I am experienced in helping clients recapture the person they previously were. Many clients say to me, "I just want to go back to being the person I used to be", and that's exactly what we focus on. Clients also often say to me, "I just don't know what to do or what I want", and we work together until we figure out how to alleviate their confusion. We achieve this in various ways, most often through exploration of the presenting issues, examination of past relationships and significant experiences as well as decision-making and behavioral patterns.

As an EMDR therapist, I like to get to the root of things.
You have tried SO hard to change things yourself, but you just feel stuck in the same patterns. Same struggles in relationships, difficulty trusting yourself and others, over-reacting to the smallest things, and feeling like you can never let your guard down. You constantly wonder what is wrong with you. For new parents, maybe you’re struggling to bridge the gap between what you expected things to be and what they actually are. Facing fertility struggles, pregnancy complications, a birth that looks nothing like you imagined. You find yourself thinking, it shouldn’t be like this. Wherever you are, you are not alone.

I am trained in EMDR which is a highly effective modality for treating trauma and learning to live in the present moment.
Are you looking for somebody to talk to about challenging transitions, life events or relationships? If anxiety, stress or self doubt are holding you back, there is hope. Therapy is a safe place for you to connect deeply with yourself from a place of compassion. Often the emotional reactions that we struggle with in adulthood were helpful and served a purpose during our earlier years. In therapy you can learn to connect with every part of yourself and foster a sense of safety within your mind, body and heart. If you are ready to feel more present and grounded in your daily life, therapy can help.

My primary orientation is psychodynamic, and I am certified in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing therapy (EMDR) and trained in cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT).
My specialty is trauma, with the understanding that trauma is often not just one major event, but also the cumulative effect of both severe and more subtle traumas over a lifetime, ranging from emotional deprivation, bullying, verbal abuse to rejections and perceived failures. Since I believe that trauma contributes to most issues, I work with a broad range of patients, including those struggling with interpersonal problems, having difficulty reaching personal and professional goals, or lacking confidence and positive self-image. I also work with patients experiencing mental illness, ranging from depression to psychotic disorders.

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.
