Are you ready to heal your anxiety and trauma?
You have been in therapy before and done a good amount of talk therapy. You know what your issues are and have a great deal of knowledge about your wounds and patterns,
But for some reason, you find yourself repeating the same unhelpful behaviors that you’ve done for years. Perhaps, you just can’t stop the negative beliefs you have about yourself, even if you know it’s not true.
You may be judging yourself because you keep being attracted to the certain unhealthy relationships dynamics. Or simply, you are tired of the pain and exhaustion you have been carrying for so long.
Even with all the insights you have gained, you still experience:
Overwhelming emotions
Feeling spaced out on a daily basis
Self doubt and anxiety
Feeling depressed and lacking excitement
Living on autopilot or survival mode
EMDR Therapy in Santa Barbara can help.
It may feel impossible now, but you can heal your trauma and anxiety. You can have wider bandwidth to tolerate stressors. You can manage your emotions, reactions, and thoughts. And I can help you get there.
Identify the cause of your anxiety and trauma experiences.
Learn how to respond to triggers instead of reacting
Help you heal the roots of anxiety and trauma
And finally, experience relief that lasts.
I’ll help you through this process, tailoring each step to your unique needs and circumstances. My approach to EMDR Therapy comes from a place of collaboration and curiosity. Together, we will decide the pace of each session, how deep you want to go, and the goals you wish to achieve. I will make suggestions to help you deepen your process, but I will also respect your readiness to do so. It is important to me that you start to trust yourself more and this process can help you achieve that.
This work is about healing the root causes so as to achieve lasting results.
Based on the latest trauma and neuroscience research, my clinical training is EMDR (Eye Movement and Desensitization and Reprocessing). Research has proven this treatment method to be highly effective with those struggling with trauma and anxiety.
