While talk therapy can be helpful, many people find it doesn’t fully resolve deeper struggles. I specialize in experiential methods that go beyond talk. These evidence-based approaches engage mind, body, and emotions to uncover core issues and heal them at the source.
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR)
EMDR is one of the most researched trauma therapies, recommended by the World Health Organization and the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs as a frontline treatment for PTSD and trauma recovery. Unlike traditional talk therapy, EMDR doesn’t require retelling painful experiences in detail. Instead, it uses guided eye movements to work directly with how traumatic memories are stored in the brain—often reducing symptoms more efficiently and with longer-lasting results.
Somatic Therapy
Emotions live in the body as well as the mind. Somatic therapy engages the body’s innate intelligence as an essential source of healing. This approach reduces the risk of retraumatization and provides a safer, more intuitive way of processing post-traumatic stress and unresolved emotional pain. Clients gain practical skills for nervous system regulation, improving resilience, and feeling more grounded and at ease in daily life.
Internal Family Systems (IFS)
IFS is an innovative method that views symptoms as protective parts of our personality—parts that developed to keep us safe. Through this non-pathologizing approach, clients learn to understand and release internal patterns that no longer serve them. Research shows IFS is effective across a wide range of challenges, including anxiety, depression, addictions, and relationship struggles.
