I am trained in EMDR and use it with many clients on a number of symptoms; it is a method of healing trauma through the reforging of disturbing memories into powerful resources.
If you’re looking for a place to heal, grow, and explore what you want your future to hold, therapy can be a powerful way to reach your goals. Starting such an odyssey of self-discovery takes courage, but it is well worth the effort to make your hopes become realized. I work with a range of client issues, including depression, anxiety, OCD, PTSD, grief, ADHD, DID, relationship issues and life transitions.

I am a trained grief and certified EMDR trauma treatment psychotherapist.
In the past thirty years of practice, I've come to deeply understand that all therapy is, in a sense, grief therapy. I began working as a volunteer with Hospice, and although I am trained and practiced in trauma and developmental techniques, I specialize my work with grief and loss. I help my clients walk through the profoundly life-changing territory of losses that can seem impossible to accept and heal from. Because we live in a culture that makes little room for it, I create a place and time for people to unpack their losses and, with time, grow into acceptance. Please let me know if I can help.

We will utilize inner child healing (and other parts too!), somatic awareness, EMDR, and your spirituality to regulate your nervous system, process and release stored trauma, and connect you to your intuition so you can cultivate a sense of self-acceptance.
You’re self aware, but the intensity of your emotions often seems to win out. You are committed to growth and deepening your self-knowledge but find yourself either stuck in the depths of your emotions or unable to connect with them at all. You desire secure relationships, but instead experience anxiety or detachment and can’t seem to shake feelings of shame. Now, you feel ready to process the more hidden aspects of yourself that you had to push aside just to get by. You want to increase your capacity for connection to yourself and to others, so you can find more safety in your body, your relationships, and in the world.

I use EMDR, IFS and somatic therapy to help you find long-lasting results and believe that trauma does not have to be in the driver’s seat of your life.
You often find yourself wondering, “what will it take for me to feel normal?” It feels like you’ve tried everything, including therapy, but you can’t seem to “get it together” like everyone else and feel constantly on edge. Being abandoned by your partner or friends is constantly on your mind. You might know in your head that you don’t need to be anxious about the things that keep you up at night, but your body tells a different story with the knots in your stomach and tightness in your chest. All of this leads you to feel like it’s impossible to break out of old patterns. You’re ready to dive in deep and find long-lasting relief.

Horses have an innate sense of the suffering of their herd. They are hyper-attuned to the needs of others around them. When I work with my horses they are able to pick up on the underlying needs and desires of my clients. They know when you are feeling angry, isolated, or restless. The horses are able to attune to your emotions while I help you to put those feelings into words and do the necessary work to solve life's challenges. Together, we will embark on a journey of self-discovery.

Has it felt like your life is driven by what you don’t want to feel instead of what’s meaningful to you? Trauma isn’t just the events that happened to you, but the impact that they have inside you. Regardless of how long ago they were, past painful experiences can lay the foundation for how you view yourself and the world. This can leave you feeling like you’re responding based on old patterns, even if they get in the way of who you are today. We are all informed by our past. However, we are also more than the worst things that have happened to us.

Anxiety, trauma, and depression can make us feel totally out of control, like being at war with ourselves. Maybe you feel like you’re keeping it together on the outside but on the inside you feel completely overwhelmed. Or maybe you feel numb, like you’ve lost the motivation to do anything. Perhaps you’re a notorious people pleaser who feels guilty saying “no” and now you’re stretched too thin. You might not even remember what it’s like to be fully present because you’re always overthinking and jumping to conclusions, but you know one thing is for sure: something needs to change. That’s where I come in.

Carol Burnett once said, "Only I can change my life. No one can change it for me." I firmly believe that each of us has the capability to make changes in our lives to be a better, happier, and more capable version of ourselves. Therapy is about working together to find this version - whether it be changing one's thoughts, beliefs, behaviors, or ideas to overcome issues that might involve trauma, fractured relationships or negative life experiences.

EMDR Therapists
Who is EMDR for?
EMDR was initially developed as a treatment for individuals with Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), for whom memories of a deeply distressing experience can be inadvertently triggered by random everyday events. The procedure has since been applied in the treatment of many other conditions. For example, it is used by some therapists to treat anxiety disorders including panic and phobias, depression, dissociative disorders, eating disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorders, and some personality disorders. It is suitable for adolescents and adults.
Why do people need EMDR?
People need EMDR as a way to manage distressing memories that in some way hamper the ability to function in the present. The procedure is believed to target the way memories are stored in the brain. Evidence indicates that past disturbing experiences cause ongoing distress because they were not adequately processed, and when such memories are triggered in the present, they are accompanied by all the emotions, thoughts, and physical sensations as the initial experience.
What problems does EMDR treat?
First and foremost, EMDR is intended as a treatment for PTSD, to defuse distressing memories that intrude on and impair everyday functioning. It is also often used to help those who are subject to panic attacks, phobias, and other forms of anxiety. In addition, EMDR has been used to treat individuals with depression, eating disorders, and personality disorders.
What happens in EMDR therapy?
First the therapist takes an individual’s history, and then the therapist and client decide which distressing experience(s) will be the target(s) of the exercise, delivered via a side-to-side visual stimulus requiring lateral eye movements. The client will be asked to activate thoughts, feelings, and any body sensations related to the troubling experience. The eye movements are said to reduce the emotional charge of the memory, so that the experience can then be safely discussed with the therapist and digested, minimizing its ability to trigger anxiety.
