By using EMDR, Hypnosis, Mindfulness, CBT, and some DBT I strive to get you back on track quickly.
Taking Video clients! Do you feel stuck, anxious and depressed and wonder what is wrong with you? Personal crisis, work burnout, the loss of a loved one, and stressful situations like those of 2020 make life even harder. Just deciding to change, talking yourself through it or “pulling yourself up by the bootstraps” doesn't always work. Sometimes your pain is deep and rooted in the past. Maybe it’s not clear to you and held in your subconscious. That is often a normal outcome when we don’t get the support we need in our time of struggle. I am here to help and look forward to meeting you

I support clients' journeys by using an eclectic and holistic approach of EMDR therapy, attachment focused therapy, and somatic therapies.
My focus is providing a dedicated, safe space for those seeking support through life transitions. Transitions, whether they are welcomed or unexpected, are opportunities for reflection, for discovering a new authentic sense of self, and for challenging internal belief systems that often make change feel overwhelming or unbearable. My primary goal is to help clients find a renewed sense of purpose, balance, energy, and self-confidence.

I integrate Emotion-Focused Therapy, ACT, Trauma-Informed Care, EMDR as well as the developmental lens of Attachment-Based Therapy within our sessions.
Being an overthinker myself, I have learned the power of implicit knowing and through mindfulness practices holding space to listen to all parts of self. Validating the unique human experience of each of my clients with warmth and acceptance is priority in the work I do. Feeling truly seen, heard, and understood without judgement builds connections with self and others. I enjoy “being a fellow traveler” with my clients as they find their own voice and empowerment to live the life that aligns best for them. "Awareness is like the sun. When it shines on things, they are transformed." -Thich Nhat Hanh

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.
