As a Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, I have been practicing for over 18-years and traditionally from a psychodynamic approach. However, over the years I have transitioned to a multifaceted approach incorporating a Psychodynamic modality with EMDR, Performance Psychology, and Heart-Centered Hypnotherapy (HCH). This integrated approach is a much deeper process of psychotherapy and is achieved through a relaxed state of consciousness. HCH embraces the concept of self-determination and the belief that every client contains, deep within their own subconscious mind, the key to their own individual health and healing.
EMDR and HCH are experiential therapies. We identify core feelings, overcome limiting beliefs, interrupt unhealthy behavioral patterns, and increase self-awareness by discovering, leaning in, and moving through. Individuals experience visceral reactions in the body in which we work to release those energetic charges of emotions trapped within the body.
The link between our emotional and mental wellness is undeniable - How our body feels impacts our emotions. Emotions are physical and we can be unaware of how our body is storing stress and trauma. Because trauma is fundamentally a manifestation of nervous system dysregulation, it becomes an existential mandate to disrupt the trauma response.
