Personal Statement
I am a licensed clinical professional counselor (LCPC) and approved clinical supervisor (ACS) in downtown Boise. As a counselor, I provide authentic, compassionate, and ethical support for adults. As a supervisor, I guide emerging professionals in becoming self-aware and ethically-competent helpers.
I bring specialized training in Eye-movement desensitization/reprocessing (EMDR) therapy for adults and Emotionally-focused therapy (EFT) for relationships. I am an EMDRIA certified EMDR therapist and Approved Consultant. I have additional training and experience working with LGBTQIAP+ clients. I believe in the transforming power of emotion and secure attachment for facilitating the processes of change, development, and healing. In whatever context, I am strongly committed to empowering and supporting others to know themselves more fully, to have relationships with deeper intimacy, and to know the richness and beauty of life in all its abundance.
