Who I Work With

Ready to Learn & Grow?

Are you interested in Receiving therapy?

I work with adolescents and adults who are ready to explore, heal, and grow. I combine evidence-based practices like EMDR with a warm, welcoming environment where you’ll be genuinely heard and supported.

Do you want to learn more about EMDR?

For fellow therapists, I offer comprehensive EMDR training and consultation services. I encourage learning through practice, viewing challenges as opportunities for growth, and developing the confidence to apply EMDR even in the most challenging cases.

Are you looking for a speaker?

I'm committed to delivering content that inspires growth for audiences including community mental health centers, EMDR therapy providers, mental health therapists, and schools. My talks and presentations on EMDR, trauma-informed leadership, and clinical documentation are engaging, insightful, and immediately applicable.

Experience & Expertise

My Story

Flourish. It’s a word that encapsulates my belief that everyone has the innate ability to heal, grow, learn, and become. But “flourish” also has a special meaning to me: It reminds me of my best friend, who showed me how to truly live despite her physical challenges. Her philosophy of flourishing, symbolized by butterflies, inspires my practice and approach to therapy.

As a Licensed Professional Counselor with over 18 years of experience, I’m on a mission to increase access to quality mental health care. My experiences range from community mental health centers and schools to private practice. With a background in leadership, research, and program development, I bring a unique perspective to creating lasting, transformative change. I've also worked with diverse populations, always driven by the belief that sensitive care can change lives.

I'm known as an expert in EMDR, with extensive experience in the field. I am a consultant for Basic Training for both the EMDR Institute and Trauma Recovery EMDR Humanitarian Assistance Programs (HAP). I have served as a member of the HAP faculty, clinical team, and the HAP Clinical Conference Committee, and as the clinical lead for the TRNs. Currently, I am also the executive director for Trauma Recovery/HAP. Additionally, I served on the EMDRIA Membership Committee.
