My Areas Of Specialty

Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a powerful, research-backed approach to healing from trauma, loss, or painful life experiences that continue to affect you today. When distressing memories or beliefs get “stuck” in the nervous system, they can create patterns of self-criticism, fear, or shame that feel hard to shift. EMDR works by gently engaging your brain’s natural healing mechanisms—using eye movements, tapping, or other forms of bilateral stimulation—to help you reprocess those memories in a way that brings relief and resolution.

When past wounding goes unprocessed, it quietly informs your perspectives, choices, and relationships—even without your permission. EMDR helps interrupt that cycle by allowing your mind and body to release the charge those experiences still carry, making room for healing and change.

This process opens space to let go of negative self-beliefs and connect with a deeper sense of compassion, worthiness, and wellbeing. If you’ve carried painful stories for years, EMDR can help you finally move forward—with more ease, more self-trust, and the ability to live with greater intention.

Life transitions—whether expected or sudden—can stir up uncertainty, fear, and even grief. Changes like a career shift, moving, loss of a loved one, or starting a new chapter in life can leave you feeling unsteady and unsure of what’s next. It’s normal to feel overwhelmed during times of change, but you don’t have to face it alone. In therapy, we’ll create a safe space to process your emotions, explore your strengths, and discover new possibilities. Together, we’ll work on building resilience and finding clarity so you can navigate change with greater confidence and peace. With support, these difficult transitions can also become opportunities for growth and self-discovery.

Anxiety and depression can feel like constant companions—robbing you of rest, joy, and connection. Anxiety often brings racing thoughts, “what ifs,” and tension, while depression can leave you heavy, unmotivated, and disconnected from the people and things you love. Both can make everyday life feel harder than it should be. Therapy provides a safe, compassionate space to sort through these struggles and find relief. Together, we’ll work on calming anxious thoughts, lifting heavy emotions, and building coping strategies that support your well-being. With the right tools and understanding, it’s possible to feel more balanced, hopeful, and in control of your life again.

Trauma leaves lasting imprints, often affecting how you see yourself, your relationships, and the world around you. Painful experiences—whether from childhood, relationships, or life events—can resurface in unexpected ways, leaving you feeling stuck, triggered, or unsafe. Healing from trauma is not about “getting over it” but learning how to move through it with compassion and care. Therapy offers a safe, supportive environment to process your experiences at your own pace. Together, we’ll work on releasing what no longer serves you, soothing emotional pain, and building a stronger sense of self. With gentle support, you can begin to reclaim your voice, your peace, and your life.

Parenting is one of the most rewarding and challenging roles you’ll ever take on. It comes with moments of joy, but also frustration, guilt, and self-doubt. Balancing your child’s needs with your own well-being can feel overwhelming at times. Whether you’re navigating discipline, communication struggles, or simply the stress of keeping everything together, you don’t have to go through it alone. Therapy provides a safe space to reflect on your parenting challenges and explore new strategies that work for your unique family. Together, we’ll focus on strengthening your connection with your child, improving communication, and nurturing your own emotional health. With support, parenting can feel more manageable, fulfilling, and aligned with your values.

Living with ADHD can feel frustrating and discouraging. You may struggle with focus, organization, impulsivity, or restlessness, making work, school, and daily routines feel overwhelming. These challenges can also affect relationships and self-esteem, leaving you feeling misunderstood or “not enough.” The truth is, ADHD does not define you—and with the right support, you can thrive. Therapy offers practical tools and strategies to manage symptoms, build structure, and create systems that fit your life. Just as importantly, it provides a compassionate space to address the emotional impact of ADHD, fostering confidence and self-acceptance. Together, we’ll explore your strengths, identify what works for you, and help you move forward with clarity and empowerment.
