Do you feel like you keep getting into the same kind of relationship? Do you have emotional reactions that are bigger than the situation? Our past experiences shape the negative messages we have about ourselves and the world. We can work to reveal and rewrite those messages so that you can move forward toward the life you want.
Using EMDR, Multicultural Feminist Theory, along with others, I aim to help clients expose the internalized messages that effect their perspectives of themselves and then free them from those expectations that are contributing to their problems.
I meet clients where they are at and collaborate with them on their journey toward healing. I am honored to witness each client’s experience. By deciding to participate in therapy you have taken a pivotal step toward a healthy relationship with yourself and others. I will support you in your process.
