Your Trusted Partner for Trauma Recovery & Mental Wellness
As a dedicated therapist, I specialize in helping individuals overcome emotional blockages that create tension and conflict in their lives. With over two decades of experience in clinical psychology and trauma-informed care, I utilize evidence-based modalities like EMDR, Brainspotting, and LENs neurofeedback to facilitate lasting emotional healing. My approach integrates advanced certifications in neuropsychotherapy, art therapy, and hypnosis to address trauma, anxiety, depression, and PTSD. Holding a Doctorate in Psychology and dual master's degrees, I combine academic rigor with compassionate practice to help clients resolve past experiences that hinder their present well-being. My work focuses on accessing the brain's innate capacity for healing through targeted neurofeedback and somatic processing techniques.Clients benefit from personalized strategies that address both immediate concerns and long-term emotional regulation. I maintain active certifications as an EMDRIA-approved consultant and LENs provider to ensure the highest standard of care. My practice emphasizes the scientific understanding of trauma's neurological impact while prioritizing client autonomy in the healing process. Through collaborative therapy, I help individuals transform self-limiting beliefs into empowering perspectives. My extensive experience working with trauma survivors has demonstrated the profound effectiveness of these modalities in achieving measurable outcomes.

EMDR Therapy
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) resolves traumatic memories by reprocessing distressing experiences stored in the brain. This evidence-based therapy reduces emotional charge from past events, allowing clients to recall traumatic memories without triggering negative physical or emotional responses. Particularly effective for PTSD, anxiety, and depression, EMDR helps clients break free from self-limiting beliefs rooted in past experiences.
Brainspotting
Brainspotting accesses trauma stored in the brain's subcortical regions through eye position targeting. This somatic approach identifies 'brainspots' that activate traumatic memories, enabling clients to process and resolve emotional blockages. Effective for anxiety, depression, and complex trauma, it complements EMDR by addressing deep-seated emotional wounds that traditional talk therapy cannot access.
LENs Neurofeedback
LENs (Low Energy Neurofeedback System) recalibrates brain function through gentle electromagnetic signals. This non-invasive treatment regulates the central nervous system, reducing symptoms of anxiety, ADHD, and traumatic brain injuries. By mirroring the brain's electrical patterns, LENs helps normalize neural activity, improving emotional regulation and cognitive clarity without medication.

Questions
What makes EMDR different from traditional therapy?
EMDR directly targets trauma stored in the brain's subcortical regions using bilateral stimulation, unlike talk therapy that focuses on conscious processing. This allows for faster, more permanent resolution of traumatic memories.
How does Brainspotting help with anxiety?
By identifying eye positions linked to traumatic memories, Brainspotting accesses and processes the root causes of anxiety stored in the body's nervous system, reducing chronic anxiety symptoms.
What conditions respond best to LENs neurofeedback?
LENs effectively treats anxiety disorders, ADHD, traumatic brain injuries, and nervous system dysregulation by recalibrating brainwave patterns through low-frequency electromagnetic signals.
How many sessions are typically needed?
Most clients experience significant improvement in 3-6 sessions, though treatment duration varies based on trauma complexity and individual processing speed.
Can these therapies help with childhood trauma?
Yes, these modalities effectively resolve childhood trauma by reprocessing stored memories that continue to trigger emotional responses in adulthood.
