About me

It can seem difficult to believe we can overcome our challenges. We can feel like an instance, situation or moment defines us. It is possible to break free from this thinking. For several years I have been working with clients to address self-esteem, depression, anxiety, addictions, relationships, job problems and loss. It is rewarding for me to provide hope that distress in these areas can be alleviated. My passion is assisting clients to reach their goals. In my practice I have noticed EMDR reduce symptoms. EMDR is not only used for trauma, it can be used for dysfunctionally stored information. When using EMDR (tapping) I find change occurs rapidly and my clients are hopeful about moving forward. Clients are able to effectively manage symptoms and make decisions that benefit themselves and those they love. Through my study of neuroscience, I’ve learned the nervous system can help heal clients. Considering the mind, brain, and body are all connected and influence one another, powerful change can occur during the therapeutic process. The brain is developed in a way with the potential for change in various ways. I use interventions associated with the ability to change the brain, such that can alter brain pathways and networks to help treat trauma, anxiety, depression, and addiction. These skills will promote healthy recovery in the brains for those experiencing trauma, anxiety, addiction, and depression. Each session is an opportunity to change and grow. It is unfortunate that we experience difficulties which weigh down our ability to advance in life. It is my desire to work with my clients so they can move past their obstacles. Having personally experienced road blocks of my own, I am empathetic to the struggle of moving past adversity. Let's work together at achieving your goals.

In our first session together, here's what you can expect

In our initial session, my primary aim is to establish a connection where I can learn about you and the goals you're striving towards. This first meeting is an opportunity for us to begin building our therapeutic relationship, where I will introduce the various therapeutic interventions that may be part of our journey together. I will outline the steps of our prospective path forward, ensuring that you have a clear understanding of how our sessions will be structured to support your progress. Furthermore, I believe in equipping you with practical coping skills from the outset. These skills are not just theoretical concepts; they are practical tools that you can immediately apply to your daily life, offering support between our sessions. By the end of our first meeting, you can expect to have a sense of direction and a toolkit of strategies to help navigate the challenges ahead.

My treatment methods

EMDR

In my practice, I have found Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) to be an exceptionally effective therapeutic intervention. It stands out for its efficiency in helping clients process and heal from trauma. My experience has shown that EMDR can often achieve significant breakthroughs in fewer sessions than some traditional therapies, as it directly targets the way traumatic memories are stored in the brain. The eye movement component of EMDR seems to allow clients to reprocess these memories, reducing their emotional intensity without the need for extensive discussion of the traumatic event. Witnessing clients reclaim their lives from the grip of trauma has truly underscored the value of EMDR in clinical settings.
