I enjoy working with clients who are looking to add some structure to the chaos and focus more on what matters now. People who have trauma that is hard to discuss, or is just confusing to make sense of, have a space with me. Most often, the clients I see are Women who have tried their best to balance health, family, work, communication, and self care but find that they are still drained and at a loss for what to do about their mental health concerns. This is usually due to unresolved trauma that can be hard to process alone and EMDR or talk therapy can help.
Trauma does not necessarily mean you experienced war or a major event. This can be repeated neglect of needs, emotional or otherwise, throughout the lifespan. EMDR therapy does not require talking in detail about the distressing issue or completing homework between sessions. EMDR allows the brain to naturally heal itself.
If you relate to any of the descriptions above, please reach out to me for a consultation call where we can figure out what next steps make the most sense for you. Give yourself the opportunity to feel freely then let go of what is weighing you down. I offer a variety of therapeutic modalities that cater to your unique story.

I draw from several prominent evidence based practices, but I believe it is important to look at the whole person before deciding on treatment as well; making an informed decision together on what is best for your healing. Some people find that EMDR is the best and only way to heal after trying everything, while others are trying therapy out for the first time and prefer an eclectic approach.
