Through our work, my clients come to understand problematic patterns of relating within themselves and with others as I teach them mindfulness skills, emotion regulation, and healthy ways of connecting in a safe experiential therapy process.
I am a Licensed Clinical Psychologist in private practice since 2001. I care deeply about helping my clients work through challenges in their lives, with sensitivity and humor. Everyone has challenges but sometimes involving a mental health professional is helpful to produce needed or desired change. I take into account the influences of psychology, biology, culture, family context, and spiritual/religious considerations to find answers to your psychological and relationship questions/concerns. I help my clients find healing and new ways to see the world and strengthen their relationships with themselves and with others.

You try to consider what you could have done differently, and yet it’s in the past. You start to question other choices you’ve made. Are you making the right call? Doubt creeps in. You find it hard to concentrate on your family or partner, your job, or schoolwork. Your mind hurts, your stomach hurts, your body hurts. You feel exhausted; it's only been an hour.

You are the protagonist in your life story, yet sometimes it feels like someone else is writing the words and life is passing by. Hardships such as depression, grief, addiction, and trauma may be written into the story but these do not have to be the prevailing theme. Together, we can rewrite your story and bring new themes to light: themes of hope, balance, and peace. This may require some editing of some thought patterns and behaviors. It may take trying new tools to see what fits into your story. Your story may even need a proofread or two to process what has already been written in the past.

I enjoy helping clients who feel stuck with some aspect of their life get unstuck and experience more joy and peace. I like getting to the heart of issues as efficiently as possible so we can begin working on finding answers and solutions. This process begins by discussing the challenges a client is facing and noticing areas of strong emotion. From there, we explore those strong emotions and note what core issues might be driving these feelings. It's a powerful process of discovery that helps bring complex issues into focus.

As a marriage and family therapist, my professional training was focused on treating couple and family-based issues. I particularly enjoy working with couples who feel disconnected and at a loss for how to communicate and feel close again, those who long for more vulnerability and honesty in their relationships, and who recognize the need to work together through their individual "baggage" in order to create healthier connection. If this feels like it describes your relationship, I think my emotionally-focused approach can help provide the relief you've longed for.

Experiential Therapy

How does experiential therapy work?

Experiential therapy works by allowing an individual to use their creativity to re-imagine themselves and their lives in an effort to process their emotions. Experiential therapy may take many forms, including engaging clients through art, re-enactments, role-playing, music, or forms of physical recreation. By focusing on these activities, experiential therapists help individuals identify the emotions they associate with previous experiences and work together to cope with negative reactions, like fear, anger, or shame.

Is experiential therapy evidence-based?

Experiential therapy incorporates many therapy modalities, some of which have been more closely researched than others. Music therapy, for example, has been shown to help with sleep problems. Some studies find that art therapy can be beneficial for those with eating disorders or personality disorders, while other research suggests that such approaches have little impact.

How long does experiential therapy last?

The duration of experiential therapy will depend on the type of therapy used as well as the severity of the challenges an individual faces. Play therapy sessions may last for 30 to 45 minutes, and usually occur weekly for about 20 sessions. Art therapy may comprise 10 to 15 weekly sessions. Music therapy sessions generally last between 30 and 50 minutes and can be scheduled weekly or on an as-needed basis. For each therapy type, clients should periodically discuss their goals with their therapist to make sure the two are aligned on process and progress.

Does experiential therapy help with trauma?

Trauma is one area where experiential therapy may be useful. Traumatic experiences such as combat or childhood abuse can be so painful that articulating them can be too scary or painful; creating visual art allows people to express themselves without words, and tell their story in a different way. Listening to music can be relaxing, while making music as part of a group provides plenty of opportunities to connect with other people. Play therapy is often of value to children who have experienced a loss or distressing family experience, or who have been physically or emotionally abused.
