EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing)
About
I have always gone to church growing up, however I didn’t really have that intimate relationship with God until I struggled with things personally in high school. During those struggles is when I realized I can’t do life alone and need my Lord and Savior to help guide me and to pull strength from when I didn’t feel like I had any. My favorite bible verse that I find myself always going to is “I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me” (Philippians 4:13) My own journey taught me that God often heals us through the care of others and the hard, sacred work of therapy. I count it a privilege to create space where faith and healing meet.
-“He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds.”-Psalm 147:3
I work best with Christians who feel stuck between their faith and their mental health, who’ve been told to “just pray more” but know there’s deeper work to be done. If you want a therapist who takes both scripture and psychology seriously, who won’t reduce your struggles to a spiritual problem or ignore your soul in this process, please reach out and let’s chat.
