Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) relies on a client's own rapid, rhythmic eye movements, and is founded on the belief that these eye movements can weaken the intensity of emotionally charged memories. EMDR is most often used to treat PTSD or other traumas, but is also sometimes used for panic attacks, eating disorders, addictions, and anxiety. EMDR sessions can last up to 90 minutes, and usually starts with a client rating their level of distress. A therapist then typically moves their fingers in front of your face (or sometimes toe tapping or musical tones), asking you to follow along with your eyes, while you recall a traumatic event and all the sensations that come with it. You will gradually be guided by the therapist to shift thoughts from the traumatic experience to a more comforting one. The goal of EMDR is to make disturbing memories less immobilizing. Think this approach might be right for you? Reach out to one of TherapyDen’s EMDR specialists today.

Finding a therapist who you are comfortable with can help with overcoming periods of feeling trapped in a negative cycle. My goal as your therapist will be to create a safe space where we can explore ways to decrease distress, so that you can live life feeling lighter and unburdened. Therapy is a journey you and I take together. In times of pain and discomfort, we have the potential to grow into a stronger version of ourselves.

Are you having symptoms that seem pesky to fully resolve? Stuck in a loop of anxiety, depression, panic attacks, numbness, or shame spirals? Most people come to my practice to gain a sense of what patterns are keeping these symptoms stuck (even when past counseling as not worked). Together we face what has been avoided, in life and in other therapies, so we can truly move forward and achieve greater satisfaction and fulfillment in our lives.

If you're struggling to maintain your basic needs because you're in survival mode, I see you. It can feel impossible to navigate chronic burnout, especially when the path may be blocked by barriers related to chronic illness, executive functioning and sensory needs, and/or unprocessed trauma. These barriers can often be paired with shame and guilt, which makes it difficult to connect with others around you. While it may feel overwhelming to find a path to healing, I am here to help co-navigate.

I work with clients around topics such as religious and spiritual trauma, old belief systems or fundamentalist systems that have negatively impacted them, trauma, attachment and current dysfunctional patterns that result from past experiences. Often trauma symptoms, anxiety, and depression are a part of this. I enjoy folks who are open to challenging themselves within a safe space and are ready to make connections around how their past is impacting the present.

Many of the people I work with are navigating faith transitions, deconstructing long-held beliefs, or healing from the impact of high-control or authoritarian religion.

They’re often seeking clarity, connection, and a more authentic sense of self—even if they’re not sure where to begin.
