I’d be honored to walk alongside you.
