If you are feeling overwhelmed, anxious, stuck in old patterns, or carrying the weight of past experiences, you don’t have to navigate it alone. I provide culturally responsive, trauma-informed therapy for Women of Color across California, with in-person sessions in the Bay Area and virtual therapy statewide. Together, we create a space where you feel safe, seen, and supported as you heal anxiety, process trauma, and reconnect with your strength.

EMDR Therapy (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing)

EMDR is a highly effective, evidence-based therapy for trauma and anxiety. It helps your brain reprocess distressing memories so they no longer feel overwhelming or intrusive.

EMDR blends traditional talk therapy with gentle bilateral stimulation to help your nervous system integrate difficult experiences and reduce emotional intensity.

EMDR Can Help With:

  • Complex trauma

  • PTSD

  • General and social anxiety

  • Panic attacks

  • Disturbing or intrusive memories

  • Grief and loss

  • Negative thinking patterns

  • Recurring self-defeating behaviors

  • Life transitions

EMDR can be especially powerful if you feel like you understand your patterns intellectually but still feel emotionally stuck.
