My Approach to Helping
I believe that there is an inner wisdom that guides healing if it is heard, respected and trusted. I teach people how to listen to and trust their own truth as it manifested in their body. I encourage people to have faith in themselves and their own healing process.
I teach relationship skills such as clear, effective communication, anger management and assertiveness as well as establishing and maintaining personal boundaries. I try to connect with people as a partner and resource in their healing process.
My undergraduate degree was in medical technology. I bring my experience with medical issues to my work and fully appreciate the connection between physical and emotional health. I work with physicians, nutritionists, massage therapists and acupuncturists for a more complete approach to healing.
I teach techniques that people can use at home to relieve stress and continue the work of the therapy on their own. I teach Focusing as developed by Eugene Gendlin. Focusing increases mindfulness and self awareness as well as relieving stress.
