Feeling depressed? Anxious? Dissatisfied? I'm glad you're here, seeking therapy as a support! My goal is to provide hope and direction as we work to heal whatever is keeping you from the life you want. I believe in a whole-person approach that soothes the symptoms at present, explores the origins of issues in your past, and instills hope and motivation for your future. I have extensive experience working with clients struggling with the impact of trauma and abuse, as well as anxiety and depression.
I love partnering with my clients, using whatever methods best suit their needs. I have special training in EMDR (Eye-Movement Desensitization & Reprocessing), an effective treatment for trauma, long term depression, PTSD & more. All methods I use tend to have one thing in common: address the root of the problem, not just the surface symptoms.
Beginning therapy can be scary, but rest assured, I am ready and willing to help you realize positive change in your life. Reach out today! I’m proud of you already for taking the first step.
Take the first step to help. Call or Emily Rickard now - (951) 467-4470
