Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy is an evidence-based therapy endorsed by the Veterans Administration and World Health Organization. Natasha uses it to deal with triggers from memories stored in the brain, body and emotions; PTSD; trauma and adverse experiences; reducing distress and negative self-concepts.

She also uses Internal Family Systems (IFS) to resolve internal conflict. The idea of IFS is that we are a mosaic of parts that have our best interests at heart. When we work with them, release pain from the past and integrate that healing, our inner critic becomes positive, our inner child heals, we feel better. We are freed to be who we want to be and live the life we .

Are you feeling anxious, worried, stressed, tense? Is it hard to concentrate or focus? Imagine resolving that anxiety, feeling calm, more relaxed, having more energy.

Feeling a pit in your stomach? Headaches? Panic? Envision yourself feeling relieved, lighter, more you, feeling comfortable in your skin.

Are you critical of yourself? Feeling you're not good enough? Imposter Syndrome? Picture knowing where that comes from, resolving it and feeling better.

Did something happen to you? Do you try to avoid think about it? But you feel triggered? See yourself unloading that emotional baggage and feeling free.

Do you want to get to the roots of the anxiety?
