Let's work together! In our sessions, we will combine proven interventions like Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Sound Healing, EMDR, Mindfulness and Meditation.
I’d love to talk to you about what meaningful and long lasting fulfillment would look like. To explore this, let's clarify your values and talk about holistic health: mind, body and spirit. Let's also explore barriers, internal and external, to transformation and growth. When processed and integrated, I believe that challenge can forge greater resiliency and awareness of self-limiting beliefs or behaviors that may be in getting in the way of what you really want: a deeper sense of connection and contentment, more loving relationships, fulfillment and joy. I am person-centered in my approach and happy to tailor our work to you.

Through emotion-focused and mindfulness based approaches, along with the integration of EMDR, I provide space for clients to take a deep breath, untangle their stories, and come back to their inner sense of knowing and safety.
You are probably here because there is part of you that knows you were made for deeper connections, more freedom and laughter, and a greater sense of purpose and fullness of life. But life is hard. And somewhere along the way we often begin relating to ourselves and others from a place of fear and woundedness. We numb ourselves or make ourselves small to hide the parts that we fear will be rejected. We get stuck in patterns of feeling unlovable, unworthy, and disconnect from joy.

EMDR Therapists

Who is EMDR for?

EMDR was initially developed as a treatment for individuals with Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), for whom memories of a deeply distressing experience can be inadvertently triggered by random everyday events. The procedure has since been applied in the treatment of many other conditions. For example, it is used by some therapists to treat anxiety disorders including panic and phobias, depression, dissociative disorders, eating disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorders, and some personality disorders. It is suitable for adolescents and adults.

Why do people need EMDR?

People need EMDR as a way to manage distressing memories that in some way hamper the ability to function in the present. The procedure is believed to target the way memories are stored in the brain. Evidence indicates that past disturbing experiences cause ongoing distress because they were not adequately processed, and when such memories are triggered in the present, they are accompanied by all the emotions, thoughts, and physical sensations as the initial experience.

What problems does EMDR treat?

First and foremost, EMDR is intended as a treatment for PTSD, to defuse distressing memories that intrude on and impair everyday functioning. It is also often used to help those who are subject to panic attacks, phobias, and other forms of anxiety. In addition, EMDR has been used to treat individuals with depression, eating disorders, and personality disorders.

What happens in EMDR therapy?

First the therapist takes an individual’s history, and then the therapist and client decide which distressing experience(s) will be the target(s) of the exercise, delivered via a side-to-side visual stimulus requiring lateral eye movements. The client will be asked to activate thoughts, feelings, and any body sensations related to the troubling experience. The eye movements are said to reduce the emotional charge of the memory, so that the experience can then be safely discussed with the therapist and digested, minimizing its ability to trigger anxiety.
