All of a sudden you remember, that thing that is important to do, that you have yet to do...That you don’t really want to do. If only you could put it off your head. So you keep yourself busy to avoid doing it. But the more you do this the worst you feel. Why can’t you just make yourself do it! And just like that you’re on edge again. Then the negative thoughts come: “I cannot fail” “What is wrong with me”. The more you think about it, the worst it gets, the worst you feel....

I use powerful treatments such as EMDR and IFS Therapy to help teens, young adults, and adults suffering from low self-esteem, anxiety, shame, and depression get to the root causes of their symptoms and heal deep wounds so that they can flourish and live authentic lives. This is not about learning coping skills; it’s about connecting back to yourself.

In our work together we will identify the beliefs, and behaviors that are no longer working. We’ll get to the root of your painful memories, or the events that caused them, shifting the way they affect you. Together we’ll work to release the shame, low self esteem, anxiety, and negative views that have been keeping you stuck. Welcome Back home to yourself.
