EMDR Therapy is my passion! Trauma Psychology and its biology, physiology, and brain anatomy is a natural progression with my adjunct skills as a Registered Nurse. Like a broken leg, a skin wound, or a dislocated shoulder, the traumatized/wounded brain needs intervention to assimilate bad and traumatized memories. Without intervention, you may continue to have problems with anything that reminds you of your traumatic experience.
Trauma, and especially childhood physical/emotional/sexual abuse and neglect issues, as well as early adult difficulties, are my passion. I love to assist others with these sensitive and tender areas of life.
Originally, I created my practice exclusively for EMDR Therapy, becoming proficient in early childhood abuse and adult trauma known as complex PTSD. I practice EMDR Therapy’s updated, safe, and effective protocol, including Advanced EMDR Techniques where lights and eye movement are not recommended.
EMDR is efficient and effective. No more committing to years of therapy. Just 2 times through a memory in EMDR can deliver the same resolution as 2 to 4 months of talk therapy. My approach combines talk therapy and EMDR for longer-lasting results. Emotional reminders of the memory disappear or decrease significantly. Multiple years of difficult memories can be “cleared out” and triggers become non-existent. The process is refreshing and Liberating!!

EMDR is not the right fit for everyone, which we will determine during your first few intake sessions. Sometimes all you need is a compassionate therapist.
