I believe in the innate power of human beings to heal & grow. You don't have to live with the pain of old experiences weighing you down or keeping you stuck; healing is possible & within reach. Are you struggling in relationships or at work? Are you trying to be the person, parent, or partner you want to be, but missing the mark? Do you want to finally learn to accept (& love) yourself fully & unconditionally, & allow others to love you as well? Counseling can help you find freedom & clarity and let go of what's holding you back. I'm certified in EMDR & can offer this modality for healing in addition to traditional talk therapy.
My clients would say that I'm not a therapist who simply nods her head & says "uh huh." Appropriate feedback, a different perspective, or a simple kind word given at the right moment can be powerfully healing. I also recognize the power of just sitting together in silence when necessary.
If you've been in talk therapy for years & are still having difficulty in your everyday life & relationships, EMDR Therapy can be a powerful tool to help you finally break through old patterns of behaving, thinking and being in the world. PTSD/ C-PTSD/ anxiety/depression do not have to be a life sentence! You can heal completely: mind, body and spirit.

I believe that each person who comes to me seeking counseling is a unique individual. So I use tools from many different modalities and adapt the therapy to benefit each person (rather than a "one size fits all" philosophy that might try to fit the person into one specific type of therapy) and promote the growth, healing and/or transformation you're seeking.
