Description

I am a EMDR & Trauma specialist and if you notice irritability, anger and nightmares are taking control of your mood, relationships and passions, I can help. What if you could begin living your life for you, with the memories of the past still present but no longer sabotaging your day. I can support you overcome the heavy burden of trauma and increasing hope. I specialize in supporting First Responders and individuals and treat PTSD as a stress injury and not a disorder. I will help you navigate the complex past and lived memories with the goal remembering but without the impact.
