SPECIALIZATIONS
-
I specialize in EMDR and EMDR techniques. Read more about EMDR in our work here.

Somatic practice integrates the body into the healing process, recognizing that emotional distress and trauma are often held not just in the mind, but also in the nervous system and physical body. I help clients build awareness of bodily sensations, regulate their responses, and release patterns of tension or activation related to past experiences.

Managing an illness often also involves reckoning with grief, supporting caregivers, and sometimes the complexity of navigating health systems exacerbates the stress felt by all. It can be confusing to know how to navigate taking medical leave and completing advance health care directives. I provide support for those managing a serious illness and those experiencing end of life, as well as their loved ones.
Adding therapy to your support system during these sensitive times can help process and integrate these deeply moving and often challenging experiences.

I see conversations about identity, sex and gender as assets to psychotherapeutic work. My work in the US began at the Mazzoni Center, Philadelphia’s LGBTQ healthcare center, and I’ve personally been a direct caregiver for gender affirming surgery recovery. I’m available to write gender-affirming care letters of support. As a member of the LGBTQ+ community, I’m committed to understanding individual nuances and supporting our strengths.
