In our sessions, I go beyond traditional talk therapy by integrating interactive and experiential techniques- such as biofeedback, parts work, brainspotting, and other cutting-edge interventions- to engage the mind and body.
The secret ingredient to healing relationship trauma is not what you think... Relationship trauma ruptures our sense of self, making us doubt our thoughts, question our actions, and dismiss our emotions. Slowly, we begin to betray ourselves. What you truly long for is to feel safe in your body, connected in your relationships, and inspired in your life. SELF-TRUST is the key to healing. As the only PhD Certified Trauma Counselor in the Shenandoah Valley, I will guide you in breaking these cycles, rebuilding self-trust, enriching safe relationship intimacy, and finally attaining Post-Traumatic Growth.

Biofeedback Therapists
Can biofeedback help with anxiety?
Biofeedback is often used to treat anxiety, including generalized anxiety disorder and post-traumatic stress disorder. Anecdotal evidence and some research studies have found that it can improve symptoms of these disorders, sometimes significantly; however, studies on biofeedback have typically been small and researchers have cautioned that many have significant limitations, such as limited follow-up or a lack of a control group.
Is biofeedback evidence-based?
There is some evidence that biofeedback can effectively treat certain conditions; for example, its efficacy in treating headaches and urinary incontinence is generally thought to be well-established. There is also promising, but less conclusive, evidence that it can aid in stroke recovery or help someone manage a mental health disorder such as anxiety, depression, or ADHD.
What is the difference between biofeedback and neurofeedback?
Neurofeedback is a type of biofeedback that measures brain activity specifically; it is typically used to treat psychological or neurodevelopmental concerns such as ADHD, depression, insomnia, or autism spectrum disorder. Biofeedback is a broader category that, in addition to neurofeedback, also includes electromyogram, heart rate variability, and thermal biofeedback, each of which measures a particular physiological function (muscle activity, heart rate, and skin temperature, respectively)
What are the limitations of biofeedback?
While biofeedback may be helpful for certain conditions, its efficacy is less assured for others, such as high blood pressure. People with certain health conditions such as heart arrhythmia may not be able to benefit from biofeedback because their condition may interfere with the machines’ readings. Biofeedback can also be time-consuming and costly, and may not be covered by health insurance.
