All we have to be in the world is kind and brave. Really. And I believe you can do that. Have you ever felt like you were walking on eggshells in your relationship? Do you feel like no matter what you do it is wrong from your partner's perspective? You shouldn't have to feel like this in your relationship. No one should have to feel afraid of the person they love. If you have begun to feel down on yourself because of the way your partner treats you, I would love to help you grow in understanding of present dynamics and experience relief so that you can move forward with confidence.
Wouldn't it be amazing to be able to look back on past painful experiences and be able to acknowledge that they happened but to not have your body flooded by the memory of that experience? That is what EMDR therapy can provide for you. It really is fast relief!
My therapeutic style is one of directive warmth, looking to utilize the strengths of the client and to empower them to move forward toward hope, freedom and confidence. I hope that my style embodies the very idea of a haven: a place of safety, refuge, or a port from the storm.
