Traditional talk therapy not enough? Are you interested to access more of your spiritual, mental, emotional and physical resources? Combining Western psychology with alternative/eastern wisdom, I can help you learn how to handle the enormous stresses life often entails in a compassionate, warm and body-centered way. My specialties include: parts work, relationship patterns, couples therapy, deep family patterns, shamanic counseling, existential therapy. Creative, engaging and efficient, this work will empower you to explore your mind freely. The more we know our own mind, the more we become the driver rather than the driven.
I have over 15+ years of experience. Common issues I work with: family trauma, depression, anxiety/confusion, couples therapy, existential angst, sexual issues of all kinds, recurring behavior or thought patterns, addictions. I'm trained in a type of parts work called Coming to Peace, a profoundly helpful tool. Emotional self mastery is the goal!
All elements of your life come into play during our sessions: race/ethnicity, age, cultural background, dominant paradigms in society (sexism, racism, heterocentrism), parenting, relationship status. None of us can do this alone and there are few places I'm unwilling to go when it comes to the psyche. And I always bring a healthy sense of humor to sessions!

The top issues I work with are: inner critic, relationship patterns and parts work which is fantastic for anxiety. I also specialize in bringing spirituality into therapy (whatever spiritual means to you) so that it can become a source of power and energy for you. With a background in multi cultural conflict resolution, relationship issues are always something I'm happy to help you look at.

In the first session I will take your "emotional biography" to get an overall picture of your life. From there, we will pinpoint areas that need attention, and we will map your triggers, traumas and patterns. Beyond that, we will focus on what you can do to heal! In addition to mapping your trauma, we will focus on what can be done to find your power again.
