Processing pain to build peace
EMDR Therapy for Healing and Growth
I offer EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) therapy to help you or your child heal from trauma and painful memories. EMDR uses guided eye movements to process distressing experiences, reduce emotional pain, and foster healthier thoughts and behaviors. It’s particularly effective for PTSD, anxiety, and unresolved difficulties from the past. This approach can help untangle the weight of trauma, empowering you or your child to move forward with greater clarity, resilience, and peace of mind.
Helping kids and teens heal, grow, and rediscover their sense of safety
reach out
Trauma can leave kids and teens feeling overwhelmed, scared, or even disconnected from the world around them. It’s not always easy for them to put their feelings into words, and their struggles might show up as outbursts, withdrawal, or changes in mood. Therapy offers a safe space where they can explore their emotions at their own pace, uncover the stories behind their experiences, and begin to heal. Through compassionate support and creative approaches, I help kids and teens rebuild a sense of safety and confidence, empowering them to move forward with resilience and hope.
launching adults
Unresolved trauma from the past can make stepping into adulthood feel heavier than it should. Whether it’s difficulty trusting others, a constant sense of unease, or a fear of taking risks, these feelings can hold you back from building the life you want. In therapy, we’ll work together to untangle the roots of your pain and create space for healing and growth. By finding ways to process the past, we’ll help you strengthen your sense of self, discover new tools for navigating challenges, and build a life that feels freer, lighter, and more in your control.
