I welcome clients who seek therapy in order to change behaviors, relationships, or careers that are unsatisfying, and those who wish to unleash their creative energies - in the arts, business, academia, in parenting, and partnership. I especially enjoy clients who are questioning their relationship with addictive substances and are ready to take positive action. I have a warm and engaging style that my cients enjoy. I also specialize in healing the trauma of equestrian accidents.
I utilize the neuro-behavioral therapies of EMDR and Brainspotting extensively because they recruit the self-healing capacity of your heart/mind to transform your unhelpful story to a more adaptive, flexible, and enriching one. Therapy is accelerated with these modalities. And, we talk as well in order to help you integrate the changes you are making.
I am known for collaboration, my no "bs" style and rapid interventions. I believe that therapy should be filled with caring, curiosity, possibility, laughter and joy even in difficult territories. The therapeutic relationship between us is paramount as I tune into you and facilitate your healing process.
