Specialties
Trauma and EMDR
If you are struggling with depression, anxiety or panic attacks- these are often symptoms of underlying trauma or experiences in life that have not been processed, together we will work to figure the root of your symptoms and process any trauma or experiences that continue to create symptoms and disrupt the nervous system.
Complex Trauma
Complex trauma includes people who have experienced complex and varying trauma across different
periods in their life and can include PTSD symtpoms or just being stuck in a dsyregulated nervous system state.
Perinatal
I work with women who are on prenatal and postpartum journeys, whether it is wanting to work on your relationship with your mother and trauma there before becoming a mother yourself, birth trauma, loss, fear, prenatal or postpartum depression or anxiety, we will work with whatever is coming up for you at any stage of the motherhood journey using trauma informed care and techniques.
Fertility Struggles
I use EMDR as well as other modalities to support you through the fertility journey whether it be repeated struggles, and disappointments, miscarriages/loss or IVF. Sometimes negative thoughts and beliefs form or old traumas play into how someone is feeling as they struggle with fertility. I will support you in whatever way feels best for you but have found that EMDR can be very helpful.
Couples Therapy and EMDR
I work with couples to identify what is causing their triggers, meaning what causes them to get upset or angry during a fight, or possibly withdraw and shut down. I meet with both the couple as a couple and each person individually. We will work to identify the triggers, process them using EMDR and also help each person in the couple understand and support each other while also owning their own part. The goal is for each person to be much more empowered around their own responses when there is conflict and to be able to stay regulated in order to work through the conflict together.
