EMDR Trauma Therapy for Adults and Teens

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

I work with helpers/first responders, high achievers and adult children of emotionally immature parents who have been carrying more than anyone realizes. Through EMDR, I help you release what’s been weighing you down — so you can stop just getting through the day and start actually living your life.

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. As a certified EMDR therapist, I guide your brain’s natural healing process to gently reprocess painful memories and the beliefs that developed around them.

The best part? You can’t do this wrong. You can’t mess this up. EMDR is different from traditional talk therapy—and it’s effective. 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.
