There is hope! What I specialize in: anyone who has experienced childhood trauma, and those with chronic health issues, EMDR certified. You can find life more peaceful, and simple with increased connection with yourself and others. Being willing to reprocess the past with EMDR is the most effective way to treat current symptoms. Connection with others is a basic human need. I am sure whatever your symptoms are they are impacting your relationships. This is what is causing the most suffering. We all need relationships to feel happy and content. We will explore past trauma, increasing contentment. This is NOT traditional talk therapy.

We can work together to make this a reality for you. You are unique and your circumstances need specific support. Life doesn't have to be full of conflict or heartache. You can tolerate anything with confidence and calm. I am certified in EMDR and use a Buddhist mindset to support our work. This is hard work, but the result is life changing.

It can be difficult to reach out for help, especially in our current culture where it is extremely difficult to find a therapist with availability. I would love to hear from you and learn about your specific needs. Fit is so important and trusting your therapist is key. My clients are ready to do the deep work and are ages 25+.

The focus of treatment will be learning to tolerate emotions and hardships, so you can show up authentically. Also, cultivating strong relationships with yourself and others, and processing past trauma. With the use of EMDR, you could begin to feel better after 6-8 sessions. After 3-6 months you will feel more confident and peaceful with more joy!

I love to combine Western psychology with an Eastern perspective. I use EMDR as a tool to process hard experiences that have shaped your view of yourself or the world in addition to learning to accept life's hardships by increasing your tolerance for uncomfortable emotions. This combination allows space for you to handle anything that comes your way!
