Providing Individual EMDR Therapy in Greater Orlando & Winter Park, Florida
Find Your Path to Healing
Every person's journey is unique, but there are common struggles that many of my clients face. If you're feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or emotionally exhausted, know that effective options are available to help you heal and move forward.
Research consistently shows that EMDR is one of the most effective therapeutic approaches for helping your mind process and move past traumatic experiences that keep you feeling stuck. This is why I'm passionate about EMDR—it offers real, lasting results.
Here's what makes EMDR different
You don't need to retell your story in painful detail or relive traumatic experiences. Instead, I'll guide you as your mind works to transform these difficult memories. Through our sessions together, traumatic memories that once felt overwhelming become simply memories—without the emotional charge that once disrupted your life.
Below are some of the most common areas I help clients with. If you recognize yourself in any of these experiences, you're not alone, and healing is possible.
Severe Anxiety & Panic Attacks
When anxiety takes over your life, simple daily tasks can feel overwhelming and panic attacks can make you feel like you're losing control or even dying. Traditional talk therapy often focuses on coping strategies, but brain-informed EMDR therapy addresses the root causes and provides immediate relief techniques.
You might be experiencing:
Racing heart, shortness of breath, or feeling like you're having a heart attack during panic episodes
Avoiding situations, places, or people because you're afraid of having a panic attack
Constant worry and "what if" thoughts that keep you awake at night or distract you during the day
Trauma & PTSD
Traumatic experiences can fundamentally change how your brain processes safety, relationships, and daily life. Whether from childhood abuse, accidents, violence, or other overwhelming events, trauma symptoms can interfere with your ability to feel safe and present in your own life.
You might be experiencing:
Flashbacks, nightmares, or intrusive memories that feel as real as when they happened
Feeling disconnected from your body, emotions, or the people you love
Hypervigilance and difficulty relaxing, even in safe environments

Narcissistic Abuse Recovery
Healing from relationships with narcissistic partners, family members, or authority figures requires specialized understanding of manipulation tactics and trauma bonding. The psychological impact of narcissistic abuse often leaves survivors questioning their reality and struggling to trust their own perceptions.
You might be experiencing:
Confusion about what was real versus manipulation, and difficulty trusting your own memory
Feeling like you're walking on eggshells or constantly trying to avoid conflict
Loss of identity and struggling to make decisions without second-guessing yourself
High-Conflict Divorce
Divorce involving a high-conflict partner often feels more like psychological warfare than a legal process. When your ex-spouse uses manipulation, threats, or involves the children, you need specialized support to maintain emotional stability throughout the proceedings.
You might be experiencing:
Panic attacks before court dates or communication with your ex-spouse
Feeling overwhelmed by legal decisions when you're emotionally dysregulated
Worry about how the conflict is affecting your children and your parenting ability
Religious Trauma Recovery
Leaving high-control religious environments often involves grieving not just your faith, but your entire identity, community, and worldview. Religious trauma can create deep shame, fear, and confusion about who you are outside of those belief systems.
You might be experiencing:
Fear of eternal punishment or divine retribution for questioning your beliefs
Loss of community, family relationships, or your entire support system
Struggling to make decisions without religious rules and feeling lost about your identity

High-Profile Professional Support
Executives, medical professionals, and public figures face unique stressors that require specialized therapeutic understanding. The pressure of high-stakes decisions, public scrutiny, and maintaining professional image while dealing with personal struggles creates distinct challenges.
You might be experiencing:
Imposter syndrome and fear that others will discover you're not as capable as they think
Difficulty finding therapists who understand the demands of your career or lifestyle
Concern about confidentiality and the potential impact on your professional reputation
Autoimmune & Health Related Trauma
Chronic illness, autoimmune conditions, and medical trauma create unique psychological challenges that are often overlooked in traditional healthcare. The mind-body connection means that emotional healing can significantly impact your physical wellbeing and quality of life.
You might be experiencing:
Anxiety and depression related to unpredictable symptoms or medical procedures
Grief over the loss of your previous health, abilities, or lifestyle
Feeling misunderstood by others who don't grasp the invisible nature of your condition
