My focus is working with people who have been traumatized, molested, raped, bullied, have had domestic violence and complex trauma and PTDS. All of this work is done with advanced EMDR therapy work. I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker License in Arizona, New York , and Nevada and can take clients from each of these states.
EMDR therapy is an effective therapy for working through trauma and PTSD. I have been trained in EMDR in 1997 and have become Certified and a Consultant. I teach other clinicians how to do EMDR for the past 11 years.

Basically I employ EMDR therapy. We take a history of your disturbances and decide a treatment plan and then via EMDR take away the subjective units of disturbance and PTSD.
