Areas of Specialized Training
ImTT
ImTT stands for Image Transformation Therapy. It is a breakthrough in the treatment of trauma, OCD, anxiety, depression, behavioral and substance addictions! ImTT is a gentle therapy that releases the pain, fear, guilt and shame, of trauma and other experiences, without the client needing to intensely experience the feelings. An important advantage to ImTT is that it works more quickly than traditional therapy.
EMDR
EMDR stands for Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing. EMDR uses bilateral stimulation to repeatedly activate both sides of the brain, releasing emotional experiences that are trapped in the nervous system. EMDR is extremely effective for the treatment of all types of trauma.
Christian Counseling
For those clients who are seeking to integrate Christianity into their therapy, I provide Christian Counseling. I have extensive training through my schooling at Simpson University, where I studied Theology as well as the Integration of Christianity and Psychology. I am also trained in several other techniques which integrate Christianity and therapy including:
Listening Prayer
Sozo Prayer
Theophostic Prayer
HeartSync Prayer
My Approach
I am passionate about therapy that produces lasting inner healing! I am committed to providing a safe atmosphere where you no longer have to hold it all inside or hold it all together. Therapy is a unique journey in which you can explore and identify the reasons you feel stuck, overwhelmed or exhausted. Therapy can bring deep, inner healing, putting an end to trying harder or “white knuckling” through and producing instead peace, hope and wholeness in the deepest recesses of your heart and mind!
I use a combination of several psychological theories (see list below), to help clients experience healing and change in the places where their pain originated. I love what I do and look forward to connecting with you in your journey toward emotional wholeness!
