My Approach to Helping

Each of us is endowed with an enormous capacity for self-healing. We often need guidance in order to learn how to activate this innate ability. Compassionate psychotherapy coupled with Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) are the techniques I use to assist clients in finding their deepest healing and truth. We begin by establishing a trusting relationship and proceed to exploring how life has brought you to where you are today and the issues you wish to resolve. Whether it's a practical life problem or a history of traumatic experiences, these are methods that engage your inborn healing potential. I am a licensed mental health counselor, working for the past fifteen years with adolescents, adults, and couples. I have extensive experience and certification in the use of EMDR with clients of all ages. My special interest is in healing the broad spectrum of trauma which can include any experience that has left you feeling terrified, helpless, and overwhelmed. The legacy of these events can be depression, anxiety, phobias and fears, relationship problems as well as work and performance difficulties.

More Info About My Practice

I consider the opportunity to be of assistance to clients as a sacred trust, and we embark on the path to healing together, with the knowledge that, with the right kind of empathic support and guidance, you can face anything and find the way to your best self.
