EMDR Intensives
Trauma can be longstanding, from childhood and adolescence, but trauma can also be recent, as we are all recovering from pandemic. With trauma, there are unresolved hurts which is making it difficult to function. Let's focus on helping you heal and see your best self beyond what you are currently experiencing. Let's focus on helping you see your self-worth and encourage you to overcome the worries, the traumas of the past, insecurities and fears that may be keeping you stuck.
EMDR
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing.
EMDR is a psychotherapy treatment designed to alleviate the distress associated with traumatic memories and unhealthy thoughts.
EMDR therapy allows one to access and change deep rooted negative narratives and stories we create. It also allows a person to access traumatic memories and bring them to a more positive resolution.
With EMDR therapy, anxiety and distress is often relieved, negative beliefs are reframed, and physiological responses (fight or flight) are reduced.
EMDR can be conducted online
Walk & Talk Therapy
Eco Therapy is focused on using the power of nature to heal and de-stress. Studies have found that the use of nature can reduce stress and cortisol levels by 40-60%.
By spending time in and with nature, we connect to simplicity and recognizing the need to slow down.
Sessions focus on using nature to heal in a variety of settings in addition to typical office/virtual sessions.

Mindfulness
Mindfulness invites the stress, anxiety and depression to show up so that they can be heard and challenged.
Mindfulness looks at your ruminating thoughts and dysfunctional patterns to see why you continue to engage in unhealthy behavior without judgment.
By helping you learn how to pay attention to your thoughts, judgments and feelings you are better equipped to respond to the world, instead of simply reacting to it.
Sandplay
Sandplay is often used to invite the unconscious to come to the forefront in a non threatening manner.
While you remain in the world of “pretend”, you are able to create metaphors that mirror the present pain or difficulties in your real-life circumstances and help you gain an understanding of your negative self-talk or worldview.
Within a safe space a client can face their pain, their anxiety, and their trauma. Often used for healing trauma because it does not require you to talk about your pain, but rather the play aspect of sand helps you find resolution and ultimately healing.
