I believe in the unique one on one counseling therapeutic process.  I encourage my clients to look towards a more positive future and learn coping mechanisms to assist with their difficulties.

When a disturbing event occurs, it can get locked in the brain with the images, sounds, thoughts, feelings and body sensations. EMDR seems to stimulate the information and allows the brain to process the experience. It is your own brain that will be doing the healing and you are the one in control.

I have been trained in PTSD and have worked extensively with clients dealing with stress and trauma in their history.

I have worked in the substance abuse field for 30 years and love the work that I do.  I am in long term recovery myself so I have a certain level of understanding and compassion.   I also have counseling experience in other addictions such as food, gambling and sex/porn.

I encourage the practice of mindfulness and simple meditation which I will practice with my clients and teach and go through coping mechanisms for anxiety to help better their lives.
