“What does love look like? It has the hands to help others. It has the feet to hasten to the poor and needy. It has eyes to see misery and want. It has the ears to hear the sighs and sorrows of men. That is what love looks like.” ― Augustine of Hippo, Confessions

Many individuals can experience symptoms associated with painful and traumatic circumstances. Anxiety, fear, and hopelessness are a few emotions that can linger post traumatic events. Together, we can help you overcome these symptoms and guide you through the process of grief and healing.  I utilize many powerful tools including EMDR to help individuals find resolution to traumas in their life.  

I specialize in the utilization of Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) an effective therapeeutic modality for trauma.  EMDR is extremely effective for trauma from catastrophic events as well as other  complex  trauma.  I have advanced training: in the following applications for EMDR:

• Standard EMDR Protocol
•  The Recent Event Protocol 
• Grief,, Loss and Mourning
• The Flash Technique

We often need space to tell our story in a non-judgmental safe place.  It is important to me to provide that space where people can process issues and perhaps write a new narrative, develop stronger internal resources and find resolution.  Sometimes speaking your story out loud with an empathic, non-judgmental person is worth its weight in gold.  

Depression, fear, and anxiety are some of the most common and uncomfortable emotions that we can experience at some point in our lives. Through counseling and treatment, we work, together to help you recover motivation, perspective, and joy in your life. 

While my practice is open to people of all faith traditions, as a Christian therapist, I delight in helping people to strengthen their faith.  Sometimes we need help to resolve old wounds that keep us from experiencing the unconditional love of God.  I am always honored to help others on their journey.
