EMDR Therapy

EMDR therapy helps the brain process experiences that haven’t fully resolved on their own.

EMDR may be helpful if:

  • You feel emotionally reactive or easily triggered

  • You know something from the past still affects you

  • You’ve talked about things but don’t feel much relief

  • Anxiety feels tied to specific memories or sensations

EMDR is always done at a pace that feels safe and collaborative.


My Approach

I specialize in working with anxiety, trauma, and emotional overwhelm, and I integrate EMDR with trauma-informed and relational therapy approaches. I pay close attention to the nervous system and work at a pace that feels supportive rather than overwhelming.

Therapy with me is not about pushing or fixing — it’s about helping you feel more connected, regulated, and confident in yourself over time.

Education & Training

I earned my Master’s in Clinical Psychology from Azusa Pacific University, and I am a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (#155151) in the state of California.

I earned my Bachelor’s in Practical Theology also from Azusa Pacific University.

In addition to my formal education, I have pursued specialized training in EMDR and trauma-informed care, allowing me to support clients in processing experiences that continue to impact their emotional well-being.


Professional Experience

My clinical experience includes working in a range of settings, including churches, Christian non-profits, transitional living centers, schools, group practice, and substance use treatment programs. Through these experiences, I have worked with individuals navigating anxiety, trauma, and major life transitions.

These settings shaped my belief in providing thoughtful, individualized care that goes beyond surface-level coping strategies.

What it’s like working with me

Clients often describe me as thoughtful, compassionate, and easy to talk to. I value honesty and creating a space where you don’t have to have everything figured out before showing up.

Whether we are working through anxiety, processing past experiences, or building greater trust in God, my goal is to help you feel supported and empowered both inside and outside of sessions.
