About Me
About Me
I specialize in chronic pain, anxiety, and nervous system dysregulation — helping clients whose bodies are stuck in protection mode finally find relief.
My path to this work is personal. I spent five years navigating my own chronic pain, worked with twelve kinds of specialists before discovering that addressing my nervous system was the missing piece. That journey shapes everything about how I work with clients today.
I integrate EMDR with Pain Reprocessing Therapy (PRT) and parts-based approaches, including IFS-informed EMDR and Ego State Therapy. This combination is particularly effective for clients with chronic pain, medical trauma, fear of movement, and complex presentations where trauma and somatic symptoms intersect.
My EMDR training includes the Flash Technique, EMDR-PRECI and EMDR-ASSYST protocols for recent trauma, and specialized work with dissociation and complex trauma. I offer both standard sessions and EMDR intensives (3-hour and 6-hour formats) for clients who want deeper, accelerated processing.
I also provide EMDR consultation for therapists working toward EMDRIA certification or seeking ongoing case support.
Sessions available in English and Mandarin (普通话). Telehealth only — serving clients throughout Florida and Pennsylvania.
