Medically Unexplained Symptoms

Your mind and body are in constant communication, and your experiences shape how you respond to stress and heal from illness. Sometimes, this complex interaction can lead to symptoms that traditional medical approaches struggle to explain or treat effectively. As a specialist in medically unexplained symptoms, I help individuals and families find their path to healing through an integrated approach that honors both physical and emotional experiences.

Understanding Medically Unexplained Symptoms

Ketamine-Assisted Therapy offers a groundbreaking path to healing that can help with a wide range of challenges – from everyday stress and anxiety to deep-rooted trauma. Whether you're experiencing relationship disconnection, carrying the weight of past experiences, or simply feeling stuck in patterns that no longer serve you, this innovative approach can help you find new perspectives and lasting change.

This work can be done individually or as part of couples therapy, creating space for deeper connection and healing within your relationship. As a specialist with over 20,000 clinical hours, I integrate this powerful tool with evidence-based therapeutic approaches to help you achieve breakthrough results, wherever you are in your journey.

“I’ve had an essential tremor in my abdomen for the last 20 years. I have tried everything from hypnosis to acupuncture to CBT to reiki…nothing helped. A friend recommended Dr. Cammy. Dr. Cammy managed to completely eliminate the tremor using a combination of interventions. I would say he is a magician but actually she’s just a highly skilled therapist.” -

“So grateful I found Dr. Cammy! I was diagnosed with non-epileptic seizures and the doctors said I needed therapy. Dr. Cammy was the only person who could clearly explain what was happening to me and help me get better.”

“I was referred to Dr. Cammy by my OB-GYN for ‘medically unexplained’ pelvic pain. Dr. Cammy figured out why I had the pain and what I needed to do to get better. Through EMDR and parts therapy, my pelvic pain gradually went away. I also resolved my issues about childhood incest, which I thought I would live with forever.”

“My neurologist referred me to Dr. Cammy for psychogenic seizures after I was attacked. She was the most caring provider I’ve ever met. I am now seizure free and back to work full-time.”

“Cammy started as our couples therapist, but for the last ten years we’ve used her more as a consultant for big decisions. She helped me and my husband so many times, such as when I had postpartum depression, a child with special needs, a career change, and treatment for thyroid cancer. She was there through it all. Cammy advocated for us every time we needed it and she was not above calling school administrators, doctors, or other professionals to advocate for us. Cammy is a partner in helping us figure out life."

My PCP referred me to Dr. Cammy for an essential tremor in my abdomen. We did 4 hours of EMDR and it was gone. It felt like a miracle.”

My OB-GYN referred me to Dr. Cammy because I have vaginismus and needed a pelvic ultrasound. Dr. Cammy  helped me understand how my trauma history caused my vaginismus and I was able to get my procedure and have sex again, which was an added benefit. Dr. Cammy called my OB-GYN and stayed on the phone with me during the procedure so I would have support in the moment.”

“My dentist referred me to Dr. Cammy because I needed a root canal and have severe dental phobia. We did EMDR and Dr. Cammy made me a personalized meditation audio to use when I’m stressed. Now I can go to the dentist more regularly.”
