ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS ON JUNE 1, 2020. I work well with people who are seeking a compass for growth in their circumstances that bring them to therapy. I work with individuals (ages 18+), couples and families. I have had great success supporting individuals and couples challenged by addiction, anger, feeling disconnected, co-dependency issues, post-trauma distress and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), as well as struggling with history of child abuse(s), family/parent(s) Alcoholic/Substances/Addictions and/or family secrets.

It is not easy to choose a therapist. At this website,(psychology today) you are at the door steps of many competent therapists. Among us, you are very likely to find a therapist who are specialized in treating your unique symptoms or syndrome or problems: depression or manic, different types of anxiety, trauma, relationship issues. Let me introduce myself. In my thirty some years of practice, I have help clients relieve their symptoms: lift up their depression, slow down their racing thoughts, help them to find time to breathe, work through their trauma, remove their unwanted obsessive thoughts, and restore their good night sleep.

Feel like you've tried "everything" for your anxiety, sleep or focus issue? Are you tired of relying on medications to control your moods and emotions? Ready to quit smoking, lose weight, or achieve other goals and do it naturally? Creating real and lasting change is so much easier than you've been led to believe. Hypnosis is a safe, relaxing and highly effective means of achieving successful results. Whether your struggle is with weight, smoking, self-doubt, chronic pain, overwhelm, stress/anxiety, and so much more, research has shown hypnosis to be 93% effective after up to 6 sessions.

I focus on my client's strengths and core values, and collaborate with them to find their own answers. I believe in the power of choice, and that learning how to make good choices is key. Clients often say after working with me that they feel encouraged, empowered and able to face their fears, and they understand that fear is a choice, not a necessity. I assist clients in working through their personal barriers, so that they can be successful, present and happy in their lives and the lives of their families.

We are a perfect fit if you want more than better coping. I offer a pain-free route to personal & relationship wellness. I offer advances in psychology & neuroscience (brain). => You have innate mental wellbeing. It can be easily accessed by understanding how mind-consciousness-thought works, and how you have been innocently interfering with its wise & capable functioning. => You have a brain (a) with profound untapped potential & (b) keeping you stuck in unhealthy patterns. If you are open-minded and want true release, a fresh empowered start -- and even higher consciousness, you'll want to add this to our talk therapy.

Finally...therapy with a male client focus. When the "greener pastures" and "over the rainbows" approaches don't cut it, contact me.

I enjoy helping people who are ready and willing to change! Even if you have tried everything else, I use the latest techniques in neuroplasticity, your brain's natural ability to unlearn trauma and re-code new beliefs and patterns of interacting with others. I have many clients who are overseas or travel frequently, and see even local clients via phone or video. I specialize in areas of spirituality, career & money, relationships, weight, eating disorders, cutting, and past trauma including abortion. Whatever you need, my intention is that you reach your goals as quickly as possible.

It's OK not to be OK!....I meet my clients where they're at in life and walk along side them. Everyone is unique and has their own challenges. With compassion, warmth and respect, I treat the "whole person." I focus on their mental, emotional and physical wellbeing and use the most effective evidenced based treatment interventions. Because I incorporate the most effective neuro- science modalities into my treatment sessions, most clients feel better much quicker than traditional therapy methods. Whether you are struggling with PTSD, addiction or confidence issues, I would be happy to help you!

My commitment is to help you make positive life changes. There are times when we are faced with obstacles and difficulties that interfere with growth and development, preventing us from achieving goals and aspirations, and diminishing our happiness and wellbeing. Psychotherapy provides a safe, nonjudgmental setting to discover solutions to challenges. With the powerful tools of communication and insight, I will help you identify counterproductive patterns and habits preventing you from living an optimal life. Together we will recognize and build upon your strengths and skills, develop new resources and strategies, and discover beneficial, healing ways of approaching your life.

Looking for a therapist can be overwhelming, but it can also be an exciting opportunity for change. Perhaps you are seeking help overcoming feelings of anxiety or depression, or increasing connection and reducing conflict in a significant relationship in your life. Or maybe it's time to seek clarity about your past so that you can finally look forward towards a healthy, promising future. As a therapist with many years of counseling experience, I am deeply committed to offering an accepting, non-judgmental, and safe environment that can help you discover new possibilities for healing, positive change, and a better future.

Make concrete changes in your life by unlocking your potential and maximizing your performance across any area of your life. As a Life Coach, I use techniques and strategies from many fields, including Neuro-Linguistics, spirituality, hypnosis,& energy to work with you at your pace. In coaching, the questions, answers and solutions rest with you and evolve from the coaching process. Coaching differs from therapy and I have a vast toolbox to assist you in eliminating fears, habits, phobias, lack of motivation, internal conflicts, relationship challenges & other issues that interfere with your health, happiness and wealth. Transformation can be fun.

You feel empty, Completely drained. You have given everything you have to those around you and now, there is nothing left. You prioritize other people’s needs over your own. You are perfectionistic and people pleasing. You struggle with admitting that sometimes anxiety and fear take over. You mask your pain with frozen smiles and laughter--not wanting to burden others with your pain. You find yourself terrified of failing and this overwhelming need to do BETTER and MORE. You feel like if you don’t, then everything will fall apart. You feel like you cannot keep doing this but the fear and shame are overwhelming.

I integrate components of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, Mindfulness, and 12-step facilitation. My specialties include addiction and trauma treatment. I also focus on Psychological and Neuropsychological testing, assessment and diagnosis.

I've been working with adults and teens for over 44 years. My approach is empathic, direct, and thoughtful. Given I have a wide background in my training, I adapt my therapeutic approach to your needs. I find that effective therapy is a collaborative approach where we work together to understand your concerns, their origins and most importantly what can be done to bring about both the internal and behavioral changes that will be beneficial to you. My goal in therapy is to help integrate your shame and vulnerabilities into a healthy identity grounded in self-esteem and pride.

I am a bilingual and cultural therapist who has been living in the United States since 1998 and 12 years in Minnesota. I am from Venezuela and I have a deep understanding of cultural changes and backgrounds. My philosophy starts with an integral work in clients, being present and believing that body, mind and soul connection are keys to enhance the quality of life. Being aware is the beginning of a more peaceful life. In therapy, you take into action that sense of awareness by looking within.

During my forty years in the field I am continually amazed at the power of human connection. My goal as a psychotherapist is to enable each individual that I work with to experience their most empowered, real and authentic self in the here and now. This experience in therapy includes concentrating on strengths that we all have yet in our darkest times fade from our awareness. My commitment to my clients is to have available as many options as possible so no matter what the presenting issue, I will have the skills needed.

MY CLINICAL FOCUS is helping parents and their young adult children. Today's parents struggle with how much to support and how much to let go of young adult children. We are closer to and more invested in the success of our kids than past generations. It's harder for both parents and young adults to let go. Today, 52% of young adults ages 18-29 are living with their parents. COVID-19 and the depressed economy stress families and lead to greater rates of depression and anxiety and complicate the normal launch process. "Failure to launch" is a common challenge for both young adults and parents.

I work with clients of all ages and offer an array of services: diagnostic assessment, individual/couples/family therapy, skills training, guided relaxation/meditation, Quantum Neuro Reset Therapy (QNRT.com), parent coaching, consultation, postpartum services, etc. I work with athletes preparing them emotionally for sporting competitions. I enjoy providing clinical supervision to practitioners and supervising research. I provide consultation services to professionals, mentors professionals, and give educational in-services and presentations. I can also coach individuals toward achieving weight loss, fitness, finacial freedom, healthy aging and spiritual guidance.

My approach as an art therapist and psychotherapist is to encourage the process of self-realization through guidance towards self-awareness and self-love. I offer a holistic approach that is collaborative, hopeful and gentle. I provide a supportive environment for self-expression to help return clients to a sense of wellness and health. I believe that through embracing creativity through art making, client's can find relief from emotional pain, gain self-understanding and insight, and heal from trauma. I helps others empower themselves to heal through compassionate presence.
