Stephen Duraney, LPCC
EMDR Therapist in Berkeley, CA
Meet Stephen: My approach to therapy always starts with building a unique relationship with each client; there are no cookie-cutter answers when it comes to your healing journey!
“The wound is the place where the light enters”- Rumi
I feel this quote captures what EMDR therapy is all about, taking a wound that has been the cause of distress in your life and transforming it into a strength, a place where the light can enter again.
Some of the modalities I utilize are:
- Acceptance and Commitment Therapy
- CBT
- EMDR
- Mindfulness
- Psychodynamic
I see clients for telehealth only and my specialties include:
- Anxiety
- Attachment Trauma
- Childhood Trauma
- Complex Trauma
- C-PTSD
- Depression
- OCD
- Emotional Abuse
- First Responder Trauma
- Grief and Mourning
- Medical Trauma
- Military/Combat Trauma
- Psychological Abuse
- PTSD
- Relational Trauma
- Religious Trauma
What drew me to this work: As a former member of the Army National Guard, I witnessed firsthand the results of trauma and stress and the havoc that they can wreck on a person’s life. Counseling was a natural step into a field that has equipped me with the experience and knowledge to help people develop their inner-strength, build deeper relationships with the people around them, and rediscover their joy. I have a heart for helping people arrive at this type of insight and change. In addition, I enjoy getting to learn from clients each day and the personal growth that comes with accompanying you on the journey towards healing.
Services: I currently online video counseling using EMDR for residents of California.
My style is: Warm, relationship-focused, evidence based and direct.
