About
My philosophy of healing is like working your way through a set of nesting dolls from the outer doll representing why you want to heal: trauma, attachment/relationship injury, depression, grief, and anxiety. The next doll holds the symptoms, thoughts, and feelings of the first doll. The next doll may may hold your negative beliefs you have perceived about yourself, others, and the world. The next doll may hold consequences and life impairments. The final doll represents your core and authentic self. The person you would be without all of the other dolls in relationship to the unity of mind, soul, heart, body and spirit.
I have over twenty-five years of experience in the human services field which includes: comprehensive community mental health, crisis services, residential care, disability inclusion, and employee assistance programming with clinical expertise in the areas of trauma and addiction. My holistic approach to healing includes the approaches of EMDR, IFS, and EFT.
It would be an honor and privilege to offer a safe, compassionate and supportive environment to facilitate the process and development of hope and healing.
