The combination of dynamic treatment and EMDR create a superb environment to heal.
Currently I am accepting new therapy clients and I provide a safe haven where one can open-up and explore their thoughts and feelings. Sometimes situations or emotions have caused stumbling blocks in one's life. Together we can understand the core of the problem and progress to optimum mental health. Through building a relationship between therapist and client, we can work through even the most difficult of mental health concerns. I have been in private licensed psychotherapy practice since 1991. My current specializations and certification, transgender, non binary, LBGTQ. and EMDR I offer in person and virtual sessions.

I am trained in both EMDR and Internal Family Systems (IFS) and will utilize both approaches during our sessions to help you work through the pain of your past and present.
The pain of addiction, anxiety, depression, PTSD, and low self-esteem arises from life experiences and toxic environments. These wounds remain when we are not provided with the support and help we need for our healing to take place. My integrative approach will examine how your family, gender, sexual orientation, race, and beliefs have impacted who you are today.

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.
