I understand what it feels like to smile when you’re crumbling, to carry on while quietly reliving moments you wish you could forget.
This space was created for you. You don’t have to explain why it still hurts. You don’t have to prove that it was traumatic. If it felt like too much, then it was too much.
Whether your trauma stems from birth, medical experiences, or emotional wounds you can’t name but still feel, I see you.
For over 20 years, I’ve walked alongside women who feel broken by trauma, but who are anything but broken.
My own experience with birth trauma and postpartum recovery gave me more than empathy. It gave me a calling. Today, I help clients reprocess the past using EMDR Intensives so they can reclaim calm, clarity, and confidence in their bodies and their lives.
As a certified EMDR and Perinatal Mental Health Professional who is also trained in FLASH, I specialize in birth trauma, medical trauma, and complex emotional wounds.
You don’t need to minimize what you’ve been through. If it felt like too much, it was. And healing is possible.

"Talk therapy is like going from problem to solution using a bike.
EMDR is like going from problem to solution using a race car."
EMDR Intensives are ideal for anyone ready for relief now. If you’re feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or want support with a specific trauma, stressor, or life transition, this immersive approach may be exactly what you need.
Who is this for?
An EMDR Therapy Intensive is an accelerated healing experience. Instead of weekly 50-minute sessions, you’ll spend extended, focused time reprocessing trauma—so you can feel better faster and skip months of traditional therapy.
What is an EMDR Intensive?
Yes. EMDR Intensives work beautifully as adjunct therapy. With your permission, I’ll collaborate with your primary therapist to support your healing from every angle.
Can I do an EMDR Intensive if I already have a therapist?
In a standard session, much of the time is spent checking in and winding down. Intensives allow for uninterrupted depth work—often equivalent to a month of therapy in one day.
Why choose an intensive instead of regular therapy?
No, intensives are a specialized service and not covered by insurance. However, medical debit cards are accepted, and we’ll walk through all options together.
Does insurance cover this?
You don’t need to be in crisis to benefit from an EMDR Intensive. If you're functioning on the outside but struggling internally, feeling stuck, exhausted, anxious, or haunted by past experiences, this work can help.
