Seeking help for your mental health is the most important decision that you will make in your life with long-lasting results. It is my vision that everyone should live free of judgment, distress, discomfort, and free of emotional turmoil. As a society, we have become conditioned to sit in our lives, to accept our circumstances, however unpleasant they are. Therapy can help overcome those circumstances. Together this can be achieved. I will stick by you and help you live the life you want. I use motivational interviewing techniques, CBT methods and my therapeutic modality is based on a psychodynamic /psychoanalytic foundation.

I am trained in Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders as well as EMDR.
Have you been feeling down or just a bit off lately? Like things are just kind of blah or you're going through the motions? It's possible you're experiencing some additional stress or sadness that would benefit from talking to someone who can understand and help you through this tough time. I am a warm, compassionate person who appreciates the unique experience of the person with whom I am working. It's important to tune in and be present and authentic with others, something I take the time to develop with my clients.

EMDR Therapists
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, minimizing its ability to trigger anxiety.
