As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist. I enjoy working with couples, individuals and families using an eclectic systemic approach. I am trained in EMDR, emotionally focused couples therapy, transgenerational, structural, strategic and solution focused approaches to family therapy. I also use Family Constellations in my work. As an adjunct to my therapy, I received Hypnotherapy certification. I am using hypnosis to help clients with sleep disorders, fears and phobias, as well as weight loss.
My experience includes 10 years of working with trauma victims and survivors, facilitating peer support groups, working with parents and partners of survivors to overcome the effects of trauma on the individual and the family.
I often work with my husband, Gary Stanek, LMFT, providing a gender balanced approach to couples therapy, an approach that highlights partners' differences while at the same time honoring them. The listening and validating exercises Gary and I teach get to the heart of what partners want from each other.
