Treatments includes Mindfulness, EMDR and SE - Somatic Experiencing along with a very caring & listening ear.
TRAUMA: An overwhelming experience that is too much, too fast. If too stressed or truly overwhelmed, our natural survival responses can be blocked. If unable to complete our body’s survival responses, trauma can occur and often symptoms emerge. We can feel stuck in the fear of flight, the anger of fight or the depression of freeze. As one who facilitates healing from emotional, spiritual, and physical pain and suffering, I am dedicated to working compassionately, non-judgmentally and collaboratively with you to become "unstuck" and find a greater sense of healing and wholeness.

I specialize in helping adults (age 18 and up) suffering from anxiety, panic attacks, and trauma using EMDR, Brainspotting, and other evidence based approaches.
My typical client feels drained at the end of each day due to anxiety or trauma. Trying to appear “normal” can be a full time job if your mind is constantly racing and you haven’t had a good night’s sleep in a long time. Maybe you are tired of overreacting to those around you or you think you just have to live with the trauma of past events.

Yeah, I do have extensive training & certifications ( EMDR, Safe and Sound Protocol, Family Systems Therapy, Equine Assisted Psychotherapy, Trauma Conscious Yoga, and Eating Disorders), but more importantly, I know how to help you make changes!.
You want to change behaviors, and change negative feelings, not just understand them. Building insight is important, but that's not enough. Most of us know why we do what we do, where that comes from (our old stuff). It is not enough to just understand behavior. There's something that keeps us stuck - whether its a cycle within ourselves, or a cycle with another person. We have got to change our old patterns by embodying a new truth for ourselves, from our head to our toes. That takes a ton of trust in something foreign and new.

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.
