EMDR Resources
As a Certified EMDR Therapist and EMDRIA Approved Consultant, I believe that providing our clients and fellow EMDR professionals with the resources available is key to promoting growth and healing. That's why we have created a section dedicated to recommended readings, videos, and information on EMDR therapy, Polyvagal Theory, Trauma-informed yoga, and Somatic Therapy. My hope is that these resources will help you better understand and engage with these topics.

I believe that knowledge is power when it comes to healing. That's why I've put together a list of recommended readings for our clients, focused on trauma, yoga, learning about your nervous system, parts work, and trauma.

These approaches can play a key role in helping you overcome trauma and achieve emotional well-being.
