About Me
You grew up knowing that doing well was never something to be proud of. It was expected. You've done therapy, read the books, and can explain your patterns better than most people can explain theirs. None of it reaches the part that's still reacting. You still lie awake replaying a conversation from Tuesday. You still reread the email four times before sending it. You still get off the phone with your mother and lose the whole evening. On paper, you're doing well and people tell you so, and none of it sticks. If you're the child of immigrants and you're tired of understanding something that hasn't changed, you're in the right place.
I use EMDR and Accelerated Resolution Therapy to reach what your body is still holding, not just what you already understand about it. Neither requires you to talk through the details, and there's no homework. I'm also the child of immigrants, and I know what it’s like to explain your own patterns perfectly while nothing moves.
Reach out for a free 15-minute consultation, and I'll get back to you within 24 hours. If I'm not the right fit, I'll help you find someone else who is. Coming in doesn't mean the work you already did failed, and you don't have to start over. We build on what you've done. Let's get you to the part where it stops running things.
