The human ability to change and grow is boundless. I customize treatment to each client's individual needs. I believe in using evidence based practices and I am always interested in expanding my knowledge base. Somatic experiencing and EMDR are excellent for seeing results. I have studied and worked with issues pertaining to trauma for over ten years. I am particularly interested in the body's innate capacity to heal and coping strategies to optimize functioning. I am comfortable treating a wide variety of presenting problems and working with a diverse client population. A warm, nurturing, creative environment is important to me.

Your mom just sent, “Think you can make the family trip?” Deep Creek this summer would be relaxing. Easy peasy decision right? But you're agonizing over if you should go or not. Your shoulders are as taut as a violin. Your head pounds from the spinning vortex of what to possibly say. Before you know it tears are tipping over the edge and down your cheek. Now they just won’t stop. Your breath is short and shallow as you shut the bathroom door with a click. Turning to the sink, you splash water on your face to snap yourself out of it, hoping it'll keep the nausea at bay. And yet you feel bone-weary tired simultaneously.

Finding the right therapist is difficult, isn't it? So hard to tell from reading the profile if she will be a good match for you. Perhaps you are asking yourself questions like "Do I really want to do this?", "Can I speak freely to a stranger?", "How do I know she will understand me and my issues?", or "How does therapy work?" It's understandable to have reservations. Call/e-mail me to set up a free, no obligation session and we can address your concerns. You'll be able to tell if you feel safe and heard.

Ezar Psychology, LLC is a haven for exhausted exemplars: people doing impactful, demanding work who feel stuck because hard work is never enough. The old roadmaps - perfectionism, high achievement, overtime, and doing it alone - are not working. When what you are experiencing goes beyond burnout and anxiety, the wellness modules, employee programs, coaching, and PTO are too little, too impersonal, and too late... It is time to chart a new course. Work with an experienced guide.

We all experience stress in our lives, but sometimes that stress is overwhelming and we have trouble coping. Cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) can be an incredibly effective tool to help manage anxiety, depression, and other stress-related difficulties. CBT focuses on the relationship between one's thoughts, feelings, and behaviors in everyday life. As a cognitive-behavioral therapist, my approach is collaborative, individualized, and based on scientific evidence.
