Its hard to be fully here in the present when the past continues to interfere. Memories, dreams, flashbacks, rattling your sense of safety even though you know its over.  When seemingly innocent interactions start to feel like they are landmines for triggers to difficult memories, making what should feel like normal daily tasks fill you with dread, taking away any possibility to feel the joy that others seem to get with ease.  

​

The past is over.  Your nervous system doesn't know that yet.  I am here to help you transform.    

​

I use EMDR, Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing therapy, a modality and approach to traumatic events which helps rewire stuck patterns in the brain to allow the past to stay in the past, and also tap into the brain's natural propensity for healing.  Many clients report some initial relief within a few sessions, with greater impacts over several sessions. 

 

Imagine what it would be like to be able to feel fully present, to feel more like you, to feel joy, to feel SAFE.

​​

What separates EMDR from other modalities is that there is no need to talk through each traumatic experience.  Its a multi-phase model where we spend time mapping out what happened in the past, what's contributing to the present triggers, and also preparing for the future.  We spend time building resources for helping you manage triggers, while also reducing intensity of the memories. 

 

The best part of EMDR, in my opinion, is that you learn to tap into your own inner wisdom.  You'll learn in your own words and internal sensing, that the past is over, that you are safe, and create new beliefs about yourself and the world.  My clients often come out of therapy with statements like: 

• I am safe

• I am in control

• I deserve good things

 

We can't change what happened. But we can change how you feel about it.
