"The truth is we all suffer at one time or another. Situations arise all the time that affect us negatively. But when we continue to have pain long after the experience itself has passed, it is because the hardwiring of our brains influences our minds."

EMDR Therapy and Therapist Qualifications:


  • EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) is a therapeutic technique that has been utilized since the 1990s.
  • EMDR Therapists have varied levels of expertise. In order of least to most training, these range from EMDR trained, to EMDR Certified, to EMDR Consultant-in-Training, up to EMDR Approved Consultant and/or EMDR Training Provider.
  • I am a Certified EMDR Therapist and Consultant-in-Training to other therapists.
  • I utilize EMDR to assist clients in reducing emotional disturbances that may be based on unprocessed memories from their past.
  • Clients interested in EMDR services will receive an assessment to determine appropriateness for this type of treatment. Several sessions will follow to establish coping skills and historical data to utilize in the treatment process.
  • Clients receiving EMDR meet with me on a weekly basis once EMDR sessions have begun.
  • EMDR treatment often requires fewer sessions than traditional "talk therapy".

Right to Receive a Good Faith Estimate of Expected Charges:

You have the right to receive a “Good Faith Estimate” explaining how much your medical care will cost.

Under the law, health care providers need to give patients who don’t have insurance or who are not using insurance an estimate of the bill for medical items and services.

You have the right to receive a Good Faith Estimate for the total expected cost of any non-emergency items or services. This includes related costs like medical tests, prescription drugs, equipment, and hospital fees.

Make sure your health care provider gives you a Good Faith Estimate in writing at least 1 business day before your medical service or item. You can also ask your health care provider, and any other provider you choose, for a Good Faith Estimate before you schedule an item or service.

If you receive a bill that is at least $400 more than your Good Faith Estimate, you can dispute the bill.

Make sure to save a copy or picture of your Good Faith Estimate.

For questions or more information about your right to a Good Faith Estimate, visit www.cms.gov/nosurprises or call 480-435-1030.
