I am a Registered Social Worker with over 20 years of experience. I have been working as an EMDR therapist since 2008. I am both a Certified EMDR Therapist and an EMDR Consultant. I have specialist EMDR training in working with young children. I have operated in private practice for many years, practising EMDR therapy with children, adolescents, and adults. In addition, I have provided EMDR Consultation to many social workers, psychologists, and psychotherapists.
I have extensive experience in working with serving or retired military personnel. As a civilian, I have been with military personnel serving with the UN in Lebanon, Liberia, and Bosnia. I am highly skilled in using EMDR therapy to work with all kinds of trauma that people have experienced through assault, bullying, child abuse, rape, intimate partner violence, road traffic accidents, and other distressing life experiences. I have used EMDR to help lessen, reduce, or eliminate phobias of all kinds, and to relieve symptoms of pain, anxiety, and depression.
I am a member of the EMDR Canada Board of Directors, and previously I have been an EMDR Ireland Board member. In addition, I was central in organizing the Continuing Education of Child and Adolescent EMDR therapists in the UK, while being a member of the EMDR UK Child & Adolescent committee for several years.
My goal is to work with you so that you can recover from what has happened to you, find peace, and get back to living a healthy and happy life again.
