Trauma & Anxiety Therapy in Dallas TX
EMDR Therapy for high-functioning adults who feel anxious, stuck, or shut down
Licensed to provide online EMDR therapy across Texas, Florida, Louisiana & Virginia
Breakups. Divorce. Sudden loss. Family issues. Demanding work.
Its easy to minimize these experiences because you kept functioning.
You showed up to work. You handled responsibilities. You didn’t fall apart.
But maybe you’re…
→ Thinking your body reactions & emotions are “too big” for what happened
→ Feeling guilt or shame after the experience
→ Hearing a harsh inner-voice that you can’t think your way out of
→ Staying busy or productive so you don’t have to slow down or feel
→ Seeing relationship patterns but can’t interrupt them in real-time
→ Noticing your usual ways of coping aren’t working on this
Big life changes can quietly overwhelm even the most capable people.
Therapy Services
Trauma Therapy
Find support when life knocks you down.
When your usual ways of getting by are not working, trauma therapy can help. Clients I work with are ready to learn new ways to care for themselves, and reduce distressing PTSD symptoms. I help folks feel safe again in their body, their relationships, and the world around them.
Tailored treatment lengths and frequencies to work for your needs: weekly 50 or 90 minute sessions or EMDR Intensive Retreats.
Michelle completes additional yearly EMDR training and holds EMDR certifications to provide the best care.
Anxiety Therapy
Michelle specializes in treating anxiety and helping clients with anxiety cope with anxiety, and learn how to reduce their vulnerability to overwhelming anxiety and panic attacks. We dive in with offering well-researched options for soothing the stress down, and then take a deeper look at how we can reduce anxiety.
Sometimes its tricky relationships, that harsh inner-voice that helps us handle our business, past life experiences, or life transitions that drive up the anxiety.
EMDR Therapy
Is traditional therapy not getting the relief you need from trauma or PTSD? EMDR Therapy is a well-researched therapy that provides better results for PTSD treatment and trauma therapy than regular talk therapy.
EMDR is a neuroscience based therapy that helps your brain and body heal from the distress of overwhelming life events.
Michelle is an EMDR Certified Therapist and EMDRIA Approved Consultant to provide skilled care to help you regain your steadiness again.

Therapy for Divorce Recovery
Most people facing break-ups or divorce feel a swirl of emotions—grief, anger, anxiety, relief, uncertainty, resentment, hopelessness—sometimes all in the same day. This is not just the ending of a relationship; it’s a shift that can touch every corner of your emotional well-being, identity, and relationships. People recover and rebuild after divorce.
Your normal way of getting through difficult things, may feel like it falls flat when faced with this new chapter of life. If you’re wanting to move through this experience the best you can, get to the work of healing, and discover what comes next- therapy can be the right investment for you. Michelle has personal experience as a divorced mom, and offers individual therapy and group support to those facing divorce.
