My approach to therapy as a Jungian analyst is to listen deeply to discover the unique person that you are and the problems you are facing. In a safe, caring, and supportive setting we will utilize dream analysis, journaling, and other creative work to help guide you back to the wisdom within.
I have many years oof experience as it relates to divorce issues. I also provide Divorce Mediation Services to assist individual obtain a better understanding of the divorce process.
I regularly lecture on the topic of divorce. I have written a book for parents facing divorce titled, "Building Resiliency, helping your child build inner-strength through the adversity of divorce." It is available on Amazon. I have also written a story/journal book for children, "My Parents Still Love Me Even Though They're Getting Divorced."
If you or your spouse is considering divorce, but you are not completely sure that is the best path, then Discernment Counseling is designed for you. In just 1 to 5 sessions, our trained therapists can help you and your spouse gain clarity and confidence about a direction for your relationship. Discernment Counseling provides an innovative approach that is very different from traditional couples counseling. Rather than becoming mired in a discussion of marital problems, the goal in Discernment Counseling is to help you and your spouse decide whether to try to restore your marriage to health, move toward divorce, or maintain the status quo. No matter how you are feeling about your marriage or the decision to divorce, I will treat each of you with compassion and respect as we help you gain clarity and confidence about a direction for your relationship.
Hypnotherapist, Licensed RTT Practitioner, Clinical Hypnotist, Duke Certified Health Coach, Spiritual Counselor
I work with clients going through divorce or considering divorce and help them through the emotional space that divorce brings. With tools like RTT, hypnosis, emotion code, etc., we can find what brings you the most relief and support for your sessions. Sometimes the work also helps couples restore their marriage or their way of relating to their ex spouse.
