EMDR Therapists in Colorado Springs, CO

Have you ever uttered the words "I am sick and tired of being sick and tired" or felt like even when you are happy, that you are just waiting for the other shoe to fall? Do you have thoughts that no matter what you do, nothing seems to change and you find yourself in the same toxic relationships over and over again? Maybe you have even had thoughts that it's all too much and there never seems to be that proverbial light at the end of the tunnel that everybody keeps talking about. Yet something keeps you going, some small voice inside you knows you want more, knows you are capable of more.

Just as the body has the ability to heal physically, the mind can also heal from psychological trauma.

Life can be filled with so many challenges that are unexpected: becoming a parent, experiencing grief or trauma, or having had struggles as a child with your parents. When working with clients, I use the skills and knowledge that I have honed over the last 20 years which enables me to provide a vast toolbox to support the health and wellness of each person.

I specialize in working with anxiety, depression and other aftereffects of trauma and abuse (such as PTSD, uncontrolled anger or addiction). I use powerful somatic methods (including EMDR) to help you work through/resolve thoughts, emotions and physical reactions. I particularly welcome military veterans, first responders, and those abused as children. Many people suffering from ongoing effects of trauma just want to know how to cope. But often more is available than just coping, sometimes much more. Healing is possible. Your body (including your mind) is always trying to heal. I would be honored to participate in this with you.

It takes courage to start your healing and growing journey. I see my role as a partner with my client's. Together we will find strategies to enhance your life and build your resiliency; developing skills to have more meaningful relationships and finding a path to your goals. Simultaneously we will explore any emotional barriers, past or present, that may have interfered with your journey. This philosophy fits for my work with adults, children and families. Together we will find new ways to navigate life with new skills and bravery.
