Have you found your life shaped by difficult early experiences with parents or caregivers? Perhaps you grew up with unavailable, unpredictable, critical, or self-involved caregivers and you now struggle with self-trust, boundaries, attachment, relationships or shame.
You may have lived your formative years always waiting for the other shoe to drop, or maybe you did your best to prevent an adult in your life from blowing up. Perhaps you learned how to stay small to stay safe. You adapted the best way you could while living in a situation that did not foster self-confidence or allow you to connect with feelings of safety or peace.
My approach goes beyond talk therapy. I specialize in techniques showing strong evidence for treating trauma such as EMDR and Accelerated Resolution Therapy (ART). These techniques allow you to keep your knowledge and experience from the past while healing the pain. See my website for more information on EMDR and ART and contact me for a free consultation!
Sensitive stories require a human approach. You may feel ready to untangle painful parts of your past, while also being aware that the wrong approach might cause you to shut down or break down. In your work with me, you will experience therapy moving at a pace that allows you to build confidence in your ability to face painful memories without overwhelm.
