Trauma isn’t what happened to you. It’s what your nervous system is still doing about it.

Intrusive memories, nightmares, feeling constantly on guard, avoiding reminders, numbness toward people you love — these are not character flaws. They are a nervous system doing its protective job long after the danger has passed. They are also treatable.

I am EMDR trained (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) — one of the most extensively researched treatments for trauma and PTSD, recommended by the World Health Organization and the American Psychological Association. EMDR helps the brain reprocess traumatic memories so they lose their present-tense grip — you remember what happened without reliving it.

As a clinical psychologist with 14 years of experience, I integrate EMDR with psychodynamic work, because trauma rarely exists in isolation: it shapes relationships, self-worth, and how safe the world feels. Single-incident trauma, cumulative occupational trauma, and older wounds that still organize your life are all within the scope of this work.

We move at your pace. Effective trauma treatment never requires you to be flooded by the very thing you came to resolve.
