Through playful interventions and EMDR, therapy can provide emotional relief, healing, improved relationships, and a greater understanding of yourself.
Trauma can impact anyone, from children to adults, leaving lasting effects on emotional and mental well-being. These effects permeate your mood, your relationships, your reactions to friends, coworkers and kids. You may find yourself feeling like each day is an uphill battle to get through. Same for kids! While kids do the best they can, upsetting events and changes show up in their big feelings and bigger behaviors. Whether you are a parent seeking help for your child or an adult ready to confront your own past, you deserve the support and space to move towards healing.

I have come to specialize in trauma with EMDR and IFS as primary treatment to help move negative messages from past traumas.
Are you struggling with not feeling good enough? Feeling too anxious to leave home or easily overwhelmed by daily life? Is your child struggling with maintaining behaviors at home or experienced significant trauma from home or school? If you're wanting to generally feel brighter so that you can live your best life now, then I can be there to help you heal. People often only think of trauma as a major disaster but it can be much less obvious like: negative self talk, negative sibling interactions, bad teachers, abusive relationships, parental overreactions and bullying. All leave scars and need some help to heal.

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.
