Jan Santora-Farrar, MA, LMHC, BSP, EMDR, EFT

I offer psychotherapy and counseling to individuals and groups for healing trauma and healthy transition along the lifespan. I believe that release of blocked energy transforms emotional experience and becomes a path to authentic personal and spiritual relationship. Therapy is essentially about moving energy. For example, coping skills may be developed in childhood to survive family of origin and cultural projection, and then as we age, pain results from using skills which no longer work and continue to mask the authentic self. Therapy may be about developing trust, self-forgiveness, and new coping skills while keeping parts of the original coping skill that still work. I may use systems, cognitive, developmental, psychodynamic, family-of-origin, BRAINSPOTTING CERTIFIED, EMDR CERTIFIED, EFT Tapping therapy modalities. Therapy is based on individual need, and so may include exploring conflict resolution as well as focusing and self-esteem skills. Developer of concept Chronic Loss Syndrome (non-death loss).

I offer psychotherapy and spiritual counseling to individuals and groups regarding work, aging, health, finances, relationships, chronic loss, coercive control, and experiencing the Self. I facilitate life transitions and offer specialties in adoption reunion counseling, distance parenting, partners of sex addicts, and narcissistic trauma recovery. Life is change and skills can be learned to provide peaceful passage through its continuous cycle of beginnings and endings. I have been in private practice since 1994, am a speaker and author, and have facilitated the enduring Mothering Ourselves groups for adult daughters.
