My Approach to Helping

About My Clients:
I love to work with clients who really want to be done with their suffering, but don’t know how to do that. I integrate EMDR with Alison Teal’s Super Resourcing, a close cousin to EMDR that combines powerful resourcing and Parts work to achieve deep healing of your wounds.

Background and Approach:
In working with clients with trauma in their backgrounds – and many people have several – I use a process that’s tailored to each client. We’ll pay close attention to the pace of work that’s right for you. We’ll work together to develop your ability to be mindfully present and peaceful in your daily life. We can look at the coping tools you’ve been using, and look for ways to make them more adaptive for your present life. We can use some powerful tools to strengthen your internal resources. All these methods work to help you be well-grounded more often, in more situations, even in stressful times.
Trauma work doesn’t have to be as painful as you might imagine, and I’ll be with you helping find ways to make it as gentle as possible. EMDR, integrated with Super Resourcing and Parts work, can help you stay within your range of emotional tolerance. Overall the aim is to balance progress with gentleness.

Personal Beliefs:
I am a longtime ally of People of Color, women, LGBTQIA people, and I support social, economic, and environmental justice. I believe that deep down, we are meant to exist in community and connection. I strongly believe in everyone’s inherent right to discover who they are, and to live their fullest life.

My Role as a Therapist

I see my role as a therapist as a guide, to help you find your own way to healing. I believe that we all have the capacity for healing, but sometimes we need some help. Through EMDR, Lifespan Integration and Super Resourcing, I can help unlock your own ability to heal yourself, leave the past behind and grasp themes and patterns in your life and leave behind those which are not serving you. I will help you build your internal strengths and build your ability to deal with stresses.
