How I can help

I am certified in EMDR and have training in additional techniques to help relieve stress quickly, whether these events are recent or old. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing is an evidence-based intervention to help remove the physiological and emotional impacts of adverse or traumatic experiences.

I am certified in Trauma Sensitive Yoga, which can help the body feel relaxed and release tension from work stress.

Trauma-Focused Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is a structured form of talk therapy to help build skills to combat the impacts of trauma and work through the narrative of what happened.

What is EMDR?

EMDR is a form of exposure and desensitization which helps to remove hypervigilance and physiological responses in the body from memories.
