About Me, About You
Heather Findlay, MFT
I am a licensed psychotherapist with a real passion for helping people heal. Perhaps you are struggling with depression or anxiety; perhaps you had a difficult childhood; maybe you are seeking a spiritual connection to yourself, others, the universe. I strongly believe that your capacity to heal lies within you, and that my role is to create a safe place so that your inner healer can work its natural magic. I am a certified practitioner of EMDR, best known as a powerful therapy for treating post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), but also great with addiction, mood disorders, and spiritual exploration. I also help people prepare for and integrate states of expanded consciousness, I have a Masters of Science in Counseling Psychology from Dominican University of California and a PhD in English from Cornell University. También hablo español.
My Services

Talk Therapy
It was women in asylums at the end of the nineteenth century who first realized that talking to a healer they trusted made them feel better. (Freud's hysterical patients dubbed it "the talking cure.") With 13 years of experience hearing people's stories and acting as a compassionate witness, I consider myself a professional listener.
I'm honored to hear you.
EMDR

Talk Therapy
EMDR is the leading-edge treatment for trauma, whether it's a car accident that happened a week ago, or chronic abuse that took place in childhood. I am trained in Attachment-Focused EMDR, which goes deep and helps rebuild your fundamental ability to feel trust, love, and happiness in relationships.
I am EMDRIA certified.
INTEGRATION

INTEGRATION
Many people today are seeking healing and awakening through expanded states of consciousness, including EMDR, meditation, and medicines. I do not advocate illegal substances or guide people on them; I do offer preparation and integration to folks before and after their independent journeys with entheogens.
I am MAPS trained.
