Accessible Online Psychotherapy and EMDR Therapy
If you’re feeling overwhelmed by stress or stuck in negative thoughts, Online Psychotherapy and EMDR Therapy offer support that is accessible from anywhere. Perhaps you’re finding it hard to get through the day, feeling disconnected from yourself or others, and unsure how to break free from these struggles. Whether you’re dealing with anxiety, depression, grief, stress, or simply feeling lost, reaching out shows your strength and determination to find a better path. After all, taking the first step can often be the hardest part.
Please know that you don’t have to face this alone. Trauma-Informed Psychotherapy and EMDR Therapy are evidence-based approaches that can help you feel better and reclaim your life. In essence, you deserve to feel understood and supported. Together, we’ll explore your experience to find the best way forward.
Services I Provide:
Feeling Stuck, Disconnected, or Overwhelmed
As a therapist, I am trained to work safely with many aspects of human suffering, including anxiety, depression, bereavement, and trauma. However, over time, I have found that I can make the biggest difference for people dealing with:
- Chronic Shame & Self-Doubt: Those who struggle to trust themselves or others, often feeling disconnected or emotionally distant.
- Workplace Stress & Burnout: Individuals in demanding roles or creative fields who feel emotionally drained, exhausted, or like they are constantly pushing through.
- Neurodivergent Experiences: People exploring an autism or ADHD diagnosis, or those who have long felt different but haven’t had the space to fully understand themselves.
- The Weight of Trauma: Whether it’s a recent event or a long-standing history of trauma, I offer support in making sense of difficult experiences without feeling overwhelmed.
- Identity & Belonging: Those questioning who they are, particularly LGBTQ+ folks or those going through major life transitions who feel disconnected from a sense of belonging.
If any of this resonates with you, therapy can offer a space to explore, process, and move forward in a way that feels safe and manageable. Learn more about the services I provide.
