What I do
Eye Movement Desensitization reprocessing Therapy
Hi, I’m Cherie Park, your EMDR-trained psychotherapist and partner on this journey to healing, relief and forward direction.
Do you find yourself ruminating on past events? Are you experiencing nightmares or flashbacks? Do you have a hard time trusting people or yourself? Are you getting triggered frequently? Do you experience performance anxiety? Are fears holding you back from being your best self?
We will work together to dig deep and identify painful traumatic memories, both big T traumas and little t traumas and process them through bi-lateral eye movement. EMDR is an evidence-backed intervention that has been shown to safely and effectively reduce trauma symptoms.
Once these painful memories are fully processed, you’ll notice your ability to tolerate triggers better, have greater self-compassion and increased emotional stability and capacity. Clients report feeling lighter, more resilient, and renewed.

Hi! I’m Cherie
After a 20-year career in business, including finance, startups, and marketing, I yearned for a greater purpose, one rooted in healing, meaning, and human connection. This led me to pursue clinical training and become an integrative EMDR therapist, where I integrate evidence-based trauma treatment with a deep understanding of attachment style, cognitive and behavioral therapy, relational dynamics and life transitions. My background allows me to work especially well with high-achieving individuals, children of immigrants, professionals, and couples navigating disconnection, trauma, and identity shifts. I bring a grounded, compassionate, trauma-informed and practical approach to therapy, helping clients create lasting change in addition to temporary relief.

Some examples of Trauma symptoms
Trauma can show up as anxiety, depression, disassociation, ADHD, insomnia, addiction, avoidance, numbness & emotional toxicity
Childhood Trauma
Childhood trauma can shape how a person understands safety, trust, and relationships long into adulthood, often influencing emotional regulation, attachment styles and self-worth. Even when the original events are in the past, their psychological and somatic echoes may continue to affect how individuals react to stress, attachment, and conflict.
Relational Trauma
One example of relational trauma is betrayal trauma, which occurs when someone is harmed by a person they depended on for care, protection, or emotional safety. It can result in crippling self-doubt, avoidance of closeness, profound loneliness, and chronic anxiety, as victims struggle between the desire for connection and the fear of being hurt again.
Workplace Trauma
Workplace trauma can occur in environments marked by chronic hostility, harassment, discrimination, or sudden critical incidents, leaving employees feeling unsafe, powerless, or devalued. Over time, it can lead to burnout, anxiety, diminished self-confidence, and difficulties trusting authority or organizational systems.
