Hi there, I'm Jade!

I work with clients who are ready to explore unresolved patterns and build healthier ways of relating to themselves and others. My focus is on creating a space where you can safely examine the experiences that shape your current struggles and discover new paths forward.

My focus

I have found that my style and approach are a good fit for older teens and adults who may be dealing with symptoms of depression, anxiety, OCD, and self-harming behaviors that are causing impairments in everyday life and their ability to function.

My approach

I am a trauma-informed psychotherapist working with clients with unresolved childhood developmental trauma (C-PTSD). I use EMDR, parts work (IFS informed), Emotionally Focused Therapy, and the Safe and Sound Protocol to help clients overcome inner emotional conflicts preventing them from leading healthy, happy, and functional lives.

My communication style

My communication style is calm, warm, and friendly. I strive to provide my clients with a warm, empathic, genuine, and accepting environment where they will feel safe enough to unpack unresolved traumas that are negatively impacting their lives.

My journey to mental healthcare

What attracted me to a career as a therapist was a curiosity about human behavior and how it affects our relationships and our ability to function, and a genuine desire to make a positive impact in people's lives.

My goals for you

My approach to goal setting with clients is to guide them in identifying their desired outcomes and developing plans to reach those outcomes.

Our first session

In our first session, we will begin by getting to know each other a bit. I will ask questions about specific problems that inspired you to seek therapy, what you hope to achieve over the course of treatment, a brief sketch of your life story, and any experience you may have had with therapy in the past.
