I am trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) Therapy. This is an extensively researched evidenced-based treatment approach for recovery from post-traumatic stress (including complex PTSD and childhood emotional neglect) and other past distressing life experiences that have caused or contributed to emotional suffering, distorted beliefs (example: "I'm not enough"), and physiological over/under arousal in the present (think the 4 F's - fight/flight/freeze/fawn).
Inadequately processed memories can result in negative beliefs about self, others, and the world around us, as well as difficulties experiencing joy and gaining perspective in the present. When triggered, these beliefs can override all logic and have lasting heavy impacts on our relationships, our parenting, our careers, and our overall sense of self and wellbeing. EMDR Therapy works by allowing you to fully process your past experiences and address present triggers in a way that reduces current symptoms, integrates new learnings, and reformulates core beliefs that are holding you back in life and negatively impacting you and your relationships. In other words, the EMDR process helps shift the beliefs that have been keeping you stuck. For more information about EMDR and how it may be helpful for you. Please check out: www.emdria.org
