Weekly EMDR therapy

Trauma Therapy Beyond Reproductive Experiences

We all have a story.

You don't have to fit into a specific one to belong here.

While much of my work centers around reproductive trauma, I have a small amount of weekly slots for weekly therapy. I support women navigating emotional pain from childhood trauma or recent adult experiences of trauma. If you find yourself struggling with something that feels hard to name, or if you've wondered whether therapy could help with the weight you carry, you're in the right place.

I work with people who are processing:

  • Complex or developmental trauma

  • Childhood emotional neglect or abuse

  • Grief and ambiguous loss

  • Anxiety and perfectionism

  • Chronic stress, burnout, and people-pleasing

  • Life transitions and identity shifts

  • A general sense of being stuck, disconnected, or "not yourself"

Long-term or short-term support, shaped around your needs

Some clients come to therapy looking for a weekly steady, long-term space to unpack their story over time. Others are seeking focused, goal-oriented work through EMDR intensives but may need some weekly support to prepare for those sessions.

Whatever your path, I offer a flexible, compassionate approach rooted in trauma-informed care and nervous system awareness. We’ll work together to find a rhythm that supports your healing—without rushing or forcing anything.

The work we do together might focus on:

  • Identifying and shifting negative core beliefs

  • Processing painful memories through EMDR

  • Building emotional regulation and self-trust

  • Exploring relational patterns and attachment wounds

  • Tending to grief and losses that are hard to talk about

Treatment Approach

  • Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing (EMDR) is a comprehensive treatment approach that supports you in being able to think and feel differently about upsetting events in your life. EMDR is an evidence based practice that has been highly researched to show its effectiveness in symptom reduction. While originally developed as a treatment for post traumatic stress disorder, EMDR research has shown positive clinical outcomes for a variety of symptoms. I consider EMDR an effective approach for any life event that has created distress and disruption to your nervous system.

    EMDR therapy is done in 8 phases with the first two phases focusing on stabilization and preparation. I will be teaching you skills to increase your ability to self regulate as well as build adaptive information. We will review psychoeducation on how the brain/body responds to distress that may lead you to think/feel “I make sense” which can be a very powerful moment in your healing journey.

    When we both determine readiness to address the specific distressing event (in EMDR lingo, called a target) we begin the desensitization and reprocessing phase of treatment. This often involves asking a client to gently think about some components of the stressful event while simultaneously pairing a form of bilateral stimulation (BLS). This phase of treatment does not require you to talk in detail about the event which can make the process more tolerable for some clients.

  • Egostate therapy is founded on the theory that we all have states of consciousness that represent different parts of ourselves. We may have states or parts responsible for everyday life, parts that help us function, parts that struggle or parts that hold onto past experiences. Our individual personalities are the sum of all these parts. I use egostate therapy with many of my clients as it helps us to conceptualize ourselves in a non judgmental way. This allows for you to approach yourself with more curiosity and compassion. We will work together to identify and explore all parts of your self. We will support you in strengthening your more grounded parts through resource development techniques.

    We all have parts of us that struggle or may need to be seen, heard and helped.  These struggling parts may hold the challenging past experiences you have gone through or their related symptoms.  As we work with these parts— identifying and understanding them— our goal is to offer opportunities for healing. All parts of you are deserving of being unburdened from pain they’ve held, often by themselves for too long. EMDR therapy and egostate therapy are often integrated to support parts’ healing.

  • We don’t exist in isolation—our emotions, patterns, and struggles are often shaped by the families and relationships we’ve been part of. A family systems approach helps us explore how these dynamics have influenced you, not to assign blame, but to bring clarity and choice to the way you move forward. Through exploring larger systems and their impact we are often able to understand more about how the past impact the present and can find experiences that benefit from EMDR processing work.

I use EMDR, Egostate therapy (parts work), and a systemic approach to support deep, embodied healing.

You’re working through PTSD, childhood trauma, or dissociation and want steady, ongoing support.

You feel like you’re still stuck in the same patterns and want an approach that helps you process trauma on a deeper, more embodied level.
