EMDR Trauma Therapy for Adults and Teens

Hey — I’m Kellyn. (like “Hellen” with a K)

I work with helpers/first responders, perfectionists and adult children of emotionally immature parents who have been carrying more than anyone realizes. You’ve learned to function under pressure, take care of others, and keep going no matter what—but beneath that strength, you may be feeling exhausted, disconnected, or unsure how to finally let your guard down.

Our work together is about making sense of the cumulative stress, trauma, and pressure you’ve lived through—and helping your brain and body finally find relief. I specialize in depth therapy such as EMDR and ego state work. Through this work, I help you release what’s been weighing you down and get to the root — so you can stop just getting through the day and start actually living your life.

If you’ve been browsing therapist websites, you’ve seen the familiar lines about “supporting your journey.” Truth is, we can all start to sound alike. And with all the acronyms—EMDR, ACT, CBT—it’s tough to know what any of it really means for you.

And sure, those things matter. Training matters. Approach matters. But the single most important thing? Finding a therapist you actually connect with. If something here resonates, let’s talk. We can set up a consultation and see if it feels like a fit. I offer individual therapy and EMDR intensives, both virtually and in-person at my office in Issaquah, Washington.
