Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing
EMDR is an evidence based modality that helps clients to more effectively process trauma and other distressing life experiences such as anxiety and depression. EMDR utilizes bilateral stimulation to help get things “unstuck” in your brain. It is a somatic, and neurobiological approach that focuses on the mind-body connection for healing. EMDR consists of multiple phases that we will incorporate at your own pace based on your clinical needs and comfort! Learn more about EMDR here.

Each one of us are composed of different parts. These parts make up who we are. At times, you may notice yourself saying phrases such as “there’s a part of me…”, highlighting a complex inner world. As we learn to understand, embrace, honor, and challenge these parts we develop a stronger sense of security and authenticity.

A client-centered, or person-centered, approach prioritizes a genuine therapeutic relationship. As a therapist, I aim to also offer unconditional positive regard and true empathy. No matter what you come to session with, I see you as a worthy human being, capable of growth.
