You look around and see other people easily dealing with the stress in their life. “What’s wrong with me?” You think to yourself. “Why can’t I manage things anymore?”

You feel like anxiety and tension are piling up. You can’t handle one more of life’s curveballs.

Anxiety, stress, and depression are eating you up on the inside. You’re agitated with your family. You’re not sleeping. Little things that shouldn’t bother you, really seem to set you off. In many ways, you’re feeling out of control.

You have a niggling notion that what you’re feeling now is an accumulation of all the past losses, tragedies, or traumas. You muscled your way through those difficult times, but now you just can’t seem to shake it.

As much as you’re trying to push things away, it’s not working.  

The heart palpitations, shortness of breath, and heaviness in the chest are hard enough to deal with, but now you’re worried about how this stress is impacting your health.

You’re ready for some relief.

Through our work together, you will find balance again. You’ll feel in control of your reactions and confident in yourself. You will be free of the negativity that has been holding you back.

You’re not alone. We will walk the path together toward healing and wholeness.

I became an EMDR therapist because I have seen EMDR change so many lives! EMDR Therapy helps to take the sting out of difficult past events and frees our system up to learn and grow. This process helps us to stop preparing for the worst and allows us to tap into our wisdom and intuition.

At the beginning of therapy, we will spend time uncovering what is happening for you, and together, we will understand what needs to change internally and externally for you to graduate from therapy.

After we create a roadmap for how we’re going to reach your goals, we’ll develop a personalized toolkit for managing stress so you feel confident that you can self-soothe and regulate your emotions.

Next, we get a sense of what from the past is unresolved and make a plan for working through those past events.

Helping my clients move from doubt and overwhelm to peace and clarity is one of my greatest joys as a therapist!

Because prolonged stress in the body can cause chronic health conditions. I have taken a special interest in helping people cope with and navigate chronic health issues. One of the benefits of EMDR Therapy is helping the body process the accumulation of stress and anxiety. Our work together can help relieve the body of the automatic stress response, so you can finally relax.
