Sometimes things happen in our lives that change who we are and what we believe about ourselves or the world. If you have experienced abuse, divorce, job loss, health struggles, or other traumatic events, you might struggle to feel safe, lovable, in control, or connected with others. You might feel depressed or anxious, and daily life might feel dull or difficult. You may have tried traditional talk therapy to no avail.
Life doesn’t need to be this hard. You can find joy and meaning and rediscover yourself. In my practice, I use Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy (EMDR) to help you to process your traumas and grow from them, rather than feel burdened by them. EMDR is widely recognized as one of the most effective, efficient trauma therapies available.
Please reach out. I know the first step is scary, but I will be here to support you every step of the way.
