Experience the transformative power of EMDR. Change is possible! You feel stuck and the answers don't seem to be working for you. Often, you experience underlying feelings of sadness, shame, anger, fear, and loneliness despite “living the good life.” You can’t sleep, or find yourself triggered by the smallest things. You don't completely understand the pain, and it’s left you confused and hopeless. Others seem to go so effortlessly through their days, while you’re struggling to keep it together. It takes so much effort to get out of bed, and it is hard to enjoy the life you have worked so hard to build.

I have been trained as an EMDR therapist for over twenty years and use this training to help adults process trauma, manage pain, lose weight, enhance their performance, and, improve their daily functioning.
It is my belief if you are not where you want to be in some aspect of your life that you have complete control to change "something" in order to improve where currently are and to "feel better and be better" both mentally and physically. I have spent the past twenty-three years working in a variety of setting with a variety of clients helping people do just that "be better." The road to this will look very different from person to person, but the end result is the same "positive change."

What is SE? Somatic Experiencing® method is a body-oriented approach to the healing of trauma, chronic pain and other stress disorders.
My clients often come to counseling feeling broken and lost from grief and unresolved trauma, struggling with anxiety, fear and depression. Past experiences may have led them to believe they are only their brokenness, clouding any other awareness of who they are or what their life holds. I offer a safe, supportive environment to begin to explore those experiences and discover strength, healing, and resilience.

Chronic Pain Therapists
How does chronic pain therapy work?
Engaging with a psychotherapist to help treat chronic pain does not mean that one’s pain is all in their head. Therapy for chronic-pain patients has been shown to benefit both the mind and the body, targeting physical symptoms and increasing daily functioning. In other words, for many, addressing their emotional health through therapy affects their physical health. A therapist can help a client challenge unhelpful thoughts about pain and develop new ways to respond to it, such as distraction or calming breathing techniques. Studies have found that therapy can be as effective as surgery for certain cases of chronic pain and many doctors recommend trying psychotherapy in advance of considering invasive surgery.
What are the most effective treatment options for chronic pain?
Stress, anxiety, depression, catastrophizing, ruminating, lack of activity, and social withdrawal all make chronic pain worse. Addressing these issues, research shows, can help people gain control over their pain symptoms. Therapeutic approaches such as cognitive behavioral therapy, biofeedback, and mindfulness-based stress reduction, along with greater pain-management education, have been found to help people reduce fear and disability.
Are there new treatments for chronic pain?
Many cases of chronic pain, particularly those involving back pain, remain medically unexplained. But there is evidence that changes in the brain or nervous system are caused by previous physical ailments such as tissue damage; in such cases, the brain may continue to send out pain signals despite the physical cause having healed. To aid patients under these circumstances, a recently developed treatment known as pain reprocessing therapy (PRT) is designed to help the brain “unlearn” this response. A PRT practitioner helps individuals to reduce the “threat value” of their ongoing pain signals until they can reappraise them as less threatening and fear-inducing. They also help an individual to develop new emotional regulation skills.
How long does therapy for chronic pain take?
There is no set timeline for recovery from chronic pain, especially as there may be a range of physical and psychological causes for any individual’s discomfort, but most patients should expect to see a therapist for a number of weeks or months, typically spanning at least 12 sessions. Studies of pain reprocessing therapy found that many individuals’ experience of pain lessened in eight sessions over four weeks.
