EMDR Therapists in Arlington, VT

Psychotherapy is a lifelong arduous learning and self exploration process that will improve the quality of life. I approach therapy with genuineness, unconditional positive regard, accurate empathy, and respect. I will competently employ techniques in which I have received training to assist you in reaching your goals. Technics I may use are EMDR, hypnosis, confrontation, desensitization, homework, humor, imagery, 'I' statements, modeling, psychodrama, journal writing and role-playing. If through the course of psychotherapy an acceptable degree of progress is not reached, I will refer you to another licensed professional.

No two people experience trauma, stress, anxiety, or depression the same way, and therapy isn't "one size fits all". Everyone has their own diverse experiences that impact their worldview and perception of self, and everyone's path to healing is unique. If you're looking for a therapist who understands that and welcomes a collaborative approach to healing, we might be a good fit!

I take a nonjudgmental, biopsychosocial approach with each client in order to address all components that could be leading to discomfort, dysfunction, or need for support in any area of life. Through various somatic trainings, and personal experience in utilizing these modalities over the last decade, my goal as a therapist is to offer compassionate understanding, as well as share with you the various tools that I've acquired along the way to support you in your self-regulation, healing, growth, and empowerment. I am trained in EMDR, Sand Play Therapy, DIR, Trauma-Informed Yoga, and meditations for brain health.

I embrace a very holistic approach to working with people, which encompasses exploring all aspects of our selves. Emotional, behavioral, biological/physical/medical, social, and spiritual factors all shape our experiences, and each provide opportunities and avenues for change when we desire that to happen.

I offer clients a calm, compassionate presence, providing practical tools to navigate life's inevitable challenges. Therapy provides a safe, supportive space for growth, healing, and discovery. Drawing from the latest research in neuroscience, attachment theory, mindfulness, and cognitive behavioral therapy, I customize treatment according to your goals. Enhanced happiness is not just a wishful goal. Current research concludes that 40 percent of an individual's happiness is based on choices, attitudes and ways of thinking/behaving. My intention is to enhance your well-being, freedom and capacity to be present for your life.
