Trauma & EMDR Therapy in California & Texas

Nervous System–Informed Care for Lasting Change

You don’t always call it trauma.

Sometimes it feels like anxiety that won’t turn off. Tension that lives in your body. Overthinking every conversation. Reacting in ways you don’t understand — even when you “know better.”

Trauma does not only live in memory. It lives in the nervous system.

I am a licensed therapist serving California and Texas, providing secure telehealth across both states as an EMDR-trained trauma specialist. My work focuses on helping high-functioning adults move beyond coping and into meaningful integration.

If insight alone hasn’t shifted your patterns, you’re not broken. Your system may still be protecting you.

When Trauma Is Still Active

You may notice:

  • Triggers that feel disproportionate to the moment

  • Anxiety or panic that appears unexpectedly

  • Emotional numbness or disconnection

  • Difficulty trusting or relaxing in relationships

  • Chronic tension or hypervigilance

  • Knowing why you feel the way you do — but still not being able to change it

These are nervous system adaptations.
And they can be gently reprocessed.

Trauma & EMDR Therapy

EMDR therapy helps the brain reprocess experiences that remain stored in an activated state. Instead of managing symptoms indefinitely, we work toward integration.

Our approach prioritizes:

  • Stabilization before processing

  • Structured pacing

  • Nervous system regulation

  • Attachment-informed care

  • Sustainable integration

Trauma therapy is collaborative and intentional. Processing begins only when your system is ready.

Serving clients across California and Texas via telehealth.

EMDR Intensives

When Weekly Therapy Isn’t Enough

For some clients, 50-minute sessions feel fragmented — especially during deeper trauma work.

EMDR Intensives provide:

  • Extended, uninterrupted processing time

  • Focused momentum

  • Structured preparation and integration

  • Reduced start-and-stop activation

Intensives are carefully assessed and available after intake.

Advanced Trauma Treatment Options

  • For appropriate clients, we also offer:

    Ketamine-Assisted Psychotherapy (KAP)

    In partnership with Journey Clinical, KAP combines psychotherapy with medical oversight to support individuals experiencing treatment-resistant depression, chronic trauma symptoms, or emotional rigidity.

    Preparation and integration are always part of the process.

Additional Services

We also provide:

  • Individual Therapy

  • Couples Therapy

  • Family Therapy

  • Child & Adolescent Therapy

  • Group Therapy

  • Secure Virtual Care

All services begin with a structured intake session to ensure readiness and appropriate pacing.

A Resource for Clinicians

Split by Trauma is a clinically grounded guide for therapists working with complex trauma and dissociation. It reframes fragmentation as adaptation and centers safety, pacing, and ethical care.

What You Can Expect

Your first step is a structured intake session.

We assess:

  • Clinical history

  • Current nervous system patterns

  • Readiness for EMDR

  • Whether weekly sessions or intensives are appropriate

This is not rushed therapy.
It is thoughtful, paced, and aligned with your system.
