Substance Use Disorder often impacts individuals and families in painful + predictable ways that trap people in destructive cycles of interaction that lead to trauma and persistent feelings of anxiety, loneliness, anger, helplessness, and despair. You are not alone if your efforts to manage and move beyond the chaos and frustration of addiction have fallen short of your expectations. Don't lose hope!

Have you had a difficult or traumatic life experience that you can't recover from on your own? Did you grow up in a chaotic home where it felt hard to be seen or to get your needs met? You may have felt a persistent anxiety and lack of safety due to issues beyond your control.

I use
EMDR
(eye movement desensitization reprocessing) when working with issues of trauma, abuse, PTSD and negative beliefs.

Amy Allerheiligen
Marriage & Family Therapist, MS, LMFT
Verified
I use CBT and mindfulness to help clients learn how to notice their thoughts and feelings, challenge distortions and shift perspective;
EMDR
therapy gets to the root by processing disturbing memories that have lead to negative beliefs.
I help clients of all ages process and heal from traumatic experiences; these are things that happened earlier in life that may have been overwhelming and created false, negative core beliefs about oneself, others, and the world. Beliefs such as “I’m not good enough, I can’t trust people; I'm not safe” can significantly impact how a person feels, thinks and reacts to the world, and lead to issues such as depression, anxiety, and substance abuse. I help clients process those experiences, transforming the negative beliefs into positive, helpful ones. This allows clients to experience more joy and ease in their life and relationships.

Together we'll understand the patterns and dynamics that are holding you back. I'll help you create new strategies to manage life's challenges and deepen your connection to others. I help clients overcome hurdles that seem overwhelming so they can regain a footing in life, or a relationship, that feels meaningful again. You can expect me to be emphatic, honest, curious and supportive.

Areas in which I have experience and success are: anxiety, depression, ADHD, (both with children and adults) relationship problems, trauma(using
EMDR
), drug and/or alcohol abuse, grief and loss for adults and children.
Are you finding that your relationships are not working so well? It can be your relationship to yourself (just not feeling good about your self), your relationship to work (such as difficulties with co-workers or a boss), or your relationships with your family and/ or partner or friends. I believe that we are always striving to move towards personal growth and health. Our work is to remove these blocks with compassion and understanding so that you can achieve the changes that you want to make. My style is an interactive,individualized one with warmth, support, insight and humor.

I am Jungian-oriented, with
EMDR
. I have an engaged, relational approach, grounded in modern research on the brain, trauma and attachment. I believe the goal of therapy is to realistically become who you truly are--not to fix you, or tell you how to be. If you work with me, we'll look at your personal, family and cultural history, and the beliefs you hold about yourself and the world. Where we find traumas, disturbing memories, negative beliefs and uncomfortable feelings, we can use a variety of methods to loosen then, learn from them and heal them, including SE and
EMDR
.

EMDR Therapists
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is an information processing therapy that helps clients cope with trauma, addictions, and phobias. During this treatment, the patient focuses on a specific thought, image, emotion, or sensation while simultaneously watching the therapist's finger or baton move in front of his or her eyes. The client is told to recognize what comes up for him/her when thinking of an image; then the client is told to let it go while doing bilateral stimulation.
