Most clients come to me seeking EMDR therapy, which I am fully trained to provide.
My approach as a therapist is direct and deeply inquisitive. I ask a lot of
questions because I am genuinely invested in making sense of your story,
helping you identify patterns, and maybe helping you think about things in
a way that you haven’t considered before. I’m going to be real with you in
the most authentically loving way, because I’m on your team and want
nothing but the best for you.
My favorite population to work with is teenagers. As a mom to three teenagers, I've learned to speak the language. I also love working with adults with ADHD, OCD/specific phobias, or in need of processing trauma.

Flash and EMDR let your body release what happened without reliving it.
You lived in a narcissistic relationship for far too long. You’re doing your best not to fixate on all that you were told you did wrong – all the times you were berated, laughed at, and put down in front of friends and family. Your phone sits face-down. Picking it up means another argument to no where. Putting it down means another hour of questioning if you were the problem all along. You swing from defiant independence to insecure co-dependence. You used to know what you liked. Now you can't remember if you actually liked any of it, or just learned to. Facing an uncertain future is terrifying and paralyzing.

My training in EMDR can help those suffering from trauma, PTSD, anxiety and depression.
Connection matters! Whether you are dealing with adjustments in life, marriage struggles, career struggles, anxiety, depression, overwhelming life stress, or childhood trauma; navigating these difficulties can feel very lonely. My strengths are in helping clients heal from the hurt of their past, find connection and healing in marriage even if there have been great hurts, and assist individuals who feel trapped in destructive relationships and trapped in negative self-belief. My hope is that my clients discover true connection, in place of their pain or struggle, that allows them to fully embrace their uniqueness.

Among the types of therapy I offer I am EMDR-trained, and other specialty therapies include Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) & Mindfulness Based Cognitive Therapy (MBCT).
You’re overwhelmed, and the chaos and stress make you question “can life really get any better?” Heartbreak has brought hard feelings you don’t know what to do with. You might even say “I don’t feel like myself” and wonder if something is wrong with you. Your past causes anxiety that you’ve carried for years. You may feel alone and like a burden on others. If this is you, you are not alone.

I also offer EMDR intensives for clients who are a good fit for focused, extended trauma work.
My jam is working with people who, because of complex trauma and emotional wounds, don't feel real or complete all the time. They're trying their best but can't seem to figure things out. Or, they check all the boxes, work harder than everyone around them, and still feel hollow.
I work with those who feel chronic emptiness, disconnect from others and self, incomplete in their identity, and burned out from extended overfunctioning. I use a combination of neurobiological engineering and sorcery (just kidding on the sorcery bit). If you need that, my contact information is available.

I am a Trauma Specialist trained in EMDR, Hypnotherapy, QHHT, IFS, and Trauma Therapy and specialize in PTSD, ADHD, anxiety and depression with over 15 years of experience assisting clients to a state of well-being, growth, and wholeness.
Latest research has shown that we "stuck" in our core beliefs that have been ingrained in us since childhood. We've all tried to "think" our way out of anxiety or depression and have failed. EMDR bypasses the "thinking" part of the brain and works directly on the "feeling" part to integrate healthy beliefs about one's self and bring about peace.

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.
