About My Clients
My clients are amazing. They've shown up with a variety of issues, often with shame, always with strengths and survival behind them. I love finding their beautiful strength that will help them heal.
My Background and Approach
With EMDR, we find what works, enhance it; find what holds them back, and address it. Everything we do makes sense somehow, even if it isn't working for us any more. Life is a challenge. We do what we have to do to get through and keep going. That's amazing. Sometimes, what we do in the crisis to make it through leaves bumps and bruises that get in the way later. In therapy, we can address those bruises, heal them, and return to the high level of functioning you deserve. My favorite tool is EMDR. You can reprocess your difficult memories, taking their power away. I'll be by your side the whole way, and we won't make you relive it like it is happening again.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
Everyone is doing the best they can with what they have and what they know. With some support, they know better and can do better. This applies to me, too. I invest my time and resources in anti-racism efforts and improving my support and understanding of the LGBTQIA+ community. We use the Violet platform to improve our cultural competence in healthcare provision. Additionally, I've been able to work with clients of different faiths, identifying the aspects of a client's spiritual beliefs that convey strength and understanding and align with who they want to be. I am not an expert in any client's faith, but I can help the client explore what is important about their spiritual experience and help them integrate it into how they greet the world.
