When working with trauma and/or issues of abuse, I believe that in-person is best.
Currently, I work with clients who desire to be full participants in their own health and healing process. My clients are "seekers" by nature -- often on a spiritual quest. Many of my clients have already had years of previous therapy. They do not come to me to work on a "problem." They come to understand their role in the problem, to resolve it, and to learn from it. My "typical" client is someone who wants to transform suffering into meaning and bring purpose to it. Many of my clients are interested in using narrative or storytelling to tell or "rewrite" the stories of their lives.
