Feelings are messengers, guiding us toward a fuller, more vibrant life. They show us what matters, bring depth to our experiences, and spark growth. Yet unresolved trauma and a dysregulated nervous system can create barriers, making it difficult to process emotions, trust inner wisdom, or connect authentically.

I thrive with clients who understand they need to work for change, want to gain insight and value personal evolution. Sessions often lead to new insights, “aha” moments, and sometimes even a laugh or two. Humor doesn’t replace healing, but it sure can soften the edges of difficult moments.

Coping with life stressors, healing from painful experiences, and making personal changes can be extremely difficult. Having support during these kinds of transitions can aid you in resolving problems, finding peace, and achieving personal goals. My practice is focused on working with individuals who are coping with the effects of past trauma and/or painful life events, as well as, those coping with health issues that are effecting their well- being. Additionally, I enjoy working with other therapists pursuing therapy for their own self-care and personal growth.

Hi — I’m Elizabeth, a licensed therapist specializing in Dance/Movement Therapy (DMT) and EMDR for people who feel “stuck in their body,” overwhelmed by stress, or carrying emotional pain that hasn’t fully healed through talk therapy alone.
Do you feel overwhelmed or disconnected from your body, even when you “know” what you should be feeling? Are your emotions hard to put into words — or do they show up first as tension, anxiety, exhaustion, or shutdown? Are you navigating a major life transition, like new motherhood, and wondering why things feel harder than you expected? As a millennial therapist, my style is grounded, relational, and real. I value warmth, authenticity, and collaboration, and I believe therapy works best when you feel genuinely understood — not analyzed or rushed. I bring structure when it’s helpful and flexibility when it's needed.

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.
