Borderline Personality Disorder Treatment! Trauma Reduction Treatment! PTSD Treatment! Evidence based Hypnotherapy and Self-Hypnosis training interventions. No charge first consult to assess and determine treatment needs. $200/hour. $100/hour for limited income. $50/hour for unemployed and students. Treatment with Hypnotherapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy are specialties. Treatment Planning is Solution Focused and Time Limited. My practice utilizes only the most extensively tested (evidence-based) treatment interventions.
Hypnotherapy allows one to address the underlying distress, and self-hypnosis practice reduces residual and incidental stress as needed. Hypnotherapy, self-hypnosis practice, and the learning and implementation of Dialectical Behavior Therapy techniques, reduces symptoms, increases impulse control, and creates uniform stabilization and integration.
I am a California Licensed Marriage Family Therapist with 40 years experience. I'm also available via Skype, FaceTime, and VSee (TeleMedicine secure & military encrypted) platforms for online therapy throughout California.
