Thank you for visiting my website. If you are new to therapy, you probably have questions and possibly some fear about the process. You may be wondering if you really need outside help and how therapy can help you feel better. Bringing your fears and sorrows to a trained and empathic listener is not only comforting, but also beneficial. A positive therapy relationship can heal old wounds, regulate difficult emotions and provide the safety needed to explore your deeper self.

If you've tried therapy before and were disappointed with the results, keep reading. My approach is considerably different from standard talk therapy. I draw primarily from the Hakomi Method, a mindful psychotherapy that recognizes the unity of body and mind. Therefore, I focus as much on subtle changes in energy and posture as the content of your communication. In addition, I sometimes use the "tapping" techniques of Energy Psychology to reduce unpleasant symptoms and the regulating techniques of Somatic Experiencing to resolve trauma. As a Master Certified Career Counselor, I also employ a variety of assessment tools, including testing, to help you achieve a more satisfying work life. 

If you are looking for extra support during a challenging situation or feel it's time to move in a new direction, call or email me for a consultation. My diverse roles as Psychotherapist, Career/Life Coach, and Trainer are united by a common purpose: To help you enjoy life by coming to terms with the past, honoring both your gifts and limitations, and increasing your capacity to encounter yourself and others with a curious and open heart.
