Meet Ginny:
I help people of all ages; children, teens, and adults. I specialize in survivors of complex trauma and PTSD using EMDR trauma counseling. I love to empower all age survivors and to help them to become free from the chains of trauma. I use EMDR, EFIT, and DBT to help my clients overcome the inner pain of trauma.
Child Therapy:
I enjoy helping children through the use of Child Centered Play Therapy and Playful EMDR to help children deal with many hard issues such as self esteem, bullying and other school-related problems. Additionally, I enjoy working with parents to help them with everyday issues that arise in parenting in this digital age.
Adolescent & Teen Therapy:
I also enjoy walking with adolescents and teens. In my previous career as a teacher, I have taught in those classrooms and stood in those hallways. Therefore, I understand just what it is like to be in school today. I enjoy walking along with children who struggle just to get up and go to school each day. I also enjoy walking with students who self harm, struggle with suicide idealogy, bullying, and navigating peer and parental relationships.
First Responders & Traumatology:
It is an honor for me to walk along with First Responders. As a certified Traumatologist, I have seen sexual assault survivors, people who have been through traumatic car accidents, those who are grieving, and many other trauma survivors leave therapy stronger and changed. Additionally, I feel incredibly honored to work with firefighters, police officers, and first responders who have been traumatized by things that they have seen on the job.
Meet Zoey & Animal Assisted Therapy:
I offer Animal Assisted Therapy with my dog, Zoey. Using a dog in therapy adds another layer of assistance to clients. Zoey can help improve motivation and engagement in therapy, perhaps resulting in a shorter recovery process and lower costs. Zoey can also provide a sense of security and emotional support. Dogs in particular offer unconditional acceptance and positive regard. Having a session with Zoey can promote relaxation. Zoey can help the client learn frustration tolerance and other anger management techniques. Zoey can be an instrument of learning, which can increase self-confidence and self-esteem. More than anything, Zoey always offers humor and fun due to her playful nature.
Experience/Education:
I have 6 years of experience as a counselor. I have training in EMDR, DBT, EFIT, and Play Therapy. I have a Bachelor of Arts Degree in Education from Upper Iowa University, a Master's in Education from Concordia University, and a Master's in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and a Certificate of Trauma from Regent University.
