Therapy and consultation

At Nola Counseling and Wellness, individual therapy is a personalized journey tailored to meet your unique needs and goals. We believe in a collaborative approach, where we work together to uncover patterns, explore new perspectives, and empower you to create lasting change that leads to a more fulfilling life.

Life’s difficult moments can leave lasting imprints, making it challenging to move forward. If you’ve been struggling with trauma, anxiety, or overwhelming emotions, you might feel stuck—like no matter how much you try, the past continues to weigh you down. But there’s a way to break free and reclaim your life.

I’m excited to offer EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) Therapy Intensives—a powerful, focused approach designed to help you process and heal from the past more quickly and deeply. EMDR is a proven, effective method for treating trauma and other distressing experiences, and these intensives provide the space and time you need to dive deep into your healing journey.

In an EMDR intensive, we’ll work together over several hours or days in a concentrated format, allowing us to make significant progress in a shorter amount of time. This immersive experience can be especially beneficial if you’re feeling stuck in your healing process or if you’re eager to see more rapid results.

What makes these intensives special is the safe, supportive environment we’ll create together. You’ll have my full attention and care as we navigate through the layers of your experiences. We’ll take the time to ensure you feel grounded and supported every step of the way, making the process both powerful and manageable.

Whether you’re dealing with a single traumatic event or a lifetime of difficult experiences, EMDR therapy can help you release the hold the past has on you. The goal is to help you move from a place of pain and confusion to one of clarity, peace, and renewed purpose. By the end of the intensive, many people feel a profound sense of relief and a stronger connection to their true selves.

As therapists, we are constantly growing, learning, and evolving in our practice. But finding our unique voice and confidence as a therapist can sometimes be challenging. That’s where I come in.

I offer consultation services for therapists who are seeking to deepen their understanding of the therapeutic process, blend the art and science of therapy, and develop their own creative and collaborative approach. Whether you’re navigating complex cases, looking to refine your skills, or simply seeking a supportive space to explore your professional identity, I’m here to help.

In our work together, I’ll guide you through the delicate balance between theory and intuition, helping you to integrate evidence-based practices with your personal therapeutic style. My approach is rooted in empowering you to find your own voice, build confidence, and cultivate the skills necessary to be the therapist you aspire to be.

Consultation with me isn’t just about learning techniques—it’s about fostering a deeper understanding of yourself as a therapist, enhancing your ability to connect with your clients, and finding joy in the work you do. We’ll collaborate to explore your strengths, address any challenges, and support you in creating a practice that feels authentic and fulfilling.

If you’re ready to take your practice to the next level and empower yourself as a therapist, I’m here to support you on that journey.

At Nola Counseling and Wellness, we offer specialized trainings and retreats designed to enhance the well-being and effectiveness of your team. We offer essential topics surrounding self-care, fostering creativity in the workplace, and delivering trauma informed services.

With prior experience as the Clinical Director and Trauma Trainer for one of the largest outpatient community mental health organizations in western New York, I bring a wealth of knowledge and practical insight to each session. Understanding that each organization has unique needs, I’m also able to customize trainings or retreats to align with your specific goals.

In the hustle and bustle of everyday life, it’s easy to lose touch with our authentic selves. We often find ourselves weighed down by responsibilities, past experiences, or the expectations of others. But what if you could take a step back, breathe deeply, and reconnect with the person you truly are?

Our self-discovery retreats offer you the time and space to do just that. Set in a supportive and healing environment, these retreats are designed to help you recover your authentic voice, reignite your passions, and explore what truly matters to you. Whether you’ve experienced trauma, loss, or simply feel disconnected from your sense of purpose, these retreats provide a sanctuary for healing and growth.

Through a blend of guided introspection, creative expression, and therapeutic practices, you’ll have the opportunity to delve deeply into your inner world. You’ll be supported every step of the way, surrounded by others on similar journeys, and led by experienced facilitators who understand the delicate process of self-discovery.

As you reconnect with yourself, you’ll begin to feel more confident and invigorated, ready to take the next steps toward living your best life. These retreats aren’t just about relaxation—they’re about transformation. They offer a chance to step away from the noise and distractions of daily life and truly listen to your inner voice.

By the end of the retreat, you’ll leave with a renewed sense of clarity, meaning, and purpose. You’ll be equipped with the tools and insights needed to continue your journey towards a life that feels authentic and fulfilling.

If you’re ready to invest in yourself and create lasting change, our self-discovery retreats are the perfect place to start.
