Therapy Services
Traditional Talk Therapy
Our experiences and stories cannot and do not exist in a vacuum. I have completed extensive training and education in intersectional feminist and anti-oppressive work. The systems in which we live impact the landscape of our inner lives.
​
Acknowledging and internally dismantling the harmful beliefs we have been taught through these systems is centered in the work I do. When utilizing traditional talk therapy, I use this lens, along with application of training completed in Mindful Self-Compassion, Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction, Motivational Interviewing, Internal Family Systems, and Relational Therapy in order to best help you meet your goals.
EMDR Therapy
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a structured therapy that encourages the client to focus briefly on a traumatic memory while simultaneously experiencing bilateral stimulation (typically eye movements or tapping), which is associated with a reduction in the vividness and emotion associated with the trauma memories.
EMDR is an extensively researched, effective psychotherapy method proven to help people recover from trauma and symptoms of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. Ongoing research supports positive clinical outcomes, showing EMDR as a helpful treatment for disorders such as anxiety, depression, Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, chronic pain, addictions, and other distressing life experiences (Maxfield, 2019). EMDR has even been superior to Prozac in trauma treatment (Van der Kolk et al., 2007). Shapiro and Forrest (2016) share that EMDR therapists in 130 countries have successfully treated millions.

Transforming Touch Therapy
®
Transforming Touch® is an attachment and regulation focused therapeutic neurophysiological treatment that uses safe, predictable physical contact to create somatic trust.
​
Transforming Touch® is a way to reach early and non-verbal traumas in order to repair a ruptured system. The power of touch helps to soothe the nervous system, restoring a sense of safety and trust in the moment. Subtle repair of early attachment ruptures begins as the body and mind interweave with one another. Transforming Touch® allows and holds space for the client who has experienced developmental trauma to begin to reorganize and re-pattern the early experiences that are held in the physical self that are affecting our intellectual, emotional, and spiritual selves.
​
As the client begins to move towards a new normal, they experience more awareness and balance within their physical, emotional, intellectual, and spiritual self. This reparative work is essential for the client to heal from early ruptures. "Where intention goes, energy flows" is a key principle in Transforming Touch®. The client, their story, and most of all their desire to heal, is central to the work of this modality.
