Have you already spent months or years in traditional talk therapy—understanding why you react the way you do—only to still feel that familiar drop in your stomach, tightness in your chest, or wave of panic when triggered? Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) does not erase your life experiences, but it changes how your brain and body store and respond to them. By engaging your brain's natural adaptive information processing system, EMDR helps unhook distressing memories, body sensations, and negative self-beliefs so they no longer hijack your present life.

I completed EMDRIA Basic Training in 2007 and have been an EMDRIA-Certified Therapist and Approved Consultant since 2011. Because I am also a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner (SEP), I pair EMDR with somatic nervous-system regulation. Before we ever reprocess a target memory, we make sure your nervous system is grounded and resourced so the work feels safe, contained, and deeply effective rather than overwhelming—whether in weekly 50-minute sessions ($225) or a multi-hour EMDR Intensive.

What Clients Can Expect With EMDR:

• Somatic + EMDR Integration: Pairs bilateral reprocessing with Somatic Experiencing (SEP) and IFS parts work so your body stays regulated while clearing stuck trauma responses.

• Relief Beyond Talk Therapy: Targets the physical and emotional triggers (racing heart, knot in the stomach, intrusive memories, shame spirals) that insight alone hasn't resolved.

• Issues EMDR Helps Resolve: Complex PTSD, childhood abuse or neglect, sexual trauma, relationship betrayal, medical or birth trauma, phobias, nightmares, panic, grief, and addiction triggers.

• Weekly or Intensive Formats: Available as ongoing weekly 50-minute sessions ($225) or condensed EMDR Intensives, plus EMDRIA Consultation for fellow clinicians ($125 individual / $65 group).
