Life's challenges today are increasing levels of trauma, anxiety, depression, dramatic mood shifts and lowering self-esteem. I can offer a safe, sensitive, compassionate, relationship based solution. Together we will explore the impact of painful thoughts and emotions enabling us to develop a basis for clear insight and set the stage for hopeful growth and transformation.
My experience includes working with children, teens, adults, families & couples. I am trained in EMDR (trauma treatment), Theraplay (attachment-trauma child therapy) DDP (attachment Family Therapy), EFT (emotionally focused couples therapy) DBT (dialectic behavior therapy) and TFCBT (trauma-focused CBT). I integrate the mind, body connection through the use of somatic exploration and mindfulness techniques.
My therapy approach is rooted in attachment theory, focusing on the deep emotional bond between a parent and child. We will explore your early life experiences as they have an enduring effect on our current abilities to manage emotions, develop healthy relationships and cope with stress.
