Meet Faith
Your Support Through EMDR
I approach EMDR consultation with warmth, curiosity, and deep respect for both the clinician and client process. My consultation style balances fidelity to the EMDR model with thoughtful flexibility, supporting therapists in growing their confidence, clinical attunement, and trust in their own therapeutic instincts. Drawing from experience across higher levels of care and private practice settings, I enjoy helping clinicians navigate complex cases while staying grounded in the heart of EMDR work: helping clients move toward meaningful healing and integration.

Developing Confidence & Presence
My hope is to help clinicians move beyond simply “doing the protocol” and toward developing confidence in their own clinical instincts and presence within the work. EMDR is not meant to feel rigid or performative. Over time, I want consultees to feel more connected to the flow of the process, more trusting of their ability to navigate complexity, and more equipped to remain grounded when clients present with blocks, dissociation, preverbal trauma, or ongoing traumatic experiences.
Fidelity & Flexibility
What I hope to impart through consultation is a way of practicing EMDR that is both grounded and deeply human. While I value fidelity to the Standard Protocol and remaining well-rooted in the 8 phases, I also view EMDR as an artful and collaborative process that requires curiosity, flexibility, and attunement to the unique needs of each client.
Growth & Collaboration
I strive to create a consultation space that feels supportive, thoughtful, and collaborative. Consultation can feel intimidating, especially when clinicians are carrying difficult cases or questioning whether they are “doing it right.” My goal is not perfection, but growth. I want therapists to feel safe bringing uncertainty, curiosity, and questions into the room so that consultation becomes a space for learning rather than performance.
Relationship: The Heart of the Work
I also hope to impart the importance of staying connected to the person behind the diagnosis or presenting concern. EMDR is a powerful modality, but at the heart of the work is still relationship, safety, and attunement. I believe meaningful shifts happen when clinicians learn how to balance structure with responsiveness—remaining grounded in the model while honoring the complexity of the human experience.
What I Hope to Impart
Who Is It For?
Consultation is available for clinicians who have completed an EMDRIA Approved EMDR Basic Training and the initial 10 hours of consultation, those seeking additional support with case conceptualization, complex presentations, or deepening their confidence in EMDR practice.
Whether you are feeling stuck with a case, navigating dissociation or developmental trauma, or simply wanting a more grounded and relational approach to EMDR, consultation is designed to support your growth as a clinician.
If you are looking for a collaborative and supportive space to deepen your EMDR practice, I would be honored to walk alongside you in the process.
