Services and Specialities
Specializing in trauma recovery, anxiety relief, and personal growth, I provide evidence-based EMDR therapy tailored to your unique journey—empowering you to heal, thrive, and regain balance in life.
Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR)
EMDR is a widely researched and respected form of therapy to treat trauma. It works by activating parts of the brain that aren’t activated by just talking alone. For those who have tried talk therapy and not seen any results, EMDR might be a good option for you. People often seek EMDR after traumas like car accidents and assaults; however, it can also be helpful for less obvious traumas like grief, breakups, regret, a lack of self-esteem, or prolonged negativity from a partner or family member. EMDR allows us to clean out memories that get stuck in our brains.
Trauma-focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (FT-CBT)
This modality of therapy is similar to cognitive behavior therapy, except it combines behavioral techniques with trauma-specific strategies to concentrate on understanding and coping with traumatic experiences in children, teens, and families. This process aids in developing new coping skills, learning about how our minds process trauma, and also working to heal relationships in the family and re-frame narratives.
