You've experienced something terrible in your life, and you cannot stop thinking about it. You can't sleep, and barely function throughout the day. Or maybe you function, but you're unhappy, stressed and anxious. Maybe you cover the pain with drugs, sex or alcohol. Trauma affects everyone- and everyone reacts in their own way. You want to be able to look forward to your day, your life and your relationships. If you've been through sexual trauma, infidelity, relational issues or have low self esteem, EMDR can help.

Are you feeling depressed, unsure you can come out of this sadness. Do you avoid going places, seeing friends and acquaintances and relatives? Are you becoming weaker, physically tired, due to lack of movement? Or, has life become so intense that your stress levels are to high to withstand. Is you anxiety level high, and you are having panic attacks> Do you feel that the rest of the world has left you behind, and you don't know how you can possibly catch up? Are you lonely, so much that alcohol or drug use seems the only way to cope. These are areas that I am very knowledgeable about and have much life experience.

In 2009, Shannon Enright-Smith identified a need for a supportive environment where she and other behavioral health professionals could work together to advance the thinking in the emerging field of integrated behavioral health. This was the start of the Life Change Institute where behavioral health professionals collaborate to create positive outcomes for the individuals, couples and families they serve. We believe in restoring our clients to their optimum state of health and wellness and in establishing personal skills and practices to prevent future ill health and trauma.

In my 15 years of practice, I have found, that at my core I am a client centered therapist. This means that I believe that the process of therapy is driven by the client and what their needs are in the present moment. That said, I have also discovered that using cognitive behavioral techniques to help sort through unhelpful thoughts that might be driving anxiety or depression is an important part of the process, as is teaching mindfulness techniques to help calm the body and the brain.
