About

Now offering EMDR therapy via Telehealth to South Carolina residents. "In-person" and Telehealth services are available to North Carolina residents. Are you feeling frustrated, stuck, or unsure how to proceed with coping with emotional distress and/or chronic health conditions? Have you had an experience which affects your health, wellbeing, or career? Do you perceive this event or condition interferes with the quality of your life and relationships? What would it be like to experience relief and change? As an Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing ("EMDR") trained clinician, I will help you alleviate emotional distress and physical symptoms related to current situations, medical conditions, and past events. I offer 90 minute EMDR therapy sessions 1-3x/week to assist you in resolving distress so you may show up as your best self every day. The intensive model allows you to resolve your emotional distress over a shorter span of time and is especially beneficial for those who can't attend once-a-week therapy for months. EMDR intensives are available to support you during times you need help the most. EMDR therapy may be used as your primary therapy or as an adjunct therapy should you already be engaged in counseling. EMDR therapy does not require talking in detail about the distressing issue or completing homework between sessions. Further, rather than focusing on changing the emotions, thoughts, or behaviors resulting from the distressing issue, EMDR allows your brain to resume its natural healing process. Together we will pursue a reduction in your symptoms by creating an EMDR therapy treatment plan based upon what is important to you. Some symptoms and conditions for which EMDR may be effective include: Anxiety Distressing memories Stress responses Adult children of emotionally immature parents Perfectionism Vicarious trauma related to career experiences Emotional distress Somatic issues/chronic illness People pleasing Sense of helplessness "Triggers"
