Therapy That Moves You
Trauma-informed EMDR, Experiential Therapy, & Intensives - for people tired of just talking about it
THERAPY IN NEVADA & TENNESSEE
Can you relate?
You've done all the things — books, journaling, maybe even years of therapy — and you're still hitting the same walls.
Everyone knows they can count on you because you’ve got it together, yet you feel like you’re constantly trying to keep your head above water.
You’re in a never-ending battle with yourself and white-knuckling your way through urges and temptations.
Your life feels small and you question if you’re really even living it.
You have periods of feeling “okay,” followed by another demoralizing setback.
Why settle for feeling okay when you could feel free?
Traditional talk therapy often helps you understand your patterns; it doesn't always help you change them. There’s a reason our attempts to think our way out of problems often fail us, and it’s not because you’re just not trying hard enough. Real change occurs when we’re deeply connected to our emotional experience and intuition, followed by action. This process requires stepping into courage: saying the thing out loud, asking for help, feeling the feelings, taking the step you keep talking yourself out of… Sound like too much? The good news is, you don’t have to do this all at once or alone. I believe in you more than your fear does, and I'll be right there with you as you work through it.
This is where experiential therapy comes in
Talking about a pattern can feel productive, but it seldom stops you from repeating it. That’s because what's keeping you stuck usually isn't stored in your narrative; it's stored in your nervous system. This is why we can’t talk our way out of a trauma response or tell ourselves to be different.
Rather than just talking about your experiences, we use experiential therapy to engage them in the present moment — through EMDR, somatic awareness, parts work (IFS), and psychodrama. Whether we're meeting weekly or in a concentrated intensive, we don't just talk about what happened; we work with it in real time, as it shows up in your body and your reactions.
Top specialties
I work with the people who've done all the "right" work and are still white-knuckling the same urge, bracing for the next thing to go wrong, or holding it together for everyone but themselves.
-
You show up, you perform, you meet every deadline and keep every commitment. From the outside, you look like someone who has it together. But underneath that, the thing you’re working hard to control is controlling you.
-
You can know exactly what happened to you and still find your body reacting like it's happening now. That's not you doing it wrong — that's what complex trauma does.
-
You're the one everyone counts on. From the outside, it looks like competence. From the inside, it feels like drowning.
-
You know the moment — right before the hard conversation, the step you've been putting off. Your mind starts working against you.
What qualifies me to do this work?
A degree, sure. But more importantly: been there, done that.
Grew up risk-averse and terrified of making mistakes and letting people down? Check.
Developed unhealthy coping mechanisms to deal with my pain? Check.
Was super capable and disciplined but lost control in certain areas of my life? Check.
Wondered how other people knew how to do this “life thing” so effortlessly, as if there was some secret I just wasn’t in on? Check.
And that’s just the beginning. Today, I can share these experiences from a place of compassion and pride, because they no longer drive my life. And that’s what I want for you - freedom from what burdens you and holds you back.
I’m Hannah, and I'm here for it all. In whatever place you’ve found yourself, I’m ready to get in the trench and help you dig your way in and through. We won't stay at the surface because I believe you're capable of more than that. And if you’re worried you might lack the hope, faith, and courage to do this work, don’t worry - you can borrow mine until you get there.

I couldn't recommend Hannah enough. She led with care, grit, and humor. She kept us safe but also pushed us in ways I could not have even imagined.
