Healing Beyond the Past | Psychotherapy & EMDR Therapy
My goal is to help you feel safe, heard, and supported as you heal and grow.
First session
Your first session is a chance for us to connect in a safe, judgment-free space. We'll discuss what brings you to therapy, explore your concerns and goals, and begin creating a personalized plan. There's no pressure to share everything at once. We'll move at a pace that feels comfortable for you.
Strengths
I bring compassion, empathy, and a nonjudgmental approach to every session. With specialized training in EMDR and experience treating trauma, I create a safe, supportive space where clients can process painful experiences, challenge negative beliefs, and move toward lasting healing.
Ideal clients
I help people who feel lost, sad, tense, or stuck. You may face stress, fear, low mood, or pain from past abuse or trauma. You want to feel safe, calm, and more like you. We can work on your goals with talk therapy or EMDR. You do not have to know where to start. We can find a way forward together.
Treatment methods
Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)
I incorporate Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) into my practice as an effective therapeutic approach. This method focuses on identifying and challenging negative thought patterns and behaviors to promote positive changes. Through collaborative efforts with clients, we work together to develop coping strategies and cultivate healthier perspectives, ultimately fostering personal growth and improved mental well-being.
Acceptance and commitment (ACT)
I integrate Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) into my practice, emphasizing mindfulness, acceptance of thoughts and feelings, and commitment to value-driven actions. This approach helps clients develop psychological flexibility, enabling them to live more meaningful lives by embracing challenges and pursuing valued goals despite inner struggles.
Motivational Interviewing
I leverage Motivational Interviewing in my practice to facilitate client-centered conversations that explore and strengthen motivation for positive change. By employing reflective listening and collaborative goal-setting, I help clients overcome ambivalence and enhance their intrinsic motivation, fostering a supportive environment for sustainable behavioral transformations.
EMDR
I have specialized training in EMDR and incorporate this evidence-based treatment with individuals experiencing trauma, anxiety, depression, and other stress-related concerns. My approach includes assessment, preparation, resource development, reprocessing, and integration, while maintaining a strong focus on client safety, empowerment, and emotional regulation.
