Grace Goodman
Grace Goodman is a counselor-in-training pursuing a master’s degree in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Northwestern University under the supervision of Michelle Market, LPC, CEDS. Her counseling philosophy is grounded in the belief that everyone deserves to feel good. For her clients, feeling good often entails developing a healthier relationship with food, separating their worth from their weight/body shape, learning to set boundaries, and growing their self-love and self-compassion skills.
Her therapeutic approach balances working to understand your relationships and experiences and helping you develop tools for the here and now. In her free time, you can find her hiking, traveling, creating (and eating!) charcuterie boards, enjoying live music, cheering on her favorite sports teams, or getting lost in a book. Availability Saturday mornings (in person), Virtually or In person Tuesday and Wednesday evenings. Session cost $75-$100 (sliding scale available) to schedule with Grace email gracegoodman2024@u.northwestern.edu or call 703-996-9702

EMDR Therapy
EMDR is a structured therapy that encourages the patient to focus briefly on the trauma memory while simultaneously experiencing bilateral stimulation (typically eye movements), which is associated with a reduction in the vividness and emotion associated with the trauma memories. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) therapy is an extensively researched, effective psychotherapy method proven to help people recover from trauma and PTSD symptoms. Ongoing research supports positive clinical outcomes showing EMDR therapy as a helpful treatment for disorders such as anxiety, depression, OCD, chronic pain, addictions, and other distressing life experiences (Maxfield, 2019). EMDR therapy has even been superior to Prozac in trauma treatment (Van der Kolk et al., 2007). Shapiro and Forrest (2016) share that more than 7 million people have been treated successfully by 110,000 therapists in 130 countries since 2016.EMDR therapy does not require talking in detail about the distressing issue or completing homework between sessions. EMDR therapy, rather than focusing on changing the emotions, thoughts, or behaviors resulting from the distressing issue, allows the brain toresume its natural healing process.
