While I work with a wide range of clients, I specialize in helping individuals healing from trauma, loss, and anxiety. I enjoy supporting individuals adjusting to new life changes, those seeking to learn new coping skills, and womxn striving to empower themselves and their community. Helping individuals and communities heal from the detrimental effects of trauma is my passion, and I work to create a safe space where we can learn to hold hope together and build on your existing strengths and resilience. My practice philosophy is integrative, holistic, person-centered, feminist, and focused on empowering you. I am trained in the following evidence-based and research supported practices including; - Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) - Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (TF-CBT) - Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT) - Recent Traumatic Episode Protocol (R-TEP) - Group Traumatic Episode Protocol (G-TEP) Rooted in social justice and cultural sensitivity, I am committed to the principles of human and civil rights in my professional work and I’ve had the pleasure of working with clients from varying racial and ethnic identities, nationalities, gender identities, religious faiths, immigration statuses, and sexual orientations. At Empowered Wholeness we recognize that cultural competency can never be completely achieved, is a process that constantly unfolds over time, and requires dedication. In my personal and professional work, I am committed to a life-long journey of developing my cultural sensitivity in a way that is empathetic, inclusive, and equitable for all.
