Ariana Ziminsky
EMDR Therapist
Ariana Ziminsky comes to her current role as a clinical mental health counseling intern with a background in trauma-informed coaching and a neurologically informed approach to the healing process. After many years dedicated to her own personal journey of healing as well as formal study, Ariana has developed a compassionate, no-frills approach to helping people find their own path to feeling better and creating a life aligned with the inner light of who they truly are.
Ariana embraces polyvagal theory through an attachment-based lens and supports clients in accessing their own strength in the growth and healing process. She is EMDR trained and uses an eclectic approach that incorporates EMDR, DBT, Gestalt, and other methods as a way to help each person clear their personal clouds of trauma so the sunshine of their authentic Self can shine through.
Ariana works with people of all ages but specializes in adults healing from the effects of complex, childhood trauma and PTSD. Symptoms experienced often include depression, anxiety, overwhelm, "stuck" grief, "shutting down" instead of speaking up, and general life distress.
What you can expect working with Ariana:
Deep empathy and a safe space to unpack old trauma
Gentle yet clear guidance through the process of deep healing
A dedication to the healing potential of EMDR
A somatic approach to recovery from trauma
An inclusion of methods and materials that are truly helpful—and even fun!
