Are you struggling with prolonged sadness or emptiness, feelings of being overwhelmed, feeling like you don't know how to cope, or are you unable to recognize or express your feelings? I can help. Do you want to be able to communicate with your spouse but just don't know how? I can help. Are you unhappy with the way you respond to situations? I can help. Do you have a hard time talking about something traumatic that happened to you and know you must deal with it somehow? I can help. Do you feel like you have a hard time gaining control over your emotions? I can help.
I am an EMDR therapist. I will help you to identify deeply ingrained beliefs/negative self-talk and the origin. Once processed, you will rethink, have a different perspective on, and feel differently about those events. You will respond from a logical perspective instead of an emotionally intense one. EMDR is more effective than talk therapy.
Change is hard and doesn't happen overnight, but it's possible. You need someone to believe in you until that someone IS you. Your situation is unique and no one belongs in a box. Only you know what you've been through and you are the expert on your circumstances. Together, we will increase awareness and create the treatment plan that works just for you.

I work with clients who struggle with depression, anxiety, or trauma related to their relationships or family. Initially, we will delve deeply into the issues at hand, and collaborate to create a plan for addressing them in a way that helps you get your life back. Most of my clients see a gradual lifting of symptoms within the first month. EMDR can expedite the process.

I like to use a collaborative approach with Emotion Focused, Cognitive Behavioral, EMDR, and Ego States (Internal Family systems) therapies. I use Feminist therapy when understanding societal norms and social constructs could be helpful. EMDR is useful for connecting with the root of your issues due to discovering the earliest memories of them. I provide Christian therapy upon request.
