A form of psychotherapy utilized to help individuals cope with the distress associated with various traumatic memories. "After successful treatment with EMDR therapy, affective distress is relieved, negative beliefs are reformulated, and physiological arousal is reduced" (EMDR Institute). EMDR therapy is an eight-phase treatment model. Bilateral stimulation such as eye movements, tapping, or audio are used during part of the session. After the therapist has determined which memory to initially process, she will ask the client to hold specific images of the disturbing event or thought in their mind and to use their eyes (or other bilateral stimulation) to track the therapist’s hand as it moves back and forth across the client’s field of vision resembling REM sleep. I have specific training in how to integrate EMDR in the perinatal period to help treat postpartum depression , anxiety, birth trauma and childhood trauma resurfacing during the perinatal period.

"Where you look, affects how you feel" - Dr. David Grand. Brainspotting is a therapeutic tool that helps individuals access unprocessed trauma in the brain. With the help of Brainspotting the therapist will locate, focus, process and release a range of physical and emotional symptoms. BSP is heavily weighted on dual attunement between the therapist and client. Please visit https://brainspotting.com/ for more information.
"Somatic Experiencing is a body-oriented modality that helps heal trauma and other stress disorders. Developed by Peter Levine, Ph.D., it is the result of the multidisciplinary study of stress physiology, psychology, ethology, biology, neuroscience, indigenous healing practices, and medical biophysics, with more than 45 years of successful application" (SEI Website). It is a body oriented approach to help with the healing PTSD and trauma. It helps move from a state of feeling "stuck" from various trauma responses such as "fight, flight, freeze or fawn." Somatic Experiencing can help you understand and release sensations in the body that was created by trauma through the use of various techniques and skills.

This is not your typical talk therapy session. During these sessions I will provide you with an authentic and comfortable space to process the daily struggles and stressors you are experiencing. I practice from a holistic, ancestral, social justice and decolonized lens. Where we will also examine how systems of oppression have affected your mental health. If you need music, meditation, sunlight, movement we can get creative and incorporate this when appropriate.
