About MindSpring EMDR, PLLC
My Philosophy
My trauma treatment philosophy is grounded in the understanding that traumatic experiences can have a profound and lasting impact on an individual's mental, emotional, and physical well-being. It emphasizes the importance of providing a comforting and supportive environment where individuals can explore and process childhood/developmental trauma (C-PTSD) and adult onset trauma (PTSD). Overall, my philosophy underscores the importance of fostering resilience, post-traumatic growth, and a sense of empowerment in those who have experienced trauma, ultimately aiming to help individuals regain a sense of control over their lives and move toward healing and recovery.

My Approach
I incorporate a client-centered and strengths-based approach, where each individual's autonomy and empowerment are central to the healing process. I want to give my clients a sense of control that perhaps they've never had. My counseling approach is all-encompassing, addressing both mental and physical aspects of wellbeing, while nurturing a unified sense of self.
Trauma treatment also recognizes that there is no one-size-fits-all approach, and therapies may range from traditional talk therapy to more somatic, holistic and creative modalities. I primarily utilize EMDR and Ego state modalities (parts work), heavily influenced by Neuroscience, Polyvagal and Attachment theories, as well as Energy Psychology.
