I support adults navigating trauma, c-PTSD, anxiety, depression, chronic stress, relationship patterns, ADHD, and burnout. I help clients regulate their nervous system, process past experiences, and develop healthier patterns in daily life.

My approach is trauma-informed and integrative. I combine EMDR, polyvagal and somatic therapies, parts work, attachment theory, and practical skills-building to support nervous system healing. I work collaboratively, at your pace, with warmth and clarity.

Your first session focuses on getting to know you—your history, current challenges, and what you hope to achieve. We’ll explore your nervous system patterns and begin grounding skills so you feel supported from the start.

This varies for each client. Some people notice shifts within a few sessions; others engage longer to work through deeper patterns. We discuss your goals together and adjust the plan as needed.

EMDR helps your brain reprocess past experiences that are still affecting you today. Using bilateral stimulation (such as eye movements or tapping), EMDR supports the brain’s natural ability to heal, reduce distress, and shift negative beliefs.

Talk therapy focuses on exploring your thoughts, emotions, and experiences through conversation. It helps you gain insight, develop coping strategies, and understand patterns in your life.

EMDR works differently. Instead of relying mostly on talking, it uses bilateral stimulation (such as eye movements, tapping, or sound) to help your brain reprocess distressing memories at a deeper, neurological level. This allows the emotional “charge” of past experiences to soften so you can respond with more clarity, regulation, and resilience.

Many clients appreciate that EMDR feels more active and targeted, especially for trauma, anxiety, and long-standing patterns that haven’t shifted through talk therapy alone.

Yes. EMDR is highly effective online. I use secure, evidence-based virtual tools designed specifically for bilateral stimulation. Clients often find virtual EMDR comfortable and grounding in their own space.
