Hello there! I'm looking forward to meeting you.
I'm a Certified EMDR Clinician and I've practiced psychotherapy for the past 12 years. I graduated Summa Cum Laude from Northern Arizona University with a Master’s degree in Community Counseling. I'm independently licensed by the Arizona Board of Behavioral Health Examiners and I'm also a Nationally Certified Counselor. Having worked in the behavioral health field for the past 17 years, I have a lot of experience serving a variety of populations, but I've developed a special focus in working with first responders and veterans. I also have extensive experience working with members of the LGBT community.
I really believe that therapy is a transformative and rewarding process. While supporting you in utilizing your own strengths and inner wisdom, our work will empower you to live to your full potential. Through the establishment of a stronger sense of self, you will be able to implement changes, find balance, and improve relationships by creating healthier connections.
I use evidenced-based therapeutic techniques in my practice. As a Certified Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapist, I've been able to conduct very successful therapy with patients with complex traumatic backgrounds. I also draw from advanced training in attachment theory to work through painful childhood experiences and to help clients learn to create positive healthy connections. I have a special interest in complementary alternative practices and often look to these modalities to support patients from a holistic perspective.
I am a member of the Arizona Trauma Recovery Network, a volunteer community of EMDR Professionals dedicated to preventing PTSD. Members are ready to provide an immediate front line response in the case of an emergency situation or disaster in Arizona.
I grew up in Washington State but I've been a resident of Arizona since 1984. My husband Matt and I reside in Gilbert with our 4 dogs. I love hiking and I feel closely connected to the Sonoran Desert region in the US and in Mexico.
I practice at the most amazing place and I have a great team of colleagues with advanced skills and a vast array of experience. We're all specialized in EMDR, making our practice the place to be if you want to overcome your past and achieve your goals. I offer a free 15 minute phone consultation or better yet, come see me at Infinite Healing and Wellness in Gilbert, AZ! If it doesn't feel like I'm the best fit for you, or if you can't get into my schedule soon enough, I would be happy refer you to one of my colleagues.
I believe in continuing education to stay on top of new information and to deepen my understanding of specific concepts and techniques. Some of the specialized advanced trainings that I have attended are:
