Whether you have specific trauma that needs to be resolved, have unwanted feelings, are experiencing overwhelming emotional reactions, are feeling stuck in life, or need help with performance issues (competitively and occupationally) this type of therapy is incredibly effective. My desire is to help people resolve the core of their problems and get back to living so I utilize EMDR in an intensive brief therapy format. This means sessions can be anywhere from 90 minutes to a couple hours long and therapy typically last anywhere from four to 12 weeks depending on severity

If you’re not sure if this type therapy is right for you, I offer a combination of approaches for getting started with EMDR. Join one of my eight week EMDR preparation and self-exploration groups, or attend two two-hour worksho…

I am passionate on working with people who have experienced trauma in their life.  I have worked with people dealing with trauma symptoms for 20 years, I work with ages 14 and beyond, doing EMDR with teens, adults and couples.  I was trained in EMDR in 2013 and am EMDRIA certified.  I am currently doing consultation with therapists who are seeking their own certification in EMDR.  I am excited work with HAP in a volunteer capacity too, in order to further develop my skills as a clinician and consultant and facilitator!  I would love to opportunity to work with you on your journey to certification.

Do you notice that past trauma or experiences seem to impact your life now in ways that create blocks or difficulty?

Are you struggling with a recent loss, anxiety, depression or relationship issues?

Psychotherapy is a powerful resource to help restore direction and balance as well as facilitating self-understanding and emotional healing. Exploring and understanding who you are and how you became who you are is part of achieving desired change and growth. I bring 30 years of experience, training, compassion and commitment to this collaborative and relational process. I use an integration of theories and approaches to best match your needs, including attachment, family systems and psychodynamic theories as well as mind/body and mindfulness approaches. I use EMDR within the context of an established therapeutic relationship and when it is assessed to be a beneficial part of therapy.
