Oakwood, OH 45419 (Online Only)
I am trauma-informed and I utilize ego state work/parts, somatic, and attachment theory with EMDR to treat trauma and other distressing life experiences.
My treatment philosophy is based on our capacity to heal. My primary means of treatment is EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). EMDR reprocesses traumatic memories. Our brains use thought patterns to bring ideas, feelings and sensations to the forefront without discrimination. In instances of unresolved trauma, our ability to move forward in our lives is blocked, because thought patterns allow past trauma to continue to be replayed as if happening in the present. I collaborate with my clients via EMDR to reprocess trauma, allowing the brain to let natural healing occur.

I am a therapist who relies heavily on empathy, acceptance and understanding, along with framework from Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Person Centered Therapy, and Somatic Experiencing.
I connect best with individuals who have a lot of emotions, but have trouble communicating their emotional experiences to people in their lives. These individuals may feel misunderstood, unaccepted, different, or alone, but want desperately to feel understood and accepted.

My practice integrates talk therapy and somatic interventions.
My ideal clients are those struggling with trauma issues who are seeking ways to resolve these issues before they become enduring problems & patterns. I also enjoy working with those who are struggling with complex unresolved issues of trauma. I encourage my clients to take a holistic approach to growth. We are physical, mental, emotional & spiritual beings. The path forward is achieved by weaving all of these aspects of ourselves together into a coherent, unified whole. We can experience growth & healing. We then become a healthy influence on everyone & everything around us. This is my hope for anyone seeking therapy.

Human connection is vital to the therapeutic practice and so during therapy, I do my best to provide a safe space to explore emotions and challenges as well as providing a space that is LGBTQIA+ affirming, anti-racist and Disability Justice Oriented. While I work with clients who experience a spectrum of challenges such as anxiety, depression, and work stress, I specialize in helping clients heal from trauma using cognitive, existential, somatic and polyvagal approaches.

When someone experiences a traumatic event or life stressors, especially if it's one after another, it is quite understandable when their lives begin fall apart. No one can put themselves together on their own. My pleasure is in helping you through this difficult period and gain clarity for the future. I help individuals, couples and families achieve increased peace between themselves and within themselves. My true desire is to help you come to a point where you sense a strength and quality you didn't know existed before and experience less anxiety, clearheadedness and joy with your life and those around you.

A shift in your emotions and beliefs can shift your whole life. Feelings, such as depression, despair, anxiety and fear take you out of alignment with functional living and with creating what you want in your life. Our body is in part the product of our habits, beliefs, thoughts and feelings. If you put enough stress on yourself you will create disease. Disease can't live in a body/mind that is present and healthy emotionally. I support you to create body/mind/spirit health on a deep cellular level making the difference, between healing or not healing.

The most important relationship you have is the one with yourself. We all have a story. Telling your story to an attuned listener can be transformational. Healing is a collaborative endeavor. As you share your experiences and I listen, you can become more connected to yourself. I work best with clients looking to address symptoms of trauma, depression, anxiety, stress management, relationship issues, and parenting problems. I believe digging deep into ourselves and learning how our early relationships in life impact our present coping strategies and feelings can help us move towards the future we want.

Our lives can be difficult to work through at times especially if we are trying to cope with life's challenges. These stressors impact our mental health well-being if we use faulty coping techniques to work through them. Our feelings' can be overwhelming along with life changes which I am trained to assist clients' with. These challenges help us to grow through counseling techniques such as: trauma focused techniques, cognitive behavioral approaches, motivational approaches and solution-focused approaches.

I like to compare Couples Therapy / Marriage Counseling to the process of outsourcing a Physical Trainer. Instead of aimlessly lifting random weights as you wander the gym, a trainer will be able to specifically coach you, usually making it more effective in both time and cost. As a Couples Therapist, I take a similar approach. I will prioritize a sense of comfort and trust for you and your partner, while ensuring that the techniques I use are evidence based (they work!), and tailored specifically to your relationship needs.

Many of us are looking for solutions to problems, especially with mental health. We feel stuck. We are sick and tired of feeling sick and tired. All of this makes it hard to not only reach our life goals but also to accomplish the everyday tasks. We believe that we need to be “fixed.” But you are not broken like a clock. Instead of needing to be fixed, I can offer you a chance to heal.

Somatic Therapists
How does somatic therapy work?
Somatic therapy is a form of treatment that focuses on how the body and mind are interconnected. In this approach, physical symptoms are addressed because they may in fact signal emotional distress. Somatic therapists combine mindfulness, talk therapy, breathwork, yoga, dance, and physical manipulations of the body to help patients become more attuned to what their body is telling them.
Is EMDR a somatic therapy?
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a form of somatic therapy, as it incorporates mental and physical principles. EMDR involves remembering a traumatic experience while allowing one’s eyes to track a side-to-side visual stimulus from a therapist. This lateral eye movement is believed to diminish the painful power of the memory so that it can be discussed with a therapist.
Is somatic therapy evidence-based?
Somatic therapy has been researched and studied, and some forms of somatic therapy are found to be effective in treating a wide range of conditions. Because somatic therapy encompasses many techniques, some, such as EMDR and meditation, have been studied more than others.
What is somatic trauma therapy?
Somatic trauma therapy is based on the idea that when people experience trauma, they can become stuck in the “freeze” part of a “fight, flight, or freeze” response. In this state, trauma can manifest itself both mentally and physically—through tension in the muscles, anxiety, and stress. Popular forms of somatic trauma therapy include EMDR, sensorimotor therapy, and somatic experiencing.
