Finding wholeness and connecting to your wildness is not a luxury but essential to your spirit. I see therapy as a collaborative process of remembering who you are beneath the layers of conditioning that have told you to be smaller, quieter, more palatable. With me, therapy is a shared journey of orienting to your psyche's innate wisdom and capacity for healing. Many of the clients I work with find themselves in my counselling space after struggling for years. Struggling to live in a world that doesn't seem to be making sense anymore. Along with this, comes grief and loss from living in these polarising, collapsing times.

Using trauma-informed psychotherapy and EMDR, we work to process what the nervous system has been carrying so you can feel calmer, clearer, and more grounded in yourself.
You may be someone who feels things deeply and notices more than most people around you. On the outside you may appear capable and coping, yet internally feel anxious, overwhelmed, or drained from carrying more than you let on.
You might find yourself overthinking interactions, absorbing other people’s emotions, or struggling to set clear boundaries in relationships. Many of the people I work with are thoughtful, empathic, and often intuitive individuals who want to better understand themselves, feel calmer in their own nervous system, and develop a stronger sense of where they end and others begin.

You might be here because the bad days never seem to end.... perhaps you're feeling emotionally exhausted, disconnected or you’re stuck in a cycle of negative thought patterns like, “I’m not good enough” or “I'll never change or get better”.

Perhaps it's finally beginning to take a toll on you, or your relationships?

Who is EMDR for?
EMDR was initially developed as a treatment for individuals with Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), for whom memories of a deeply distressing experience can be inadvertently triggered by random everyday events. The procedure has since been applied in the treatment of many other conditions. For example, it is used by some therapists to treat anxiety disorders including panic and phobias, depression, dissociative disorders, eating disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorders, and some personality disorders. It is suitable for adolescents and adults.
Why do people need EMDR?
People need EMDR as a way to manage distressing memories that in some way hamper the ability to function in the present. The procedure is believed to target the way memories are stored in the brain. Evidence indicates that past disturbing experiences cause ongoing distress because they were not adequately processed, and when such memories are triggered in the present, they are accompanied by all the emotions, thoughts, and physical sensations as the initial experience.
What problems does EMDR treat?
First and foremost, EMDR is intended as a treatment for PTSD, to defuse distressing memories that intrude on and impair everyday functioning. It is also often used to help those who are subject to panic attacks, phobias, and other forms of anxiety. In addition, EMDR has been used to treat individuals with depression, eating disorders, and personality disorders.
What happens in EMDR therapy?
First the therapist takes an individual’s history, and then the therapist and client decide which distressing experience(s) will be the target(s) of the exercise, delivered via a side-to-side visual stimulus requiring lateral eye movements. The client will be asked to activate thoughts, feelings, and any body sensations related to the troubling experience. The eye movements are said to reduce the emotional charge of the memory, so that the experience can then be safely discussed with the therapist and digested, minimising its ability to trigger anxiety.
