EMDR & Trauma Therapy for Adults

In-Person Therapy in Boise, Idaho • Online Therapy in Idaho & Arizona

A grounded, compassionate space to heal the roots, not just manage the symptoms so you can move forward with clarity and confidence.

Life doesn’t look or feel the way you wish it did.

You may be considering therapy for many different reasons. Often, it’s not just one thing — it’s a combination of experiences, emotions, and patterns that no longer feel sustainable. I offer in-person therapy in Boise, Idaho, as well as secure telehealth services for adults in Idaho and Arizona.

You may be navigating the loss of a loved one, the end of a relationship, infertility, divorce, or a season of life that didn’t turn out the way you hoped. Even when grief isn’t visible to others, it can feel heavy, isolating, and difficult to carry alone. Therapy provides a steady, gentle space to process loss at your own pace.
Old wounds, childhood dynamics, or past trauma can linger in unexpected ways, triggering sudden anxiety, physical tension, or self-doubt. Even when you try to move past it, your body and mind may still fee on guard. Specialized trauma therapy helps unhook present reactions from past experiences so you can finally feel safe in your body.
You might be managing a heavy mental load, constant worry, or burnout from trying to keep everything together. When you’re stuck in survival mode, finding clarity on your own feels exhausting. Together, we will slow things down, quiet the noise, and build practical tools to help you reconnect with a sense of peace and direction.

WELCOME!

You don’t have to navigate trauma or anxiety alone. Relief and healing are possible.

My Services

Enjoy secure, convenient online counseling from the comfort and privacy of your own home. Virtual sessions offer the same intentional, high-quality care as in-person therapy without the hassle of a commute. Available to adult residents located anywhere in Idaho or Arizona.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is an evidence-based approach designed to help your brain process distressful memories, overwhelming anxiety, and deep-seated negative beliefs. Rather than just talking through the past, EMDR helps unstick painful experiences so you can find lasting relief and emotional freedom.
Discovering dishonesty or infidelity in a relationship can shatter your sense of safety, trust, and self-worth. Specialized trauma therapy offers a compassionate, steady space to help you process the shock, regulate your nervous system, and reclaim your voice and emotional ground.
Grief isn’t just about losing a loved one. It can stem from divorce, broken dreams, career shifts, or major life changes. Therapy provides a non-judgmental space to honor your pain, process complex emotions at your own pace, and gradually cultivate hope for the future.
Navigating burnout, life transitions, high expectations, or perinatal mood and anxiety disorders (PMADs) can feel isolating. Tailored care supports women through pregnancy, postpartum, identity shifts, and the heavy mental load of daily life with practical tools and deep compassion.
