Seeking counseling can feel daunting, but finding a counselor you feel comfortable with is crucial. Therapists are trained in maintaining confidentiality, making us great secret keepers. I want your counseling experience to be a safe, judgment-free space where you can feel comfortable sharing your story and begin the healing process.
I offer virtual EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing) therapy using the secure online platform SimplePractice. This provides a convenient and secure location for therapy sessions of your choice. As a licensed therapist in Pennsylvania and New Jersey, I can provide therapy anywhere in the state of PA or NJ.
I am certified in EMDR by EMDRIA, the governing body of EMDR. I am also certified in Dissociative Disorders through the Institute for Creative Mindfulness and trained in Somatic EMDR with The Embody Lab. Somatic therapy is a technique that helps clients connect with sensations in their bodies. It's important to note that EMDR is not hypnosis. It doesn't make you forget memories; it helps heal the emotional impact of those memories. During EMDR desensitization (eye movements or tapping), you are in full control and awareness. I have personally experienced healing through EMDR therapy. Please watch the videos on my “Services” page for a deeper understanding of what to expect.
If you are open to alternative methods of healing, I am the therapist for you. My approach is personalized rather than following a one-size-fits-all model.
Have you experienced childhood abuse (emotional, verbal, physical, sexual, or spiritual)? Are you an adult who dissociates? I specialize in trauma recovery and can assist you on this delicate journey to healing. This process requires care, time, and understanding, and I can provide the support you need.
If you're reading this, you may feel anxious, frustrated, or overwhelmed; allow me to help you transform those feelings. I can assist you in overcoming obstacles that have you feeling stuck so you can move forward in your life. I work with adult clients who are seeking healing and are open to exploring childhood trauma.
