Getting to the point where you feel like you need therapy can feel awful. You have probably tried many ways of getting better and they haven't worked for you or not well enough. Are you tired of feeling overwhelmed, confused, powerless and disconnected from yourself and others? You don't need to feel like you aren't good enough. You don't need to feel stuck in anger, sadness, fear or disgust. You don't need to feel like your past is heavy and weighing you down in the present. You can process your past so you can live in the present moment. You can feel good about yourself and connect to others. You deserve joy now and in the future.
I have researched psychological health and wellness for decades. Traumatic events or a bunch of distressing experiences can overwhelm us but we can recover and become joyful again. I use EMDR, Couple's, and Nature therapy to clear away a history of negativity so you feel light and hopeful. I will help you learn new strategies to handle things in the future.
How will you know by what you are thinking and doing that you won't need therapy anymore? Go ahead and dream of what you want your future to be like. I will screen you for trauma and limiting beliefs that amplify the stress in your life. We will work on a plan together and work at your pace. Book a Free 15 Minute Consultation to see if are a good fit.

Not everything is tied to trauma, but a lot is complicated by unresolved experiences. I explore what is limiting you, help you clear that out and then check on what is remaining that needs some good management strategies. After treatment, most clients feel relief, feel lighter emotionally, and mentally clearer. They feel like they can handle and enjoy life again. You deserve to feel better!

EMDR is my favourite! I love how effective, efficient, and permanent the treatment is for traumatic experiences. I educate clients on poly vagal theory which is a fancy way of saying that the reason you might be having a hard time now with past trauma is because your system is trying to protect you. You are not permanently damaged, you are just stuck.
