I also work with adolescents and adults using EMDR, Art, Somatic, DBT and Internal Family Systems therapies.
Hi! My name is Cami Ereth. I adhere to the belief that each person inherently knows themselves best; I am here to walk alongside you to offer insight and skills. I view each person I meet with unconditional positive regard. I also consider myself an EMDR Therapist who offers healing through trauma insight. Believe it or not, there is joy (or at the least, less stress/pain) in the midst of all that! I love helping women (and their kids) work to find their worth, and their positive mental health; walking with them as they grow and get strong.

My approach to therapy is collaborative and relational. I'm truly interested in you as a person. My work is based on the assumption that all people have strengths and inner resources that can be accessed by asking creative questions that generate new possibilities. This enhances life choices, and develops stories that allow for new ways of being in the world. I draw on cognitive behavior therapy, social construction, narrative therapy, systems therapy, and mindfulness in counseling to support clients in meeting their goals. Somatic experiencing is another specialty area for me, working with the nervous system for healing.

EMDR therapy facilitates clearing the distorted messages, somatic responses, and emotional dysregulation that are a result of trauma or distress.
Are you struggling to function in the present or feeling paralyzed by events of the past? Are you experiencing the effects of debilitating grief and loss? Are you feeling stifled from reaching your full potential and connecting to how you are being led moment by moment? Whether your blocks are the result of PTSD, abuse, chronic pain or illness, or painful losses, there is hope for the future. It is possible to live a life freed from the symptoms that prevent you from engaging fully in life. Now you can live the life purpose for which you have been created. You can soar freed from the chains that bind.

Somatic experiencing supports working with trauma and identifying stuck survival responses (fight, flight, freeze) in order to help "reset" your nervous system.
If you are frequently feeling trapped and are so sick of the race you are not alone. If you have never been to therapy...Welcome! If you have been to therapy many times or have even been in therapy for years and you have all the “understanding” of what is wrong, but aren’t getting better, you also are not alone. Guess what? There is more to counseling than just re-telling your most painful memories. In fact, research is showing us that doing this is actually harmful and re-traumatizes people. You see, when you talk about trauma, your body has a physiological response, it actually can think it is back in that situation.

Do you feel exhausted? Overwhelmed? Have your relationships been challenged in the last few years? You’re doing the best you can, but it feels like it’s never enough. You focus on everyone around you and find it hard to set aside time for yourself. The stories we tell about ourselves impact the way we see the world. Often, these stories come with assumptions and attitudes that get in the way of living an authentic life.

I'd like to help you explore the root causes of your suffering and move toward lasting relief. Do you want a deeper understanding of the core issues underlying your relationship problems, depression, anxiety, self-esteem, substance use, or other issues? Are you curious about how early life experiences may be driving your current problems? Our early wounds are often obvious, like abuse, neglect, or abandonment. But some hurts are more subtle. Even when we have a so-called "happy childhood," we may still go through a lot of "less-than-nurturing" experiences that have a profound impact on our emotional lives as adults.

Choosing a therapist can be a daunting task. My goal at Epiphany Counseling is to make that choice easier by creating the empathy, nurturance and safety that allows you to freely explore the life situation that brings you to therapy. In that environment, I aim to help you experience a healing process that will restore hope, health and vitality to your life. I believe that almost all of us have the organic capacity to heal and fulfill our potential, but that past experiences have taught us dysfunctional ways to cope. The goal of therapy is to learn new ways of being so that we attain greater health, peace of mind and joy.

Life can be so challenging. Stress builds up and we get stuck in dysfunctional behavioral patterns and negative thought loops. Relationships are sometimes hard work, and we find ourselves going round & round with our partner, child or parent—feeling unheard, misunderstood, frustrated and disconnected. Often our reactions to present day stressors stem from early life experiences or unresolved trauma. Healing happens in the presence of someone who sees us and accepts us just as we are; and can help us process emotions like anxiety, despair, anger, shame, grief, and longing. This leads to greater self-understanding and self-compassion.
