Therapy I Offer
Couples Therapy
I use a therapeutic model called Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT) to help couples establish new relational patterns built on emotional safety. Couples often get caught in rigid and predictable cycles that lead to disconnection, hurt, and loneliness. My goal is to increase the emotional safety in the relationship, as well as, to heal past relationship wounds. As a secure bond begins to be forged, conflict can then become a gateway to deeper intimacy, instead of distress.
Trauma Therapy: Brainspotting and (EMDR)
“Brainspotting is a powerful, focused treatment method that works by identifying, processing, and releasing core neurophysiological sources of emotional/body pain, trauma, dissociation, and a variety of other challenging symptoms. Brainspotting is a simultaneous form of diagnosis and treatment, enhanced with Bilateral sound, which is deep, direct, and powerful yet focused and containing.”(brainspotting.com)
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing therapy (EMDR) is used to help clients process painful memories and experiences so that they are not continually triggered in the present. Clients suffering from PTSD, unresolved trauma, depression, and anxiety find healing from this therapy. "This treatment approach, which targets past experience, current triggers, and future potential challenges, results in the alleviation of presenting symptoms, a decrease or elimination of distress from the disturbing memory, improved view of the self, relief from bodily disturbance, and resolution of present and future anticipated triggers"(EMDRIA).
