Serene Waters Psychotherapy
About
I work primarily with adults and offer a trauma-informed, relational approach to therapy in Minneapolis and the surrounding Twin Cities area. I’m trained in EMDR therapy, which can be incredibly effective for clients healing from trauma, PTSD, or difficult life experiences. I am also trained in the Anchored Relational Therapy model. My style is collaborative, honest, and deeply human—I bring laughter, curiosity, and realness into every session. I’d be honored to support you. Reach out today to schedule a free consultation. Your full self is welcome here.
EDS Healthcare in New York
The NYIT EDS/Hypermobility Treatment Center operates in Old Westbury and Central Islip, offering specialized rehabilitation and treatment. Mount Sinai South Nassau Chiari EDS Center in Oceanside focuses on EDS with Chiari malformation. Weill Cornell provides pain management expertise. New York Medicaid covers genetic testing with prior authorization. Wait times at major programs can be 6 months or longer.
Both EDS Centers of Excellence are on Long Island, leaving upstate New York significantly underserved. Patients in Buffalo, Syracuse, Rochester, and the Adirondacks face drives of 4-6+ hours to reach these programs. Wait times of 6 months or more are common. Rural upstate access is very limited, and telehealth is important for follow-up care.
Finding Mental Health for EDS
Look for a therapist who has worked with chronic illness patients and understands that EDS-related anxiety and depression often have physical triggers, not just psychological ones.
