Sometimes the past still feels present.
Bilingual EMDR therapy for adults, online – with a therapist who'll meet you where you are. Licensed in Washington, DC, and the states of Oregon, Washington, and Maryland. In-network with Aetna, BlueCross BlueShield, Moda Health, Optum, Regence, and UnitedHealthcare.
No pressure. We meet, you tell me what brings you here, and you decide what feels right next.
Who I work with
Adults 25 and older who are doing real life – and who carry something the body still hasn't put down. Many of the people I work with arrived feeling stuck, on alert, or weighed down by something that doesn't loosen its grip. What you're carrying may have started in childhood, in an attachment that didn't feel safe, in repeated experiences that were never named. It may have started with one event that broke something. It may be the slow accumulation of being rejected, unseen, or asked to be less than you are – because of your culture, your sexuality, your body, your beliefs.
What you're feeling now is not a flaw in your character. It's a nervous system that learned how to keep you safe, and is still trying.
Sessions are available in English and Spanish.
How EMDR works (in 60 seconds)
EMDR is not talk therapy in the usual sense. We talk to understand what you need; the change happens when your nervous system gets to reprocess what it couldn't process at the time.
We use bilateral stimulation – small eye movements, gentle tapping on knees or shoulders, or small handheld buzzers – to help your brain hold the past and the present at the same time. Over time, the past stops feeling like it is happening now.
You set the pace. We build skills and a sense of safety first. Trauma reprocessing comes only when you are ready.

A 15-minute call is a low-stakes first step.
There is no agenda for our first call. We meet, you tell me what brings you here, and I tell you whether I think EMDR is the right fit. If we're a fit, we'll schedule a first session. If not, I'll point you toward what might be.
