About Me
EMDR Therapy in Billings to Help You Feel Calm, Clear, and Like Yourself Again
If you’ve been carrying the weight of trauma, anxiety, chronic stress, or loss—and it still feels unresolved despite your efforts—you’re not alone. Many people I work with feel overwhelmed, on edge, or stuck in patterns that don’t fully make sense, even when they understand their experiences. I provide EMDR therapy in Billings, Montana for adults experiencing trauma, anxiety, and feeling stuck.
I specialize in EMDR therapy to help your brain and nervous system process what’s been holding you back so it no longer feels as intense or disruptive. This work goes beyond insight and coping, allowing for deeper, lasting change.
I work with adults experiencing trauma, anxiety, and the impact of stressful or overwhelming life events, including those in high-stress roles such as healthcare, first response, and helping professions.
Education & Experience
With over 20 years of experience in both correctional and community mental health settings, I bring a depth of clinical experience working with trauma, stress, and complex life experiences.
My work is grounded in EMDR therapy, an evidence-based approach that supports the brain and body in processing distressing experiences and restoring a sense of balance and stability.
I have advanced training in EMDR, including Attachment-Focused EMDR, DeTUR, and Connecting the Consequences protocols, and I integrate these approaches to meet each client’s unique needs. I offer both standard EMDR sessions and EMDR Intensives for those seeking more focused, accelerated progress.
