Are you tired of feeling like life will never get better? That you’ll always be impacted by memories from your past? That the anxiety, depression, self-doubt, guilt, relationship problems, or physical pain will never go away? Feel like you should be able to “just get over it”? You’ve come to the right place—there is hope! Did you know trauma comes in all forms and can impact people very differently? Complex trauma can develop due to multiple distressing events that typically happen over a period of time. Or trauma can be a single event such as a car accident, animal bite, complicated surgery, or traumatic birthing experience.
I specialize in working with clients who are struggling from traumatic and distressing events. I primarily utilize Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) in conjunction with other therapeutic techniques. I was trained in EMDR in 2015 and over the years have found EMDR to be very effective in helping clients in the healing process.
The good news is if you’re ready to put in the work, you can heal from these experiences and move forward in your life! I would love the opportunity to be part of your journey to creating a more fulfilling life.
