EMDR Intensives can help you feel relief faster than traditional therapy. Are you a healthcare professional or first responder suffering from repeated negative thoughts, intrusive images, flashbacks, or sleepless nights due to work-related stress? The cumulative impact of high-pressure situations, trauma exposure, and the emotional demands of your role can lead to symptoms of post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) and work-related stress. You dedicate yourself to the well-being of others, often at the expense of your own mental health. EMDR therapy and EMDR Intensives offer solutions to help you heal and reclaim your life.

Are you seeking a space to be heard? To express without fear of judgment? A neutral party to listen and reflect? In my experience, listening is a skill that is not easily mastered. I offer the kind of listening your friends and your family cannot provide, as they may be too close to you and too close to the situation to be able to hear and see things clearly. Counseling provides a space for you to be seen, and to learn to embrace your unique perception. You need to be heard to understand how you think, and to be able to see how you are perceived by others. This will help you find harmony in your relationships.
