Clients often notice better sleep, less reactivity, and more steadiness and clarity.
EMDR therapy is for you if you feel like you should be okay, but are not. You may be managing anxiety that will not quiet down, past experiences that still feel close, or a sense of being stuck despite your insight. Many of my clients are caregivers, first responders, medical professionals, and outdoor adventurers who are used to pushing through but feel internally exhausted or unable to shift long-standing patterns. I specialize in EMDR therapy for this experience, when you are functioning but your nervous system still feels overwhelmed or impacted by the past.

On the outside things seem great, but you don't know how to stop people pleasing, perfectionism or how to speak your mind to your loved ones. You've prayed and read books, but you're drowning on the inside. You need long-lasting change NOW so you can continue to move to the next level and THRIVE. That's where brainspotting trauma therapy comes in.

Scott is greatly interested in helping people with life constraining and self limiting behaviors or problems. Most people don't understand these beliefs were embedded into their mind before 8 or 9 years of age and will continue to be locked in for a lifetime without help. Hypnosis can be used to replace these self limiting beliefs with more beneficial ones. Your subconscious mind will then automatically seek out success versus defeat. Scott considers it truly rewarding to help people create a more positive life for themselves.

Therapy with me is a space to pause, reflect, and breathe. I work with clients who appear put together—managing careers, relationships, and responsibilities—yet feel stressed, anxious, or emotionally drained underneath. My approach is grounded in mindfulness, self-awareness, and building sustainable habits that support emotional and physical well-being. If burnout, old patterns, or uncertainty are holding you back, I offer a steady, thoughtful presence and a space to slow down and explore what’s really happening beneath the surface.

Sleep or Insomnia Therapists
How effective is treatment for insomnia?
The most effective treatments for insomnia are behavioral techniques that reduce anxiety, including anxiety about falling asleep, and allow the body’s natural cycles to be recalibrated. The most common treatment is cognitive behavioral therapy for insomnia (CBT-I), which researchers have found to be more useful than medication, with rates of success as high as 80 percent.

Are there specific medications for sleep problems?
There are many medications, both over-the-counter and prescription that treat sleep problems. Supplements such as melatonin are popular and may help, though there is little evidence that it is more effective than a placebo. Prescription medications such as zolpidem are sometimes prescribed.

Are there natural treatments for sleep problems?
There are many natural treatments for everyday sleep problems. Reducing blue-light emitting screens, setting a regular bedtime, regular exercise, reducing caffeine and nicotine consumption, and keeping the bedroom dark and cool at night are all lifestyle changes that can help those who struggle with sleep but may not reach the level of an insomnia diagnosis.

What’s the difference between having trouble falling asleep and insomnia?
Life events, stress, and anxiety can lead to sleepless nights for everyone from time to time. To be diagnosed with insomnia, a patient must experience trouble falling asleep, trouble remaining asleep, waking up too early, or non-restorative sleep at least three nights per week for at least one month. Sleep problems affect one-third to one-half of the population, while chronic insomnia affects about 10 to 15 percent of people.
