GET UNSTUCK IN YOUR RELATIONSHIPS
Have you ever said this to yourself or someone else? “There is a part of me that knows what I need/want, but I can’t seem to take action and I feel stuck" OR “A part of me knows what would make me feel more ___fill in the blank____ , but I keep doing the same thing in my relationships, then feel frustrated.”
If you have said these things and are curious about how to start creating the relationships you really want and moving toward the fulfilling life you deserve, I can help.
As a Certified EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) therapist trained in PARTS WORK, I help people heal from the emotional wounds that are holding them back. Your sense of Self is not a single entity but made up of different parts.
It’s NOT that you don’t have what it takes to be happy or successful. It’s just that a ‘part’(s) is stuck in certain behaviors and beliefs that may have been helpful or adaptive in the past but, now as an adult, are not getting you where you truly want to be. Some habits are really hard to break, but, more importantly, if you have been doing something for almost your entire life, it may be really hard to even identify what exactly is a problem. Together, we can figure that out AND connect to 'parts' that hold the qualities you need to make a positive change.
We can begin with the part of you that is feeling hopeful and determined enough

I don’t tell you what you should do. It is YOUR journey. I DO offer a safe space free of judgement. Together, we can explore and understand your sense of who you are, why you think and feel the way you do, and discover how you can move forward on your personal journey.
“The Only Journey is the One Within” -- Rainer Maria Rilka
