Finding the right therapist is essential. I offer free consults so we can explore what you’re looking for, answer any questions, and make sure the space feels safe and supportive for you.

Therapy isn’t one-size-fits-all. Some come for short-term support, others stay longer to heal deeper wounds. We’ll tailor the process to your goals and needs. For EMDR, I recommend at least a 6-month commitment to allow time for safety-building and effective trauma work.

Many of my clients have already spent years in talk therapy. What we do together goes beyond analyzing. EMDR and somatic approaches help shift the stuck survival responses in your body, not just your thoughts, so you can feel real, lasting change!

EMDR is a therapy that helps you process and heal from trauma by using guided eye movements to reduce the intensity of painful memories. Learn more here.

EMDR is a versatile therapy that supports healing across a wide range of experiences. It can help you process everything from stressful work situations and painful breakups to more complex trauma like childhood abuse, sexual assault, and domestic violence. EMDR is also effective for anxiety, chronic pain, low self-worth, and relationship struggles, especially when rooted in attachment wounds. Whether you feel stuck in old patterns or overwhelmed by recent events, EMDR works by helping your brain and body reprocess what’s too much to carry alone.

Absolutely. You don’t need perfect memory or detailed stories for EMDR to help. EMDR works with how your body and nervous system store trauma, not just your thoughts. Even if you can’t name what happened, we can still process the feelings, sensations, or patterns that are showing up in the present.

EMDR isn’t about diving into trauma recklessly. It’s paced, intentional, and tailored to your nervous system’s capacity. We focus on safety and emotional regulation first. I’ll walk with you the whole way, and you get to choose what we work on, when we go there, and how fast we move.

EMDR can be helpful for a wide range of people—not just those with PTSD. If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed by past experiences, or constantly anxious, it might be a good fit. We’ll assess together during the consultation.

That’s okay. We move at your pace. Before we do any trauma processing, we focus on building safety, regulation, and trust so your nervous system feels ready. You’re always in control.

Yes, we definitely talk. EMDR is flexible, and every session can look different depending on what you need that day. Some sessions might involve deeper verbal processing, others might focus on body sensations, imagery, or resourcing for nervous system regulation. I integrate other therapies like somatic work, parts work (IFS), and Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT) to support you. EMDR isn’t rigid—it’s a framework we adapt to you.

No, EMDR is not hypnosis. You stay fully awake, alert, and in control throughout the process. EMDR uses bilateral stimulation (like eye movements or tapping) to help your brain reprocess memories while you remain grounded in the present. It’s more like guided attention—not altered states.
