Introduction

You might be anxious, dreading each day, stuck, and angry still carrying the past's pain and trauma and really wanting to find a way to be free of the memories, shame, and panic attacks so you can live your best life. You might question how others seem to get life “right” because their social media posts don't look anything like how you feel. Relationships are suffering, and you don't want to pass these feelings on to those you love. You want to be free, confident, happy, and at peace with who you are as a person and the future that is yours yet to live. Using talk therapy and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing), I can help you find release from the pain and traumatic events that keep popping up in your life like a misplaced folder in a file cabinet. Anxiety, panic, trauma, and fear can be lessened so that you can live a happy life free from anxiety-ridden thoughts and feelings. Clients say they feel safe sharing the ugliness of their past (and present) due to my professional practice and grounding in proven therapeutic techniques, a lifetime of personal experiences that provide empathy, and a faith perspective that doesn't push. Please look at my website today and give me a call for a free 15-minute phone consultation!
