About

Koru Therapy & Healing

The Koru plant is a symbol of movement, through growth, development, and regeneration. This is a perfect way to explain the progression of therapy. It is about growth through learning, self-exploration, communicating and healing. Working toward letting go of what was, to make space for what can be.

Experience

I have worked in the behavioral health field for over 18 years. From creating treatment plans for adults with intellectual disabilities, to working for a behavioral health managed care organization, to becoming a clinician for the past 8 years.

I am certified in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). This is a psychotherapy treatment designed to alleviate the distress associated with traumatic memories. It can also help with phobias and anxiety.

I also co-lead a group for female veterans with moral injury which usually (but not always) stems from military sexual trauma.

As your therapist, we explore you as a whole person. You are more than just the reason you're seeking therapy. There are many interventions/methods of therapy, but the best practice is to not limit you to just one but find the balance that fits your needs.
