Location
All psychotherapy sessions at this time and until further notice are by Telehealth. New referrals are closed at this time as well.
About
At this time, I am providing both Telehealth and in person services, however new client referrals are very limited. I am Certified in Clinical Hypnosis to facilitate healing, and am offering Clinical hypnosis sessions to specifically treat IBS using the North Carolina Protocol developed at UNC, Chapel Hill. I am also certified in EMDR. As a psychotherapist with over 40 years of experience, I work with individuals who have chronic and life-limiting illness, chronic pain, grief/loss, traumatic loss, PTSD, complex psychological trauma, dissociative disorders and DID.
I work from a Bio-psycho-social-spiritual systems approach using strategies from Cognitive Behavioral, Structural Dissociation theory, EMDR and Clinical Hypnosis.
Compassionate Care begins here.
