How I Can Help
I became a therapist because I was once stuck and a therapist helped me to understand what was preventing me from moving forward. Now, it is my joy to help others in the same way. I am a certified EMDR trauma therapist, and I also use DBT, CBT, narrative and transpersonal principles in my work. I specialize in attachment and relationship issues, eating disorders, addictions, trauma, depression and existential crisis. Our work will be collaborative, strength-focused and individualized to your needs. Call or email anytime for a free consultation. Wishing you wellness always, Dr. Holly
