EMDR Therapists in California
Additionally, I am trained in EMDR, a therapy especially useful for Post Traumatic Stress Syndrome or traumatic events.
I am trained in Family Therapy and although not always the case, therapy often moves faster when you are willing to include other family members as a part of therapy at some point. It helps me understand you in the broader context of the people that are important to you or have influence in your life. I have been married for 34 years and have three adult children so my personal experience often informs me, along with my training and the expertise I have gathered being a part of The Family Therapy Institute.

For those wanting to work through trauma, I use EMDR to heal symptoms of emotional distress.
If you have found your way to my profile, I imagine there is some part of you that wants to change. Do you experience symptoms of anxiety, trauma or OCD? Is anxiety or self-doubt keeping you from getting what you want out of life and your relationships? Using evidenced based treatments, including EMDR, CBT & ERP, I will support you in building awareness and insight into maladaptive patterns & behaviors that may be limiting you from creating meaningful change. My style is collaborative, seeing therapy as a life-enhancing participation in self-understanding, self-realization and self-compassion.

I use EMDR, parts work (IFS informed), Emotionally Focused Therapy for couples and individuals, the Safe and Sound Protocol, and I am now offering Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy.
Many of us don’t realize how negative events from our childhood affect the quality of our lives. You wake up most days feeling worthless, angry, fearful, anxious, insecure, and sad. These feelings negatively affect your behavior … you are unmotivated, impulsive, reactive, and take too many risks. These behaviors are negatively affecting every aspect of your life. Bills are piling up, you go from one job to the next, one relationship to the next, and may even be abusing drugs and alcohol. I treat symptoms of childhood developmental trauma/complex PTSD, (i.,e., anxiety, depression, and dissociative disorders).

If this sounds like you, I'm so glad you're here! I specialize in trauma and am trained in EMDR.
You've been through some really difficult and painful experiences in your life. There’s this unspoken pressure to “get over it" and "move on" because it's in the past. You say to yourself, “why can’t I just feel better already? What’s wrong with me?” You feel like no one cares about you or understands what you’re going through. Sometimes you can’t stop the tears from streaming down your face. You may even feel overwhelmed by anxiety - even to the point of having a panic attack. It can come out of nowhere and you don’t understand what brought it on or how to make yourself feel better. You just want to feel better.
