Integrative EMDR Psychotherapy
EMDR
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing Therapy is an evidence based treatment for treating trauma based disorders such as PTSD. It is also effective at creating permanent change for a wide range of life challenges such as low self esteem, relationship difficulties, anxiety, depression, grief, and addictions Learn more about EMDR here.
“Parts Work”
“Part of me feels this way, but part of me feels that way.” Our psyche is multifaceted and exploring our internal world with “parts work” provides a powerful doorway to healing and building self compassion. My approach to parts work is informed by Ego State Therapy, Internal Family Systems, and Structural Dissociation Theory.
Polyvagal Theory Informed Therapy
Understanding nervous system responses such as fight/flight/freeze/fawn can provide an entirely different perspective on symptoms that are often pathologized as “mental illness”. Learning about your unique nervous system responses will empower you to discover tools that help you achieve better self regulation.
Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy
I am trained in Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy and have found it to be a helpful adjunct therapy for those doing EMDR . I can refer you to an in-person provider or support you with at-home ketamine treatments when appropriate. Preparation and integration for KAP or other psychedelic therapies can be incorporated into our sessions and assisted by EMDR.
