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

Individual, EMDR therapy only. First session, we will begin discussing EMDR, a therapy that helps your brain properly process painful or traumatic memories. Through EMDR (eye movement desensitization and reprocessing), a trauma informed therapy, we gently help your brain and body release these stuck survival responses, work to process stuck stories and inherited emotions you may be holding. Intergenerational trauma can live in your body, your emotions, and your nervous system, whether or not the original events were ever talked about. *******I am currently offering EMDR-informed trauma therapy under supervision while completing EMDRIA-approved training. Together we can create a space where you feel seen, supported, and empowered to reclaim your voice and your story. You can start living from a place of choice and not just reaction.*********

The biggest strengths that I bring into our sessions

I want to create a safe space and invite people of color who are being racially profiled and targeted in public spaces, anxiety tied to immigration status, racial/cultural trauma, emotional impact of racism/deportation fears, shame/guilt, hypervigilance, depression, emotional numbness, family pressure, people pleasing, perfectionism, made to feel as they are "not good enough", feeling responsible for everyone's emotions, cultural identity, internalized shame or silence around your culture/identity/or needs, family expectations, or intergenerational trauma. *******I am currently offering EMDR-informed trauma therapy under supervision while completing EMDRIA-approved training.

The clients I'm best positioned to serve

I work with adults who are ready to heal from trauma utilizing EMDR, whether it's rooted in childhood, culture, lived experiences or deep wounds from family and culture. Survivors of emotional neglect and abuse, adult and childhood trauma, attachment wounds or unresolved PTSD (post traumatic stress disorder). For those individuals who are carrying pain that often isn't visible, yet runs deep. Pain shaped by trauma, culture, family, and the systems we move through daily. I specialize in working with trauma, anxiety, depression and the layered pain of intergenerational trauma mainly utilizing emdr. I understand how healing is not just individual, it's ancestral, cultural, and collective. My approach honors your lived experience and invites you to reconnect with your strength, identity and resilience. *******I am currently offering EMDR-informed trauma therapy under supervision while completing EMDRIA-approved training.
