I utilize techniques such as EMDR, CBT, Hypnosis and other somatic techniques.
Seeking help for trauma is an act of immense courage. Just by considering therapy, you've already taken a significant first step, and that speaks volumes about your strength. Trauma can leave lasting scars, shaping how we see ourselves and the world around us. However, healing is not only possible, it's within reach. Through therapy, you can begin to process your experiences, build effective coping strategies, and regain your sense of safety and control. In my practice, I use a trauma-informed approach designed to provide a safe, non-judgmental environment where you can explore at your own pace.

I provide a personalized approach utilizing CBT and EMDR modalities which are really effective for these kinds of issues.
You appear to be doing well in life to others and yet internally you’re grappling with anxiety, self-doubt, or a persistent feeling of not being good enough. Perhaps trauma or a highly stressful event(s) still haunt you, despite your accomplishments. Your success does not have to come at the cost of your well-being. Imagine feeling more balanced, a sense of peace, being able to embrace your skills and achievements with assurance, recognizing and celebrating your true worth, and moving past trauma to experience emotional freedom, resilience, and genuine joy.

We are experiencing times where our identities, whether, personal, relational, racial, or even sexual are called into question and challenges our very way of being. Whether its work, family, or peer-related our stress can sometimes feel debilitating and we feel like we are on the cusp of giving up. In a world that lacks cultural-sensitivity and the ideal is to be self-reliant and independent, sometimes it’s difficult to acknowledge that we are in fact social beings that need help, especially when we are being impacted mental, physically, and emotionally…three aspects of the human experience that society says we need to be intact to thrive.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT) Therapists
How does cognitive behavioral therapy work?
Cognitive behavioral therapy works by exploring how your thoughts affect your emotions and experiences. CBT helps you identify distortions in your thinking. For example, you may tend to jump to the worst case scenario catastrophizing or think in extremes (all-or-nothing thinking). A therapist can teach you how to push back against those thoughts to ultimately change your feelings and behavior for the better. They can also provide coping skills to better deal with stressors and challenges.
When do I know to seek treatment with cognitive behavioral therapy?
It’s reasonable to consider cognitive behavioral therapy if you struggle to manage difficult emotions or behaviors to such an extent that you are not getting the most out of life on a day-to-day basis. If you want a shorter term, concrete, skills-based approach, CBT is a great option. (By contrast, other types of therapy may devote more time to exploring your past and its effects.) The decision to seek CBT also depends on the condition you’re treating; CBT is an effective treatment for anxiety, depression, trauma, and many other disorders.
How can I find a cognitive behavioral therapist for someone else?
To find a cognitive behavioral therapist for someone else, you may want to begin by discussing the person’s problem, researching cognitive behavioral therapy, and assessing whether the approach is the right fit. You could then reach out to a few cognitive behavioral therapists in this directory, explain the scenario, have a consultation with those available, and determine who could be a good match.
Why is CBT such a popular form of therapy?
CBT has become a popular form of therapy because it is effective and accessible. Robust research has demonstrated that CBT is an effective treatment for many mental health conditions. And CBT can be learned in relatively few sessions, which means that many people can engage in the process, afford it, and see results quickly. It involves learning concrete skills such as disputing unhelpful thoughts; these skills can also be taught and spread widely.
