Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) relies on a client's own rapid, rhythmic eye movements, and is founded on the belief that these eye movements can weaken the intensity of emotionally charged memories. EMDR is most often used to treat PTSD or other traumas, but is also sometimes used for panic attacks, eating disorders, addictions, and anxiety. EMDR sessions can last up to 90 minutes, and usually starts with a client rating their level of distress. A therapist then typically moves their fingers in front of your face (or sometimes toe tapping or musical tones), asking you to follow along with your eyes, while you recall a traumatic event and all the sensations that come with it. You will gradually be guided by the therapist to shift thoughts from the traumatic experience to a more comforting one. The goal of EMDR is to make disturbing memories less immobilizing. Think this approach might be right for you? Reach out to one of TherapyDen’s EMDR specialists today.

I am passionate about supporting my clients in their unique process of growth, healing, and connecting to new inner awareness after traumatic events, during life transitions, through relationship challenges, during sexual difficulties or explorations, while navigating chronic illness, or through other mental health concerns. My clients include people across the spectrum of gender and sexual expression, poly and CNM folks. I am LGBTQIA+ inclusive and affirming as well as kink aware and affirming.

Are you experiencing symptoms of anxiety or depression from living in this difficult world? Perhaps you've experienced your own personal trauma, or are seeking to understand and find joy in identities that the majority population "others" or discriminates against. I enjoy working with people across the lifespan, especially those in the queer community who are seeking relief and are ready to explore ways to show up with more embodied joy and liberation.

I have experience helping clients overcome anxiety and depression, as well as difficult experiences including trauma and problematic behaviors. I work with my clients to reprocess challenging memories allowing them to regain control over their emotions and responses. I understand that things we go through can manifest in many ways, and I'm here to help you navigate the impact of the tough things in your life.

I specialize in supporting high achievers, underachievers, highly sensitive persons, and creatives. I also support adults who are racial, ethnic, social, or neuro minorities. Why does my specialization matter? You want a therapist who can understand the complexity of your life, identity, and history. You want someone who can see your strengths, respect your values, and challenge you in validating and positive ways.

Often, the people who find me have been disempowered in some way, whether through a traumatic experience or because they have gotten the message that their unique way of being isn't acceptable. These experiences can leave deep wounds and cause disconnection from self and others. My passion is helping people of all ages rediscover their voice and to fully embody who they want to be in the world.

Relationships are the foundation of our lives. Through connection with one another we can either thrive or feel isolated and alone. Working to strengthen or even rebuild connections with others and with ourselves is extremely important to creating a sense of community and acceptance. If our foundation feels secure and safe, we can then allow ourselves to thrive in other areas of our lives. However, if our connection with others feels uncertain it can leave us feeling disconnected and withdrawn.

My passion is working with youth and families impacted by complex, generational, and acute trauma. I believe that trauma can present itself in myriad of distressing symptoms including but not limited to outbursts, isolation, dissociation, difficulty in relationships, anxiety and fear, and loss of self.

We specialize in working with people who have experienced difficult life circumstances, highly sensitive people (HSP), and those who feel hopeless & anxious. They are often high achieving but struggle with feeling never good enough or unlovable. They are left feeling empty, shamed, & insignificant at the end of the day. We also help couples who feel that they have drifted apart & help grow intimacy and communication. We view our clients as intelligent, curious, and resourceful individuals.
