My training is in Depth Psychology, which means that I am interested in the whole person, including thoughts, feelings, somatic symptoms as well as the developing sense of Self. I also believe that we are all mirrors for each other and so we are always in relationship in one way or another, with ourselves, nature, and life that is going on all around us. I believe that our wounding occurs in relationships and so does our healing. We all need a witness to our pain and I believe that the therapeutic relationship must be one of trust and connection, so I work hard to build a relationship that helps to ease the work of the individuals or couples that I see.
Here to listen. Not to judge. Let me help you find hope, regardless of your situation. We can together uncover what is underneath any pain or challenge through dialogue and understanding. My background is both professional and personal, having both faced many challenges myself and professionally supported others to find peace. Open to working with all ages and issues. Taking the first step is often difficult, but I promise to make the journey as comfortable as possible. Nothing to lose, and much to gain.
At my therapy practice, I utilize various tools to help clients restore, heal, and move forward. I am a Certified EMDR Therapist who works with first responders, military, assault victims, trauma victims, and people experiencing anxiety. I use EMDR to help heal people with past traumas in their life that continue to disturb them.
I am also a Trained EFT Therapist (Emotionally Focused Therapy). I utilize this to help couples improve their communication, restore their relationship, and heal from past wounds.
My practice is a safe, comfortable and welcoming environment where my clients come to work through the challenges they are facing in their lives. For more than 20 years, I have devoted my professional life to helping people overcome their difficulties. My therapeutic style if affirming, compassionate and highly directive. I am not the kind of therapist who sits there and nods at you without ever offering any real counseling. If you are looking for a down-to-earth therapist who wants you to get better rather than keep you in therapy for years on end, we'd be a good fit. The purpose of therapy is to facilitate POSITIVE CHANGE. Let's get to work so you can realize a happy, peaceful and satisfying life.
Our goal is to help you uncover your true potential, and lead a life that is worth celebrating. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can work together to better understand and resolve challenges in your life. Our practice style is goal oriented using numerous approaches.
