Welcome! In this very moment you're choosing to be on your journey. My therapeutic philosophy is to facilitate and support your body's innate healing response through the applications of EMDR, (EMDRIA.ORG) and heart-centered therapies. EMDR in particular works to liberate clients from past trauma memories whether that be small "t" trauma or big 'T" trauma and to transform a person's subconscious beliefs thus "turning down the volume" on negative memories/negative beliefs and transforming those subconscious beliefs back into positive core beliefs so that you may become your highest aspect of yourself.
Specializing in PTSD/Anxiety/Depression, I work to facilitate your body's innate healing response through possible EMDR, CBT & Eclectic applications. These modalities may liberate you from past trauma memories releasing subconscious patterning that no longer serves you in your present life while supporting a strong therapeutic bond....It's time to let go!
Caring through compassion and empathy, I listen to understand your present difficulties. In speaking directly to your heart rather than just your mind, you start to shift and see things in a new light bringing forth an innate inner knowing that has always been inside of you since birth. If this resonates with you, I am offering a free 30 minute consult.
