Professional Counseling & EMDR Therapy
EMDR Intensives
You’ve done the talking. Now let’s do the healing. EMDR therapy helps your mind and body process what you couldn’t before, at your pace, with care.
“I feel stuck. Like… really stuck.”
Not sure where to begin? That’s okay. Start here.
Life Feels Heavy...
You’re not the only one who feels this way — I hear it all the time.
If you’ve ever said those words quietly to yourself or out loud in a moment of frustration, you’re far from alone. Many people feel stuck in their own minds, caught in the same draining cycles, or living a life that feels like it’s on repeat.
Maybe you’ve tried all the “right” things — deep breathing, journaling, talking to friends, even therapy — and yet the heaviness stays. The shift you’re longing for doesn’t quite happen. It’s confusing, discouraging, and incredibly isolating.
But here’s the truth: you’re not broken.
And this stuck place isn’t forever.
Time To Get Unstuck
You deserve to feel lighter. More grounded. More like yourself again. You deserve clarity and freedom and a life that feels like it actually fits.
That’s where I come in.
Think of me as a guide walking alongside you as you get unstuck. No pressure. No rushing. Just steady support, meaningful breakthroughs, and space for you to move at the pace that feels right for you.
Have you ever wondered if what you’re feeling is “big enough” to deserve real help?
Relief Isn’t Just for the “Big Stuff”...
EMDR Therapy is often known for helping with trauma, it’s also incredibly effective for a wide range of life challenges—big or small. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, grief, chronic stress, low self-worth, a tough life transition, or just feeling emotionally stuck, EMDR Therapy can help your mind and body process what’s holding you back. You don’t need a specific diagnosis or a major event to benefit. If something is weighing on you, EMDR Therapy can support your healing, especially if you have tried traditional talk therapy and you still feel stuck.
“Okay, so what is EMDR therapy?”
It sounds intense, but I promise—it’s not as dramatic as it sounds. EMDR Therapy (short for Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing… and yes, it’s a mouthful) is a powerful, research-backed way to help your brain finish what it didn’t get to finish the first time around. Think of it like untangling a mental and emotional knot so you can finally exhale. I also bring in somatic therapy—gentle, body-based tools that help your nervous system feel grounded and safe as you heal. It’s your brain and body doing what they were designed to do—with just the right support to help you get there.
"So… What’s Somatic Therapy?"
While EMDR Therapy helps the brain process stuck memories and emotions, somatic therapy focuses on what your body is holding onto. Even if you think you’re over something… your nervous system might still be bracing for impact. Somatic therapy gently helps you reconnect with your body’s signals—like tension, restlessness, or that “tight in your chest” feeling—so you can feel more present, calm, and in control. It’s not about digging into trauma; it’s about helping your body feel safe again, one breath and moment at a time. Together with EMDR Therapy, it creates a deeper kind of healing—where your mind and body both get a say.
“What if I don’t even know why I feel this way?”

Sometimes self-awareness doesn’t arrive with a big breakthrough… it starts quietly.
Maybe you’ve noticed it too — the same conversations happening over and over, the same frustrations, the same emotional loops that leave you wondering, “Why am I still stuck in this?”
And then there’s that one moment — maybe after reacting too strongly to something small — where you pause and think,
“Okay… this isn’t really about what just happened. What’s actually going on here?”
If you’ve been there, you’re already on the path.
You’re searching for clarity, for language to describe the fog you’ve been living in, for a way to understand your own patterns instead of repeating them.
That’s exactly why The Astonishing Power of Self-Awareness hits so deeply.
You might not expect answers when you open it — but what you’ll find is even more important: insight, perspective, and that uncomfortable-but-essential moment of truth where real change begins.
If you’re ready to understand yourself on a deeper level… this book is where you start.
EMDRIA CERTIFIED THERAPIST
GET BETTER RESULTS WITH A CERTIFIED EMDR THERAPIST
Certified EMDR Therapist (Yep!)
While talk therapy can bring insight, sometimes you need more than insight—you need movement. EMDR Therapy helps you shift the stuck stuff at the root, not just talk about it on the surface. It works with your brain and body to gently process what’s holding you back, so you can finally feel real relief—not just temporary coping. As a certified EMDR therapist, I’m trained to help you get to that deeper place safely, at your pace, and with care. You don’t have to figure it all out before starting. You just have to take the first step.
Trained is good.
Certified is deeper, safer, and truly more effective.
Working with a certified EMDR therapist means you’re choosing someone who’s committed, experienced, and equipped to guide you through healing with confidence and respect. Ready for something that could really shift the needle? If you’ve been feeling stuck, it doesn’t mean you’re doing life wrong. It just means your nervous system needs a little support. That’s what therapy—and EMDR—is here for.
You don’t have to keep carrying this.
Let me help you move through it.
Not All EMDR Is the Same—Here’s Why EMDR Certification Makes a Difference
Choosing EMDR therapy? That’s a great first step for real healing. But you might wonder—what does it really mean when a therapist is EMDR certified rather than just trained? Here’s why certification truly matters for delivering the best results:
A certified EMDR therapist has gone beyond basic training. Certification requires:
Completing additional advanced training courses
Logging extensive supervised clinical hours and consultation
Working through dozens of EMDR sessions, often with a range of clients and experiences
This level of preparation means your therapist is not just familiar with EMDR—they’ve done EMDR with depth, focus, and safety in mind.
EMDR therapy can bring strong emotions to the surface—even long before you’re consciously aware of what’s happening. Certified therapists are trained to recognize and navigate these moments with care, keeping you grounded and safe throughout. Their certification ensures adherence to ethical and effective standards every step of the way.
Certification signals that your therapist commits to the highest standard of EMDR excellence. This is not just about credentials—it’s a mark of ongoing competence, professionalism, and respect for best practices backed by reputable associations. As clients, people feel more confident and referred therapists feel more secure referring to certified practitioners.
Since certified therapists deeply understand EMDR’s eight-phase process and how to adapt it to real-world complexities, sessions are more targeted, effective, and meaningful. That means you’re less likely to feel stuck in procedural therapy—and more likely to feel moved forward.
