I am also EMDRIA certified in EMDR (as of 7/22).
If you're struggling with anxiety, depression or mood issues, dissociation, and possibly some ADHD too, I'm here for you. If you're looking to work through trauma that is making it hard for you to breathe, to function, to know and be yourself, you've come to the right place. I often treat individuals who are recognizing how past ways of functioning just aren't working for them now and who want to make real and lasting change. Together we can work through the things that are bothering you and get you to a place where you can truly feel that your past is in your past and you have the skills and strength to keep moving forward.

I am working on becoming EMDR trained and learning how the past is related to the present to foster the long-lasting change that my clients seek.
Hi, I am Kristin, a licensed clinical social worker. Over the course of nine years, I have worked in a variety of settings with clients who have a range of concerns including depression, anxiety, relationship issues, and adjusting to life changes.

I specialize in EMDR Therapy and in the areas of trauma, PTSD, addiction, and anxiety disorders.
Hi! I'm Vlasta, an EMDR Therapist. My goal as a therapist is to help my clients free themselves from symptoms and behaviors that have been keeping them stuck, preventing them from living life on their own terms. As a former athlete and coach, I like to approach therapy with the same goal-oriented manner, working on developing and mastering skills. I understand what it is like to feel betrayed by your own body and mind, but it is important to know that it is never too late to regain control and mastery over both.

I specialize in Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing ( EMDR) which will help process past experiences.
I'm Hifza Ayaz, EMDR Therapist. Something that is common to every one of us are experiences of hardship followed by the emotional unraveling of our lives. In these moments, we are called to acknowledge the reality of our struggle, to honor our emotions through expression within the safe spaces they deserve, and to experience healing, strength and the confidence to meaningfully move forward. Therapy is a process of discovery wherein we may explore and discuss comparative self-criticism based on anxiety, depression, trauma, grief and major life changes. I believe that healing through meaning-making is possible through self-compassion.

I believe that everyone is capable of achieving goals that align with their values and what is important to them. Unfortunately we encounter many stressors in our day-to-day lives that pull us away from living a valued life. Things like stress relating to work, relationships, chronic pain/health conditions, past traumas, symptoms of mental health conditions, or any combination of these can act as barrier with living the life we want.
