I aim to help clients strengthen their mind-body connection to increase distress tolerance.

Combining gentleness, strength, and evidence-based approaches with an intuitive understanding, is at the heart of my work. I use inner and outer resources to support people, and a little laughter and irony along the way. Attending to banished voices, lost dreams, inner-child work, saboteurs, and avoidance helps in getting people where they want to go. I utilize EMDR, have worked in grief support and inpatient. In addition, applying well-known factors in the neuropsychology of learning optimizes change. In practice, it all comes together using structure, flow, and clinical assessment.
