Family conflict can make day-to-day responsibilities feel like emotional quicksand- impossible to trudge through. Do you feel stuck in the eye of the hurricane of trauma and relationship conflict and feel as if there’s no way out? Maybe you’re sick of the stuffy “how does that feel?”-blank-stare-therapist sitting across from you while your life falls to pieces. Hi! I'm Irene. I take an eclectic approach with my clients, one grounded in humor, the body-brain connection and authenticity. I come with a wealth of knowledge and life experience that I tap into while treating the challenges my clients are facing every day.
I identify as a flow-enthusiast, engaging in activities like hula hooping, fire hooping, and fire eating. Don’t fret- I may not ask you to do those things- but what I will do, is bring a similar energy to my practice that will help you unlock your potential by using therapeutic movement. I also use EMDR and Polyvagal modalities to help my clients heal.
People say I'm quirky, fun and outside of the box. My clients report feeling liberated and seen after talking with me- and you know, approaching your treatment from an unconventional perspective, one that’s not only evidence based, is not something you can get just anywhere! Reach out today, I'd love to meet you!

EMDR is amazing for helping clients process tough experiences without getting stuck in the overwhelm. I love it because it's structured, efficient, and clients often notice real progress quickly. You can expect to explore your feelings in a safe way, using guided techniques to reprocess memories, and gain a sense of calm and empowerment in your life!
