About
With each session showing measurable change which improves mood, decreases anxiety, decreases obsessive thinking, decreases triggers and cravings relating to any dysfunctional behavior and thinking pattern.
“But it is not what I am saying that is hurting you; it is that you have wounds that I touch by what I have said. You are hurting yourself. There is no way I can take this personally.” ― Miguel Ruiz
“Whenever we hear an opinion and believe it, we make an agreement, and it becomes part of our belief system.” ― Miguel Ruiz
This approach is very different then any other you have experience in the past with results driven research driving success. We do not want you to be in therapy for long as we want your life to improve so you can move on and achieve your goals.
You don't have to go it alone. When you're having a rough time in your life you sometimes need someone who can help you work through it. We all, at some point, find ourselves in emotionally difficult situations that we don't understand. We feel lost. The patience and subtle skills of an experienced therapist can help you understand things from a new perspective and help you accept and appreciate yourself in a new, more functional way.
Could EMDR help me? A growing body of evidence is showing that many psychological conditions, including depression, often start with a stressful or traumatic experience. We are finding that EMDR Therapy with a Certified EMDR therapist can help significantly with symptoms of PTSD, phobias, depression, anxiety, panic, early and complex adverse experiences in childhood, and much more. It also has a strong track record for performance enhancement in a wide variety of fields -- school, work, business, sales, sports, the arts, and that Most Popular Fear of All Time: public speaking.

“If others tell us something we make assumptions, and if they don’t tell us something we make assumptions to fulfill our need to know and to replace the need to communicate. Even if we hear something and we don’t understand we make assumptions about what it means and then believe the assumptions. We make all sorts of assumptions because we don’t have the courage to ask questions.” ―Miguel Ruiz
