Good therapy strikes a balance between compassion and challenge. How does the past influence daily life? What old patterns and programing run the show?.. and where is change necessary? I work with individuals, couples and families on issues of self esteem, trauma, depression and anxiety. I treat all ages including young people struggling with the stressors of adulthood; as well as older adults facing life changes. The first step in healing is a genuine and unconditional connection to a caring therapist. Reach out to start!
I hold two licenses: as a Psychotherapist and a Clinical Art Therapist. I specialize in trauma and am fully trained in Attachment-Based EMDR. I offer an honest, creative partnership to explore defensive patterns that get in the way of a full life.
We start with insight and understanding. We expand to the frequently new experience of "a safe relationship" together. Ultimately our goal is reprocessing and reprogramming past pain that breaks through to wreak havoc in intimate relationships and the ability to cope with life's stressors. Reach out, let's talk.
