Trauma-Focused.

My training in and commitment to evidence-based trauma-focused treatments (e.g., ACT, EMDR, IFS, PE, CPT) allows me to practice from this unique lens with all of my clients healing from a traumatic event(s). Everyone processes trauma differently, therefore there is no “right” approach to this therapeutic experience. We will work together to determine the “appropriate” treatment approach for you and allow for flexibility. Not everyone who experiences a trauma has PTSD. Many individuals struggle in the aftermath of trauma and “get stuck” along their healing process. Depending on what is getting in the way of you living a meaningful life after trauma and what kinds of difficult emotions you are willing to face in therapy, we will work collaboratively to determine your individualized treatment plan. It is also ok to be unsure about what therapy you would like to try or even if you don’t know if you want to engage in specific trauma-focused work at all. I will help guide you and offer recommendations depending on your individual experiences and goals.
