About
Now you realize you need a change in your life. You might have a direction or a vision, though not sure about the how. When you find it difficult to let go of the past, when the past keeps being a significant part of your present, it is time to seek professional help. Together, we can work through issues of grief, loss or painful and traumatic events in an atmosphere of respect, caring and safety. We will collaborate to understand and help you bring that change. I specialize in experiential therapy, Psychodrama and EMDR - integrative and effective therapies researched and recommended for the treatment a wide range of difficulties.
I focus on working with attachment issues, grief and loss, trauma and addictions. I incorporate mindfulness and relaxation exercises to assist with stress management and self-regulation. I am honored by my clients' trust during the path to transformation, as we explore additional options beyond talk-therapy and, together, creating new experiences.
Clients often report life changing results after only a few EMDR sessions. Starting therapy and finding the right therapist can be challenging. I am happy to speak or meet with you to see if we will be a good match.
