AAMFT Clinical Supervision in NC & VA + EMDR Therapy in NC & VA
When you understand the why, everything changes.
Helping LMFTAs grow with confidence.
Helping women heal from what still hurts.
clinical supervisionYou don’t need all the answers.
You need to know how to find them.
That’s where clinical supervision comes in.
Not to give you all the answers. And certainly not to make you feel like you should already have them.
I want to help you learn how to find them.
How to look at a client and see more than a diagnosis or presenting problem. How to recognize the patterns, relationships, experiences, and trauma that may be driving what’s happening in the room.
Because knowing what to do matters.
Understanding why you’re doing it changes everything.
Real clients rarely follow the textbook.
They don’t show up with one clearly defined problem, neatly packaged and ready for the intervention you learned in grad school.
They show up with trauma and complicated relationships. Family history. Grief. Faith. Attachment stuff. A diagnosis that doesn’t quite explain what you’re seeing. Or five different things happening at the same time.
And there you sit thinking, Okay. What do I do with all of this?
This is where I think good clinical supervision matters.
I’m not interested in simply handing you an intervention and sending you back into the room. I want us to slow it down. Look at what’s happening. Talk about what you’re noticing—and what you might not be noticing yet.
Talk about what’s happening for YOU when a client breaks down,
maybe even yells, pushes back, or questions what you’re asking of them.
Supervision isn’t just about examining the client’s emotions, thoughts, and behaviors. It’s about exploring yours, too, and understanding how they impact your client, you as a clinician, and, most importantly, you as a person.
The goal isn’t for you to become dependent on your supervisor for the answer. It’s for you to become a clinician who knows how to help the client find their answers—and, along the way, learn a whole lot about yourself.
You’re going to grow a lot between LMFTA and LMFT.
My hope is that somewhere along the way you become more confident in what you know, more curious about what you don’t, and a whole lot more comfortable being the therapist—and person—you already are.
EMDR INTENSIVESYou’ve gotten really good at looking like you’re okay.
You work. You take care of the people you love. You handle what needs to be handled. You keep going.
But something still isn’t okay.
Maybe you know exactly what it is. Maybe you’ve spent years trying not to think about it.
Life keeps moving. The pain comes with you.
Maybe it’s the relationship that changed how you see yourself. The betrayal you thought you were over. The childhood you rarely talk about. The loss you never really had time to grieve. Or the experience you’ve spent years telling yourself wasn’t that bad.
You keep going because life requires it of you.
But the self-doubt, anxiety, anger, fear, and that feeling that you’re never quite enough don’t disappear just because time passes.
Maybe it’s time the past stopped getting a say in the life you have now.
When everyone counts on you, where do you get to put it all down?
Hi, I’m Sharon.
You’re here. Something has kept you scrolling.
Maybe you’ve tried therapy. Maybe you’ve even tried EMDR.
Perhaps I can offer something a bit different.
I work with women who, to the world—and even to their families and friends—have it all together. Work is going well. The kids are thriving. Everyone who needs something from you seems to be getting it.
But on the inside?
Yeah, on the inside, thoughts swirl, emotions rollercoaster, and it can feel like if you take one step off the expected course, the whole thing might come tumbling down.
EMDR Intensives give you something that may be hard to find anywhere else in your life: time that is entirely about you.
A half-day. A full day. Or even three days to focus on what keeps you stuck—the life experiences that didn’t turn out so well, relationships that crumbled, grief and loss that still punch you in the gut, or childhood memories of abuse or neglect.
Not squeezed into the hour you happen to have available this week.
Real time to do the work.
Through EMDR Intensives we can work on:
Painful memories that keep showing up, no matter how hard you try to forget them.
That nagging feeling that you’re never quite enough.
The need to keep everyone happy.
Guilt that shows up whenever you say no, set a boundary, or choose yourself.
Relationships that ended but left you questioning yourself long after they were over.
Betrayal that made it hard to trust again.
Grief that still catches you off guard and knocks the wind out of you.
Childhood experiences that shaped what you learned about love, safety, and your own worth.
You’ve built a life despite what happened.
Maybe it’s time to see what that life could feel like without the past having so much say.
Curious about what comes next?
About the therapist you’re becoming.
About how your story continues.
Or maybe you just want to know a little more before making a decision.
