Introduction

I'm Staci Root, a licensed EMDR therapist specializing in treating depression, anxiety, and PTSD in both teens and adults. I support clients in working through past trauma and experiences to reconnect with a more grounded and empowered sense of self. Empathy, curiosity, and a belief in genuine healing shape the foundation of my approach. I offer therapy exclusively through telehealth (online), making it easy and convenient for us to work together. I accept Blue Cross Blue Shield insurance. Self-pay costs $175/session.
