I am a certified Imago Relationship Therapist and trained in various trauma treatments like EMDR .
Do you need help bringing Connection, Peace and Balance to your life or relationships? Many of us do because we run from one thing to another, without enough of ourselves to go around. We can struggle in our life or relationships and need to regain our balance or even create a new one. We get weighed down by anxiety, sadness or feeling we aren’t understood. We have trouble expressing our feelings and needs or understanding the important people in our lives. I can help you feel heard and understood and strengthen the connections in your life. My goal is to empower people and help them discover how to live a life that feels better.

I am also trained in EMDR .
My clients are often those struggling with anxiety, self-worth, and life transitions/adjustments. I also have particular specialities and experience with grief, substance addictions or those who are the loved one of a person with addictions, and trauma. When you read the word "trauma" it doesn't have to mean only abuse, car accidents, etc. There are various stressful life experiences that register as trauma, such as divorce, neglect/abandonment, health related issues and diagnoses, miscarriages, and many more. All that is needed from you is a desire to be present in the counseling space. The rest we walk through together.

I am also trained in a technique called EMDR which helps to process current and past experiences - even traumatic ones - deeply and rapidly.
I work with people who are experiencing pain, grief, anxiety, or confusion - who need help identifying what they want to change. I offer you a safe, supportive time and place. In this confidential space you can be listened to deeply, and you can learn how to listen to yourself. Together, we can nurture a healing connection, or reconnection, to your own wisdom and guidance. My ideal client is one who is open and motivated, who has a deep desire for self-awareness and self-change, and who perceives psychotherapy as part of a process of spiritual growth.

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.
