About My Clients
When starting therapy, my clients reported self criticism, overwhelm, and other trauma symptoms. My clients describe a range of reactions to that inner negativity that comes out as anxiety, depression, or general discontentment with life. My clients can't catch a break as this shows up in almost all areas of life - friendship, romantic partners, work, and alone time. I want to help you start to enjoy your life and be a more active part of it.
My Background and Approach
Trauma therapy can seem really intimidating. People often conceive of the process as scary, painful, and overwhelming. But it definitely does not have to be that way. One of my primary goals in working with clients is to ensure that we are progressing at a pace that they are comfortable with. We will take as much time as is needed! I am trained in EMDR, and I have found that experiential therapies in general can be incredible treatment approaches. Many people prefer this kind of therapy because it resonates at a deeper level than approaches often used in talk therapy.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I think that more conventional approaches to talk therapy, such as CBT, can sometimes leave clients feeling like something is "wrong" with them when the skills and strategies that they are provided with do not seem to work. Experiential approaches to therapy, like EMDR, which focus on going into the experience instead of talking about the experience can create an opportunity to shift perspectives in a very powerful way, and on a deeper level than more traditional approaches to therapy.
