EMDR Therapists in Holly Springs, NC
I am trained in Mindfulness, CBT, DBT, EMDR, and body based strategies.
I am old enough to know that life does not always lend itself to simplistic answers. At various periods we all find ourselves in difficult circumstances that feel and often are overwhelming, sometimes related to life changing tragedies like death, divorce, new medical diagnosis like cancer, job loss, or catastrophic injury. In these situations your life changes in an instant. There is an avalanche of distressing emotions and life no longer feels solid or stable. As a therapist who has experienced some serious, life changing tragedies, I understand those feelings and am specifically trained in grief and trauma.

Specializing in anxiety, trauma, and parenting, I integrate EMDR, trauma-informed and somatic-based approaches along with CBT.
I often work with clients who are carrying the weight of childhood trauma, past experiences, feeling overwhelmed, or just not like themselves. As a therapist, I take a laid-back, authentic approach and really focus on the relationship we build. I show up as a real person (yes, sometimes that includes humor and the occasional swear word) because I don't think therapy should feel stiff or overly clinical. My goal is to create a space where you feel safe, understood, and able to be fully yourself as we work through the hard stuff together.

We also work with betrayal trauma and have a special niche for first responders and their family members as well as frontline workers.
Stress, depression, anxiety and trauma, are a part of everyday life, yet most of us avoid our feelings and negate the vast emotions that surface. We deny our emotions and lean into everyday routines and then wonder why we feel sad, angry, overwhelmed and exhausted. These reactions can negatively affect our interpersonal relationships on every level – intimate sexual relationships, friendships, parent child dynamics and work relationships. Life does not have to exist this way.

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.
