Kai Moyer PsyD

In our first appointment, we can discuss what’s going on for you in greater detail and I will ask questions to best understand your needs. After that, I will share how I think therapy might help and make a recommendation about goals for our work together. I value respect, compassion, and collaboration, and though the process of therapy is never simple, I want you to have experiences of relief from the difficulty you are facing. People often report feeling deeply cared for by me.

Strengths-Based Therapy- I value strengths-based therapy because I value people in their diversity. As no one person is like another, each has strengths that help them address problems within their life and the environment they live in. Strengths-based therapy involves supporting individuals in identifying and coming to a greater understanding of their strengths. Strengths-based work helps create a foundation where clients become stronger and better able to move through painful topics and address trauma. Joy, humor, cultural wisdom and many more strengths are vital in overcoming life's struggles. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) Therapy- We cannot always fully process difficult events as our mental, physical, and emotional systems become overwhelmed. We may develop unwanted symptoms such as flashbacks, fears, and sadness related to these unprocessed experiences. EMDR helps to restore brain function to what it was before the event and greatly reduces the symptoms that came about because of it. EMDR was originally developed specifically to help with PTSD but is now known to help with a wide range of problems.
