I have recently integrated Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) into my therapy practice. This innovative approach has allowed me to better address trauma and anxiety in my clients by facilitating the processing of distressing memories and reducing their lingering effects. Incorporating EMDR has not only enhanced the efficacy of my treatment plans but also provided my clients with a powerful tool for healing and personal growth.

In my therapy practice, I use attachment theory to help clients understand the impact of early relationships on their current behavior and emotional well-being. By exploring patterns of attachment, I assist clients in recognizing how their formative experiences shape their interactions and responses in the present. My personal experience with attachment theory has deepened my empathy and insight, enabling me to guide clients more effectively toward secure and fulfilling relationships.

In my practice, I incorporate animal-assisted therapy to enhance the therapeutic experience for my clients. I have two small dogs that I have used in school settings, witnessing firsthand how their presence provides immense comfort to students. These therapy dogs help create a calming and supportive environment, fostering emotional well-being and facilitating more open and effective communication.

In my practice, I address family conflict by helping clients navigate and resolve disputes, fostering healthier communication and relationships. By working on improving family dynamics, we can reduce sources of tension and stress, which ultimately decreases depression and anxiety. This approach not only strengthens family bonds but also promotes overall mental and emotional well-being.

In my therapy practice, I incorporate parenting techniques and insights to support clients dealing with family dynamics and child-rearing challenges. As a parent to nine children, I bring a wealth of personal experience to the table, particularly in areas such as foster care, adoption, attachment issues, and behavior management. This background allows me to offer practical, empathetic guidance and strategies that resonate deeply with parents and families navigating similar challenges.

In my therapy practice, I address relationship issues by fostering communication and understanding between you and those you interface with. This can include exploring attachment styles, trauma history, identifying and breaking negative patterns, and developing conflict resolution skills. By addressing these aspects, I help clients build stronger, healthier relationships, ultimately enhancing their overall emotional well-being.
