I work with women who have recently experienced a traumatic event and help them return to a sense of normal. I also work with women who have experienced traumas in the distant past but who have been feeling chronically anxious, depressed, out of control and/or hopeless. Perhaps you cannot remember the last time you did not feel anxious or depressed. Or perhaps your body being in stress for so many years has created health issues. Or perhaps you have turned to compulsive behaviors to escape or numb the pain such as over drinking, over eating, perfectionism, codependency, dieting, binge watching TV and more.

Who you are: Between the ages of 25 and 45. Life is "good" ~ not great. You have a sense that things should be a certain way, but they aren't. There is a gap. The gap may be clear ~ it may not. What is clear is that what has worked up until this point won't get you to where you want to be. You are ready for a change.

You’ve done the insight work, but something still isn’t shifting. You may understand your patterns, recognize where they come from, and still find yourself stuck in the same emotional loops. On the outside, you’re functioning. But internally, it can feel overwhelming, exhausting, or disconnected. If your mind understands but your body hasn’t caught up yet, you’re not alone. This is exactly where we begin.

You've done the work — the books, maybe even therapy — but something still feels stuck. In your relationship, in how you see yourself, in patterns you keep returning to no matter what you try. You want more than coping tools. You want to actually feel different. I work with individuals ready for deep self-love and transformation, and couples exhausted by the same conflict cycles. Using EMDR, somatic healing, and HeartMath biofeedback, we heal what's driving the pattern — not just manage it.

I would be unable to pen the right words to satisfy the reservations you may have about seeking therapy when you need it. Only you can do that. There are no magic words that make problems go away, and there certainly aren’t numinous websites or YouTube videos that will do the work for you. Therapy is something very personal and wholly unique to you. It is a journey that can often be deeply fulfilling, yet like anything worth doing in life, it can also be challenging.

How does neuro-linguistic programming work?
A therapist using Neuro-linguistic programming might start by building a strong rapport and gathering information about the client’s objectives and any problem areas. Then the NLP therapist will employ NLP techniques to guide their client toward healthier thoughts and behaviors. Clients will learn how to better manage their moods and hone their communication skills. NLP will conclude with the therapist and client making a plan for how to integrate the positive changes into their daily life in the future.
What are some techniques used in neuro-linguistic programming?
NLP therapists often employ anchoring, so the client begins to automatically associate their trigger with a healthier response. Clients also learn how to reframe a situation to change the way they react to it for the better, and how to replace the negative beliefs that are holding them back. Many NLP clients practice visualization or forming a mental image of themselves attaining their goals. Every NLP therapist will have their own preferred approach with specific techniques that they have found to be helpful for their clients.
How long does neuro-linguistic programming take?
Since neuro-linguistic programming is not regulated, the length of treatment can vary greatly. Some therapists may only use NLP in a single session, while others may employ it over the course of weeks, months, or even years. It depends greatly on the type and severity of the problem being treated, as well as the individual client’s response to NLP treatment.
Is neuro-linguistic programming evidence-based?
While some people may find neuro-linguistic programming helpful, either in therapy or in their career or personal development, the science behind this approach is inconclusive. Most of the available studies are small in scale and have produced mixed results, and the commercial nature of NLP lends itself to conflicts of interest. More research is needed. In the meantime, practitioners must use their best judgment of whether NLP techniques will be helpful in meeting their clients’ individual needs.
