treatment of trauma, and concerns related to sex and relationships. I have a passion for and
special interest in reducing shame and stigma as it relates to human sexuality. I work with

couples. I am EMDR trained, on my way to EMDR certification, and also utilize mindfulness
based techniques and ego state therapy (“parts work”) with clients, although I tailor my
approach to fit each client’s unique needs. I am a Gottman Level 1 certified couple’s therapist
