EMDR THERAPY
A trauma treatment approach that taps into the body and brain’s natural ability to heal.
Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR) is an evidence based trauma treatment approach. In my practice I provide EMDR therapy for:
Processing and healing past trauma (childhood trauma, attachment wounds, abuse and neglect, medical trauma)
Treating anxiety and depression during the fertility journey, pregnancy, and postpartum
Alleviating distress and PTSD symptoms from pregnancy and birth related trauma

indvidual EMDR Therapy
As your primary therapist, I will integrate EMDR therapy with other trauma informed modalities including Attachment-Focused resourcing, mind-body somatic techniques, and traditional talk therapy. We will go at a pace that honors your level of comfort and readiness. Adjunctive EMDR Therapy
You can keep meeting with your primary therapist when receiving Adjunctive EMDR treatment. I will collaborate with your primary therapist to provide EMDR therapy that can meet short term goals that support your work with your primary therapist. This may involve addressing specific triggers, traumas, negative beliefs with EMDR to provide relief and alleviation of symptoms. 
EMDR taps into the body and brain’s natural ability to heal, working with your nervous system to build resilience and coping strategies that help you process painful experiences of the past and feel more steady and confident in the present.
EMDR is created to help you:
Understand how your past experiences impact you in the present
Develop tools for coping, resilience, and inner peace
Cultivate empowering beliefs and views of yourself
Release negative beliefs about yourself that impact you in life and relationships
Develop a stable and attuned relationship with your body and mind
