Hello! I am a licensed clinical social worker (LICSW) and EMDR Certified Therapist who operates my telehealth & consultation service business, KD Collaborations. Aside from my service as a consultant with the Vermont Child Psychiatry Access Program (see www.vtcpap.com for more information). on the private practice side of my work I serve as a trauma therapist who supports adolescent and adult clients seeking to address symptoms of personal & cultural trauma (namely anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress, as well as attachment & adjustment challenges, and navigating periods of grief & loss). I am privileged to have a specialty in supporting members of the 2SLGBTQ+ communities (particularly those who are transgender, non-binary, genderfluid, and/or genderqueer), and also have subspecialties in the areas of substance use, and disordered eating/body image work. While EMDR is the primary framework and method that nearly all my clients access in our work together, I also partner with my clients to tailor a blend of techniques from CBT, DBT, and Internal Family Systems that fit their unique strengths and goals. However across my work, the lenses that root my practice are from human rights, feminist, social justice, and systems theories, as well as trauma and attachment-responsive frameworks; and I prioritize anti-oppressive, collaborative, strengths-based, and solutions-focused approaches.
