About My Clients
You may find your emotions to be overwhelming. When things are bad, they feel really bad. Afraid of your own feelings, you find yourself going to great lengths to avoid them all together. Maybe, traditional talk therapy just has not worked for you. Perhaps you are looking for more guidance, that brings along lasting change. If you can relate, I am here to compassionately guide you through the intricate terrain of your emotions.
My Background and Approach
I am trained in EMDR, designed to reduce emotional distress due to traumatic life experiences. I also have special training in its use for helping those with borderline personality disorder and early childhood wounds, and anxiety-related issues. EMDR is considered a first-line treatment for trauma and has been shown to reduce emotional distress and accelerate the healing process. In addition, I use cognitive processing therapy (CPT), which has similar aims through different treatment techniques. Somatic (mind-body) & parts work through Internal Family Systems (IFS), are also incorporated throughout the treatment process. We can talk about what will be the best fit for you. I also incorporate dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT) and cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) skills for emotion regulation to tackle issues such as anxiety, depression, and anger. My clients will have take-home strategies that they can use outside of therapy.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I believe that you are the way you are for a very good reason. This beliefs guides my work to allow me to compassionately help you uncover what is under the surface, and what could be holding you back from the life you want to live.
