I enjoy working with those who are struggling to cope, adjust, or heal from anxiety, depression, trauma, personality, and/or family issues. I use a broad range of theories in practice to address client concerns and move them into wellness.
Remote EMDR therapy to help with healing trauma -relational, simple or developmental. Jungian principles help to address states of consciousness and trauma within the session. Dialectical Behavioral therapy (DBT) to promote mindfulness, self-regulation, coping, and interpersonal skill development.
I specialize in healing trauma and various disorders using the remote EMDR 8-step protocol-EMDRIA approved and Brainspotting -trained in phases 1 and 2.
