I am a certified EMDR therapist and an EMDR consultant since 2020. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is effective in processing both recent trauma and for those experiencing the effects of childhood trauma. Such long-term effects can be nightmares, intrusive memories, over-reactivity to circumstances, or fear of trusting others. Below are some videos to help you understand what EMDR is and how this treatment approach may benefit you.

I am also trained in a variety of ego state modalities, IFS (Internal Family Systems) as well as DNMS (Developmental Needs Meeting Strategy). These therapeutic styles highlight the collaborative nature of your inner system, getting to know what the needs and jobs are of your parts, and helping to get healing from the pain that is being stored.

I am a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist in Tennessee.  My license number is 1154.
