Founder

Hello and welcome,

I'm so glad you’re here. My counseling approach is deeply rooted in understanding family systems, and how your upbringing and early relationships, along with past traumas, play a role in your present life. It's crucial for me to understand what you've been through to see how best I can support you. I employ a trauma-informed perspective, helping you work through the memories that weigh heavily on you. Often, these memories are tied to emotions and feelings that have been suppressed for a long time. While pushing these feelings away might have once served as a survival tactic, it might not be as effective now, often casting a shadow that follows you day by day. I get it—I've been there myself.

When you're ready to start the healing process, I'll be right here, ready to start on this journey with you. My aim is for you to feel whole, grounded, and connected. By integrating inner child work and cutting-edge neuroscience, we explore your autonomic nervous system and strive for lasting neurological changes through a somatic-based therapy model known as EMDR therapy. EMDR stands on the forefront of brain science, helping to deeply process memories and emotions, facilitating the healing of trauma.

Finding the Right Therapist-Client Fit:

Choosing the right therapist is crucial. I offer a complimentary 15-minute phone consultation to explore whether we might be a good match. It takes bravery to seek help, and I see it as a privilege to accompany you on your path to healing and change, empowering you to fulfill your hopes and dreams.

Remember, sometimes reaching out and taking someone's hand is the start of a journey. Other times, it's about letting someone else take yours. - Vera Nazrian
