My Approach to Helping
For me, therapy is a wonderful adventure of self discovery that unlocks and heals chronic patterns of self denial. Each time a pattern is healed, more joy and self connection opens up and life gets better.
I approach therapy in a direct and uncomplicated way. I listen and identify patterns of constriction in the client's life. Once identified, I begin to search for their source. Often the source of these constrictions is found in early traumatic experiences that could not be integrated. These chronic and often unconscious contractions limit our access to our authentic self. Once found, I disorganize the restrictions through a variety of interventions.
I believe therapy can be fun and enlightening and life changing. My clients laugh a lot and become intrigued with discovering the roots of who they are authentically. Of course the process has moments of difficulty but the results far outweigh the effort it takes to work through these painful moments.
More Info About My Practice
In addition to doing traditional psychotherapy, I also do "Systemic Family Constellation Work." This is an energetic healing process that was discovered in Germany 30 years ago by Bert Hellinger, Phd. and has recently become known in the United States. It is a mysterious and powerful way to heal transgenerational entanglements in your family system. It can be used to heal energetic contractions in any system, for instance your body, work, or relationship system. You can read more about this on my website: www.innatemovementsofthesoul.com. I do this work both individually and in workshops.
