Who is Roger as a Therapist?


My Philosophy

Healing isn’t about erasing the past, it’s about transforming it. I believe that every fracture in your story holds meaning, and when we understand these pieces with compassion and clarity, they become pathways to being anchored, connected, and free from old survival patterns. 

My approach is rooted in three core values:

Devotion- This is the heart of my work, a steady commitment to what truly matters. In therapy, that means we clarify what is essential to you and cultivate with intention.

Creativity- This allows me to approach your story with flexibility and depth, finding pathways that fit you.

Authenticity- This protects the work, ensuring that growth is real, embodied, and aligned with who you truly are.

Who I Work Best With

I work best with adults who want depth over surface-level solutions. My ideal clients are:

• Trauma survivors (single-event, complex,
developmental, attachment-based).
• High-stress professionals (doctors, nurses,
therapists, first responders, and leaders.
• People navigating distress related to identity, values, and major life transitions.
• Individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, burnout, and chronic overwhelm.
• Helpers, healers, and creatives who give so much they forget themselves.
• People who feel “stuck” even after years of therapy.

If you’ve ever thought, “I know the skills, but something deeper still feels unhealed,” this work is designed for you.

What It’s Like to
Work With Me

You’ll experience a therapy space that is:

• Warm, compassionate, authentic.
• Attuned to your pace.
• Deep, reflective, and transformative
• Creative and inspirational.
• Focused on addressing the root, not symptoms

Clients often share that they feel understood in a way they haven’t before. My goal is to offer that kind of support while guiding you through the internal work that transforms your life from the inside out.

Beyond the Therapy Room

When I'm not working with clients, you'll often find me spending time with my family, tending bonsai trees, exploring nature, or working on creative projects.

These areas of life continue to teach me lessons that also shape my work:

  • Growth cannot be forced.

  • Cultivate conditions, not outcomes.

  • Forgiveness heals.

  • Stop avoiding yourself.

Essentially, I have learned that healing begins when we stop avoiding ourselves, forgiveness loosens the burdens we carry, and growth emerges when we stop forcing outcomes and start cultivating the conditions that support it.

My Therapeutic Specialties

My Therapeutic Specialties

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)

A structured, evidence-based trauma therapy that helps the brain reprocess disturbing memories, sensations, and beliefs. EMDR engages the brain’s natural healing mechanisms through bilateral stimulation, allowing stuck experiences to move toward resolution. It is especially effective for trauma, anxiety, phobias, and long-standing emotional patterns that feel “frozen” in the nervous system.

Parts Work (Inner Child)

An approach that helps you understand and connect with the different “parts” of yourself. Such as the protective, wounded, adaptive, creative, and resourceful selves. Instead of fighting your internal world, parts work fosters compassion, clarity, and coherence. This process builds internal harmony, opening the door to healing patterns rooted in past experiences and unmet needs.

Core Values Work

A focused, grounding approach designed to help you reconnect with what matters most. Aligning your decisions and boundaries with your core values fosters clarity, direction, and a sense of identity that supports sustainable healing.

Brainspotting (BSP)

A powerful, neurobiologically informed therapy that accesses the deeper layers of the nervous system where trauma and emotional patterns are stored. Brainspotting allows us to work at the root, helping release what talk therapy alone can’t reach. It helps process trauma, emotional blocks, overwhelm, and long-held patterns.

Comprehensive Resource Model (CRM)

A deeply integrative, attachment-based model that uses layered resourcing to create profound safety in the nervous system. CRM helps clients access and process trauma without overwhelm by anchoring the body in connection, breath, attunement, and relational presence. It fosters healing at the deepest layers of self: identity, meaning, and lived, embodied wholeness.
