When we are no longer able to change a situation, we are challenged to change ourselves.

Types of Therapy Offered
EMDR
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a therapy technique that helps people heal from traumatic memories by having them recall the event while simultaneously focusing on a back-and-forth movement, like following a therapist's finger moving side to side, which allows the brain to process and lessen the emotional charge of the memory; essentially, it's a way to "re-process" disturbing experiences by engaging both the mind and the body through controlled eye movements
Attachment Focused
Attachment focused therapy focuses on exploring the impact of early attachment figures that have led to difficulties in navigating current relationships. Through an attachment lens the therapist will help the client explore negative patterns that started with early childhood attachment figures and are being reenacted in current relationships. The therapist and client will identify these learned behaviors and replace them with healthier behaviors. The therapist will assist the client in learning and implementing healthy communication skills and setting healthy boundaries in relationships.
Faith Based
Using Biblical principles, the therapist helps identify and explore the client’s true identity in Jesus Christ. The therapist will implement scripture and spiritual practices to encourage each client to reframe their thoughts and work towards deepening their faith all while healing from past wounds. This approach is only offered to clients who are interested and want to proceed with a faith based therapy model. I work with and respect individuals from all different religious and cultural backgrounds.
