There are times when we may need to feel extra support, and when an outside view helps us to gain clarity and insight. At other times, we may want a guide to help us dig deeper into past issues in order to transform ourselves and grow. I listen to my clients and together we decide the pace of therapy. I create a comfortable environment that encourages growth and self acceptance. Developing a relationship based on trust, safety and compassion helps my clients to identify and address obstacles to inner strength.
In addition to talk therapy, my background in body-centered therapies allows some clients to choose techniques I can offer that pay attention to the breath, body, and movement. Being able to live comfortably in our body and mind promotes self awareness,spontaneity and joy.
For over a decade, I have worked with clients on relationship issues, life changes, anxiety, depression, eating disorders, recovery from illness and trauma. My clients often feel empowered as they become more effective in their relationships and discover how to safely bring about the change they want in their lives.
