Individuals (couples below): Energy Psychology is a group of self-calming practices involving breathing and touching one’s own face and body. Scientific studies and clinical experience are confirming that Energy Psychology can help with anxiety, relationships, and trauma. You will learn practices to calm down during a conflict, sleep better, or let go of things that bother you. These practices help you by enhancing nervous system regulation, changing the way your brain stores upsetting memories, and bringing in more happiness and focus.
I am a Certified Gottman Method Couples Therapist. I'll help you formulate goals and coach you to make the changes you want. For both couples and individuals, I'll show you some cool cutting-edge research, that most people don't know about yet, about the biological root causes of anxiety. You can see what helps you feel focused and happy.
COUPLES: I'm the first, and still one of the only, Certified Gottman Method Couples Therapists in Oakland. We draw on research with thousands of couples to teach you to emphasize the things that long-term satisfied couples do, increasing intimacy and turning conflicts into connection, joy, intimacy, and lovemaking.
