My Approach to Helping

If you feel as if you've tried everything (even therapy!) and it hasn't worked, then maybe the type of therapy that I do could work for you. I have specialized training in a technique called Somatic Experiencing. This type of therapy helps people heal trauma without all the talking that is done in traditional therapy. I help people use their own innate resources to heal painful experiences, relationships, and recurring thoughts.

More Info About My Practice

Upon request, I offer a 20 minute free initial consultation. A sliding scale is available in extenuating circumstances.

Specific Issue(s) I'm Skilled at Helping With

Many women that I see first come in after their spouse has cheated on them. It is very common for there to be a history of sexual abuse, rape, or incest underneath the hurt from the affair. My background in treating trauma is useful in healing the wound of betrayal, as well as the older wound caused by sexual abuse. Once the old wound has been opened and therefore allowed to heal, then people are able to feel more confident about who they are and what they want from life.
