This Isn't Your Average Therapy Practice.

Too many people spend years in therapy with little to show for it. Talking in circles. No plan. No measurable progress.

At The Therapy Loft, every session has a purpose. We use EMDR — Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing — combined with other proven, trauma-informed approaches to get to the root of what's keeping you stuck.

Whether you're an athlete losing your edge, a woman recovering from a toxic relationship, or someone carrying trauma you can't shake — there is a way forward. And it starts here.

What We Specialize In

Choose the area that resonates most with you.

Athletic Performance Enhancement

Athletic Performance Enhancement

Your mind is holding your body back. Let's fix that.

Even the most skilled athletes can experience sudden, unexplained performance struggles. A mental block. The yips. Performance anxiety. An injury your body recovered from — but your mind hasn't.

These challenges aren't just physical. They're deeply rooted in the mind, body, and nervous system.

Using EMDR, we help athletes reprocess the distressing experiences, injuries, and mental roadblocks that are disrupting performance — so you can get back to the sport you love.

  • Athletes battling the yips, slumps, or twisties
  • Athletes recovering from injury-related mental blocks
  • Parents of young athletes struggling with performance
  • Coaches seeking evidence-based tools for their players

Narcissistic Abuse Recovery

Narcissistic Abuse Recovery

You left the relationship. Now let's get you back to yourself.

Toxic relationships — with a partner, parent, or anyone who claimed to love you — have a way of haunting you long after they end. The self-doubt. The people-pleasing. The exhaustion of never feeling like enough.

It's not your fault. And you don't have to keep carrying it.

Using EMDR and trauma-informed therapy, we'll help you understand how the toxic dynamic developed, break the patterns keeping you stuck, and rebuild your sense of self — so you can stop surviving and start living.

  • Recovery from emotionally abusive relationships
  • Complicated family dynamics with a toxic parent
  • Co-parenting with a narcissistic ex
  • A pattern of attracting the same type of partner

Trauma Recovery Using EMDR

Trauma Recovery Using EMDR

You don't have to relive it to heal from it.

Trauma doesn't stay in the past. It shows up in flashbacks, sleepless nights, emotional outbursts, and a constant sense of being on edge. It clouds your relationships, your work, and your sense of self.

EMDR therapy doesn't require you to endlessly revisit painful memories. Instead, it rewires how your brain stores trauma — so it no longer controls your present.

Using bilateral stimulation and guided processing, EMDR helps the brain reprocess distressing memories and heal naturally. Many clients experience significant relief in just a few sessions.

  • Childhood and complex trauma
  • Recent and acute trauma (within 90 days — EMDR R-TEP protocol)
  • Secondary trauma and first responders
  • Grief and loss
  • PTSD and acute stress disorder
