I specialize in Ericksonian hypnosis and am trained in other models such as EMDR and EFT.
Accepting new PRIVATE pay clients and couples. You’ve done all of the things. There’s still more you’re wanting. The “usual” hasn’t helped and you’re wanting something to give, to shift, to change. You are ready and that’s what brings you here. It's time to get creative and experience something different. I am eager to help you find that. Clients often report learning useful tools or new perspectives when working with me while other clients say that their issues suddenly improved with our talking and they can’t articulate just how. It is an honor to collaborate with bright individuals and create a more meaningful existence.

I specialize in working with couples and families- I'm trained in EFT and EMDR. I am currently accepting new clients! Do you feel like emotions can feel completely overwhelming or even seem to be absent? Other times you might respond automatically without understanding why- then you feel disconnected from the people you care about. Things like trauma, worry, shame, stress, or feelings of low self-esteem can keep you or your loved one chained from living freely. I love working through this process to help individuals, families, and couples understand and then heal!

I work with a variety of clients including school-aged children and adults. As Psychologist Ashley Warner states, "Beneath every behavior, there is a feeling. And beneath every feeling, there is a need. And when we meet that need rather than focus on the behavior, we begin to deal with the cause, not the symptom." I believe it is through therapy we can work to understand what the deeper meaning is behind behaviors and find solutions to address the manifesting need.

Emotionally Focused Therapists

Who is emotionally focused therapy for?

Emotionally focused therapy (EFT) is for couples who are emotionally distressed, stuck in an unsatisfying relationship pattern or feeling deeply alienated. They may even believe the relationship is beyond repair. Very often, the partners display intense anger, fear, grief, loss of trust, or a sense of betrayal in the relationship. In addition, EFT is helpful to couples and individuals who have difficulty expressing emotions and those who have trouble regulating emotions.

Why do people need emotionally focused therapy?

People need emotionally focused therapy because the need for others is built into the brain, but the pressures of daily life can erode feelings of love, and couples often do not have the skills to find their way back to the comfort of each other. Instead, they may be stuck in repetitive patterns of anger, fear, grief, loss of trust, or a sense of betrayal. Emotionally focused therapy regards such strong negative feelings as expressions of protest over the loss of connection and turns them into pathways of reconnection.

What happens in emotionally focused therapy?

Over the course of eight to 20 weekly sessions, couples de-escalate their negative emotional reactivity to one another so that they can listen to each other and be responsive to each other’s needs. Then the deep emotional and physical bond is restored, giving partners a sense of comfort and security, which they can use to solve whatever problems come their way. The therapist plays an active role, helping partners understand how anger and withdrawal are actually misguided cries for connection.

What problems does emotionally focused therapy treat?

EFT is designed to help couples stuck in dysfunctional relationship patterns regain closeness and rebuild their relationship. Typically, such couples experience considerable distress, with partners feeling alienated and distrustful of one another, not certain their relationship can survive. EFT is also helpful to individuals experiencing attachment-related fears of loss; it helps them learn to use their fears as a way of eliciting the closeness they desire.
