I am a Certified EMDR Therapist and a graduate of the Hakomi Professional Skills Training program. I am also certified in Emotionally Focused Therapy for couples. In addition, I have training in parts work and blending parts work with other modalities including Internal Family Systems-informed EMDR.

In addition to my private practice, I worked as a therapist and clinical supervisor for an agency focusing on families with young children. I also worked as a clinical supervisor for graduate students at John F. Kennedy University and California Institute of Integral Studies. My memberships include California Association of Marriage and Family Therapists, Northern California Community for Emotionally Focused Therapy, International Centre for Excellence in Emotionally Focused Therapy and EMDR International Association.
