I have worked in the counseling field for over 15 years, both in agency, educational, and private practice settings. My speciality areas include addictive & compulsive behaviors: alcohol, drugs, sex & love addictions. I am trained in EMDR and EFT techniques, which can help to resolve trauma. In working with clients, I view my "role" as helping to facilitate each person's unique journey to living authentically. As an adjunct to my practice, I offer both equine-assisted psychotherapy (EAP) and equine-assisted learning (EAL). Workshops can be designed for recovering adults, women facing change, and couples. I believe that holding a passion for something that calls forth our creativity and commitment helps keep us healthy and excited about life. In addition to my practice, working with people, my other passion is working with my horses.
