EMDR THERAPY

EMDR Therapist in Florida

I use EMDR to help the brain process painful memories so they lose their intensity. I bring it into couples work when old wounds or a betrayal keep pulling a relationship back into pain, and I also offer it to individuals. The World Health Organization’s 2013 guidelines include EMDR among the therapies recommended for adults with PTSD.

Why Attachment-Based Couples Therapy Works

Humans are wired to need a few people we can count on. When that connection feels threatened, our nervous system reacts, sometimes by chasing, sometimes by shutting down. That is biology, not a character flaw, and it can change.

Emotionally Focused Therapy has some of the strongest research behind it in the field. A meta-analysis found that 70 to 73% of couples recover from relationship distress through EFT (Johnson et al., 1999), and in a study that followed 32 couples for two years, relationship satisfaction and secure attachment gains continued through the 24-month follow-up (Wiebe et al., 2017).

What I love most about this work is watching couples who thought it was too late realize they can find their way back to each other.

I am a licensed marriage and family therapist, and I help individuals, couples, and families break generational patterns so they can build the lives they have imagined but have not been able to create on their own. My work is grounded in Emotionally Focused Therapy and EMDR. I am especially passionate about offering affirming, celebratory care for LGBTQIA+ and queer clients.

Couples Therapist in Boca Raton and Online Across Florida and Texas

Most of my sessions are online through a secure, HIPAA-compliant platform, so you can do this work from home anywhere in Florida and Texas. For South Florida couples who prefer to be in the room together, I offer in-person couples therapy in Boca Raton upon request. I also work with couples in Fort Lauderdale, Miami, and Houston.
