As a Christian therapist, I have provided faith-integrated marriage and family therapy to individuals, couples, and families for nearly 30 years, but my current clinical focus is treating the impact of trauma using Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). You may be in a place of pain or emotional reactivity because of deep childhood injuries, exposure to combat, or the impact of secondary trauma from your work as a medical provider, a first responder, a pastor, or a missionary. I would be honored to hear your story and help you process through your experiences to a place of peacefulness and renewed hope.
EMDR Intensives and EMDR groups: EMDR helps you make better sense of disturbing past events and gain a positive sense of identity, security, and control in the present and for the future. As an Approved Consultant and a Trainer in EMDR, I have extensive experience using this evidence-based protocol. Contact me to see if an EMDR Intensive is right for you.
I deeply respect each client's spiritual beliefs and faith practices. I consider it a privilege to partner in your healing journey toward a place of restoration and hope compatible with your faith in God. If you are ready to move forward in a compassionate environment with a therapist who respects your pace for healing and growth, I would be honored to help.
