Licensed Mental Health Counselor, LMHC
Trauma can deeply impact individuals, manifesting in various forms of distress and hindering their ability to lead fulfilling lives. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a therapeutic approach that offers hope and healing for those grappling with traumatic experiences. By engaging in bilateral stimulation, typically through eye movements, taps, or sounds, EMDR helps individuals process distressing memories and reframe negative beliefs associated with the trauma. Through this process, clients can experience a reduction in the emotional intensity of their memories and develop healthier coping mechanisms, empowering them to move forward with resilience and renewed strength. EMDR provides a safe and effective pathway towards healing, allowing individuals to reclaim agency over their lives and restore a sense of balance and well-being.

Psychologist, PSY.D.
An event, that can cause you to fear for your safety or your very life can happen to anyone.
When such an event occurs, we are often so stunned by it, that we think “This isn’t supposed to happen to me or to someone I love. This only happens to other people.”
There are a variety of ways to experience such a trauma: a car accident, sexual assault, robbery, witnessing an illness or death, domestic violence, being a soldier, being left abruptly by your spouse or parents, and experiencing severe weather catastrophes.
Often when this happens, our bodies and minds do predictable things to protect ourselves. These symptoms might seem strange if you have never experienced them before.

Have you experienced a traumatic event? Are you suffering from lingering fear and anxiety? Do you feel like you no longer have any control over how you think, feel and behave?
Posttraumatic stress disorder – also known as PTSD – is a mental health challenge that may occur in individuals who have experienced or witnessed a traumatic event such as a natural disaster, a terrorist act, an act of war, a serious accident, rape, or any other violent personal assault.
It is believed that PTSD affects nearly four percent of the U.S. adult population. While it is usually linked with veterans who’ve experienced combat, PTSD occurs in all people regardless of age, race, nationality or culture. In fact, women are twice as likely to experience PTSD than men.
