Individual Trauma Therapy

You’ve tried to get past it, forget about it, told yourself it “wasn’t a big deal”, but you’re in pain. Maybe you notice feeling scared and mistrusting of others, having mood swings, or feeling down about yourself. Trauma can take many different forms, so often we don’t realize what we’ve gone through until we unpack it with someone safe. I can be that person for you.

 EMDR

(Eye-Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy)

I use EMDR in conjunction with other therapeutic modalities, for some individual clients. Yes, this can be done virtually! If you are interested in EMDR Therapy, we can discuss whether it would be a good fit for you.

 Post-Abortion Support

Having an abortion does not cause mental health issues, but the stigma of having an abortion can have a negative impact on our lives.

There is no ‘right way’ to feel after an abortion. Maybe there is relief, grief, pain, loneliness, anger, happiness. Everything is welcome in our sessions and I am here to support you, regardless of whether this was an easy or difficult journey for you.

  • In very general terms, I mean anyone who has experienced harm in any sexual manner or within a relationship. This could be sexual assault, rape, incest, childhood sexual abuse, sexual exploitation, and emotional, physical, economic, psychological abuse by a partner. Unfortunately, these experiences come in many shapes and sizes and this list is not exhaustive.

  • YES, I see clients outside of this specialty often. Even if you feel like this does not apply to you, that is ok and I am happy to discuss what you would like to work on in session.

  • EMDR is Eye-Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy. You know how your eyes move back and forth when you’re in deep REM sleep? Turns out that those eye movements are actually really important for the extremely necessary benefits that sleep gives us–learning, integrating memories, processing events and emotions, and so much more. Francine Shapiro (founder of EMDR) discovered that we can mimic these benefits while we are awake (!) and use them to help heal traumatic memories. You can find more information here, and if you are interested in EMDR we will definitely discuss more.

  • Each session you will get a secure link emailed or texted to you. A strong wifi connection and a private space is necessary. Other than that, virtual therapy is pretty much the same as in-person therapy! Clients have told me that they find video sessions user-friendly and more convenient.
