EMDR Therapists in Northwest Colorado Springs, Colorado Springs, CO

Hi there! Thanks for stopping by! Do you ever think to yourself, "What's wrong with me?" or "How come I cannot snap out of it?" Let me tell you, there is nothing wrong with you and you simply cannot snap out of it. There are a lot of social stigmas when we have emotional struggles; we internalize these beliefs. Sometimes, we resist seeking treatment because it can be seen as a weakness because of underlying trauma or experience. This worsens over time whether you are depressed, anxious, fearful, frustrated, resentful, or angry. I believe many of us want to have understanding, support, empathy, and new coping methods.

I provide a non-judgmental environment for you to process, create a healthier self and find your voice. As an AASECT certified sex therapist, EMDR trained therapist, LPC Supervisor for Texas, and Certified Clinical Trauma Professional, I believe in growing continuously, learning in all the moments, and remembering your journey will be forever changing. I would be honored to work with you during the next part of your journey.

Are you motivated to understand how past experiences affect different areas of your life and relationships? Do you struggle with unresolved past trauma, chronic guilt, shame, or low self-esteem? I like assisting clients in processing traumatic experiences related to developmental and cultural trauma. I enjoy helping clients identify core beliefs, cognitive distortions, triggers, and attachment styles. Do you struggle with multicultural problems due to living in a different country/culture?

Are you feeling defeated by self-doubt? Anxious and over-burdened by the worries of tomorrow? Depressed because you just can't seem to make any long-lasting changes in your life? These symptoms may just be the "tip of the iceberg" and may be indicative of long-held belief systems that are manifesting after years of cultivation. Don't be discouraged. You're not alone. The human experience is riddled with challenges that can leave us feeling hopeless. We are not meant to do life alone and chances are you already know that because that's why you're here. Let's get started!

Is your life feeling out of control? Is anxiety or depression keeping you from living the life you want? Are you having trouble sleeping or concentrating? Are you troubled by thoughts of the past or fears for the future? Do you have a child who has anxiety or depression? I have specialties in trauma informed care, anxiety and panic disorders, depression; domestic violence victim therapy, and grief. I treat adults, teens and children. I love being a therapist and seeing clients develop change into a life worth living. I am currently offering telehealth therapy. (No disability claims)

Life can be hard. Don't struggle alone - I'm here to help! I’ve spent 15 years as a therapist working with young children, parents, families, and those unsure of their parenting future. My specialty is supporting parents (or potential future parents) to process their own childhood and family dynamics, to help them make the best decisions they can for their families. I love working with parents before, during, and after pregnancy, as well as using dyadic therapy for parent/child to process trauma together. Regardless of your parenting status, I can support you individually, or with your child.

Have you had adverse experiences in childhood or as an adult? Maybe you struggle to manage stress, or have difficulty with nightmares or sleep. Are you anxious, depressed, or fearful? Trauma takes on many forms: abuse, neglect, abandonment, divorce, assault, wartime experiences, accidents, or natural disasters, to name a few. I offer compassionate treatment for people who need assistance in overcoming the effects of disturbing events. I help clients improve their quality of life by developing coping skills, processing their thoughts, feelings and experiences, and empowering them to set healthy boundaries.

Hi, if you are someone who feels stuck, overwhelmed, or controlled by your own emotions or behavioral reactions, or perhaps trapped within the confines of meaning you've internalized about yourself, others and this world, I want to help you. I am a clinical psychologist who loves working with people from all walks of life. I embrace diversity and welcome anyone, regardless of race, spirituality or sexual/gender identity. I hope to create a genuine therapeutic relationship within which we can begin the process of deep healing where all parts of you (no matter how hidden) feel welcome and free to have a voice, exist & be witnessed.

Thank you for reaching out for help! I know how hard that first step can be. If you feel like this process is a little daunting, I am here to say, it is okay to feel that way, and I am here to make it all a little more manageable for you. Not only are you not alone, but you are also stronger than you know! Working through past traumas, current stressors, or future unknowns can seem overwhelming and exhausting before you even start. Just know, that your well-being in navigating all this big “stuff” is my number one priority.

Distressing symptoms in the present often are from situations in the past which when addressed people report feeling free in the present to become their authentic selves and accomplish their goals. I wanted to become better prepared and so studied beyond basic EMDR training to become a Certified EMDR Therapist with the International Association (EMDRIA). Primarily I work with veterans, adults, young adults and seniors that struggle with past unresolved trauma or distress, PTSD, over reactions, anger, depression, anxiety and fear, impulsivity, low self esteem and confidence, emotional mood swings, as well as aging issues.

I have over 20 years of clinical experience. I am a former military psychologist and military wife. I have experience with deployment issues, military sexual trauma, re-integration issues, special duty clearances, and other related stressors and trauma. I understand the sensitivity of special clearances. I have a significant amount of experience in psychological testing and neuropsychological screening, to help with accurate diagnosing and for treatment planning. I approach problems using a biopsychosocial model to address possible causes and the maintenance of those problems.

It is my goal to help you set achievable goals, to find inner strength, and to overcome daily hurdles while working towards internal improvement and serenity. I work with individuals, couples, and families, in a encouraging and supportive manner, to assist with internal and relational conflicts, as well as co- parenting matters, and divorce issues. By looking at things from a different perspective, and helping you to trust that you know what you need, I will help you to setting and achieving your goals.

Life can present with difficult, overwhelming, stressful, and traumatic circumstances we are unable to change or resolve individually. Sometimes we are able to quickly process and manage these circumstances and other times we become debilitated and stuck unable to continue functioning in healthy or effective ways. I am here to help you access your existing skills and develop new ones to overcome difficult times. I enjoy working with all age groups. I value relationships and strive to promote healthy, resilient, and adaptive living, while working toward personal growth and healing.

What if our journey in life isn't meant to be a journey of proving we are enough. What if our journey is one of knowing that we always were. What if who we are, exactly how we are has always been enough; enough to be loved, to be heard, to be seen, enough to be you. Traumatic experiences have a way of making us feeling that we are irreparably broken. We carry them with us in our mind, body, and soul as we continue through our lives searching for something to fill the emptiness they left behind. To the outside world we are who we've always been, yet inside we are showing up in our lives as someone we don't even recognize.

Life can be challenging. Whether you are struggling from issues from the past or adjusting to new circumstances, I want to be a support to help you overcome life's challenges. My goal is to provide a safe and trusting environment for you to talk, listen and offer support, feedback, and skills, and encourage you as you grow.

Struggles in life can sometimes lead to feelings of hopelessness and desperation. I have a passion to help people find hope and experience life in a fulfilling way.
