EMDR Therapy
Learn to Rewrite Your Past and Move Forward into the Future with Confidence and Optimism
Few things in life are more frustrating – or more painful – than feeling stuck in the same place no matter how hard you try to break free.
Maybe you are overwhelmed by anxiety, haunted by past experiences, constantly second-guessing yourself, or feel detached, unsafe, on edge, or powerless, and you are specifically looking for an EMDR therapist who can help.
Or, if you are like a lot of the clients who come to me for help, maybe you have already tried therapy, mindfulness, or self-help tools, but nothing seems to create lasting change.
If any of this sounds familiar, EMDR Therapy might be the breakthrough you have been looking for.
I have seen just how heavy unresolved emotional wounds can become for people – even long after the event has passed. It can feel like carrying a weight no one else can see. It affects how you show up in relationships, how you respond to stress, and even how you see yourself. And no matter how much insight you gain or how many coping skills you try, it can feel like something deeper inside just will not shift.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy is a powerful, research-backed, interactive, and integrative approach to individual counseling and therapy that is being used around the world thanks to its proven effectiveness in helping people work through and resolve:
- Trauma and PTSD
- Anxiety, Stress, Panic Attacks, and Phobias
- Depression, Grief, and Loss
- Difficult Life Transitions
- Self-Esteem Issues
- Performance Anxiety or Creative Blocks
- Chronic Pain or Illness
- Childhood or Attachment Wounds
- Disturbing Memories or Abuse
The power of EMDR Therapy lies in its ability to help you “reprocess” emotionally difficult and painful experiences in a way that allows you to experience a greater sense of self-confidence and personal agency, feel more resolved, less triggered, and more at peace, without having to go into agonizing detail about the experiences themselves.
If you feel stuck and nothing has helped you move forward, I encourage you to contact me today and find out whether EMDR Therapy is the answer you have been looking for.
How Does EMDR Therapy Work?
When something overwhelming or traumatic happens, your brain may not be able to fully process the experience.
In other words, painful experiences can get “stuck” in our nervous systems, leaving behind distressing thoughts, emotions, or physical sensations.
EMDR helps unlock those stuck memories so your brain can process and store them properly – like it would with any non-disturbing experience.
Unlike traditional talk therapy, EMDR uses bilateral stimulation – often in the form of eye movements, tapping, or sounds – while you gently focus on specific thoughts or feelings. I will guide you through this process, helping your brain reprocess painful experiences in a way that reduces emotional intensity and opens the door for new, healthier beliefs to emerge (for example, shifting from “I’m not safe” to “I’m okay now” or “It wasn’t my fault”).
EMDR Therapy can help you quite literally redefine and rewrite your past in a way that leaves you feeling empowered by the same experiences that once caused you to feel like a victim.
You will not just “feel better” – you will feel different. The same experiences that once left you feeling powerless can be transformed into sources of strength and resilience.
And EMDR Therapy is not just about helping you cope with and overcome past trauma …
You will also learn to develop specific skills, attitudes, and behaviors that you can use to better handle any future situations on your own.

Am I the Best EMDR Therapist for You?
While EMDR can be an incredibly powerful healing technique, no one psychotherapy approach works equally well for everyone.
We all take different paths towards healing and growth.
This is why it is usually best to find a behavioral and mental health therapist who is not only trained in EMDR, but who can also incorporate other healing modalities into sessions when necessary.
As a Certified EMDR therapist who is also trained in Psychodynamic Psychotherapy, Internal Family Systems (IFS Therapy), Sensorimotor Psychotherapy, CBT, ACT, DBT, harm reduction, and mindfulness, I always strive to tailor my work to meet the needs of each client in the moment, while still focusing on each client’s goals for therapy.
But most important of all, you need to find a therapist you feel comfortable and safe with – one who you feel understands your unique personality and needs.
After all, if you don’t feel able to be open and honest with your therapist, you will find it next to impossible to do the deep work necessary to heal and grow.
So how do you know if I am the best EMDR therapist for you?
The only way to really find out is to contact me, schedule a free consultation, and see if we are a good fit for working together.
What I can tell you is that EMDR is a collaborative process.
In our work together, you will always be met with compassion, curiosity, and care. I will tailor each session to meet you where you are – whether that means focusing on the past, staying grounded in the present, or building tools for the future.
We will move at your pace. You are always in control of the process. And I will make sure you feel safe, grounded, and supported every step of the way.
Many of my clients describe EMDR therapy with me as a gentle but deep form of healing – one that helps them finally move forward without having to relive every painful detail.
And most are surprised at how quickly they experience relief – even when they have been stuck for years.
If you are tired of carrying the same emotional weight day after day – wondering if things will ever change – I invite you to reach out today. Schedule a free, 15-minute initial phone consultation, ask any questions you have, and take the first step toward redefining your past, reclaiming the present, and moving forward into the future with confidence and optimism.
