There is a wide range of people I work with. Many of them are kind, naturally empathic and are seeking help with boundaries, clarity and reciprocity in their relationships. There is humor, shared stories, moments of deep understanding and connection. Most clients are seeking affirmation that they are 'ok' and that their feelings and experiences are human. We are so much more than what we perceive our problems are. My goal is that you leave the first session with hope, optimism and courage to learn about old patterns and make changes to your life and relationships.

Do you ever feel like something is holding you back in life? Maybe you feel a sense of disconnection with yourself or aspects of your life? Or that part of you isn't able to move forward from a past experience? Oftentimes we may have an idea of where we want to go and how to get there, but we struggle with being able to take action. This could be for a variety of reasons, and our work together could help explore the underlying thoughts, beliefs, and/or emotions that might contribute to feeling stuck or disconnected.

EMDR Counsellors
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.
