If you begin to understand what you are without trying to change it, then what you are undergoes a transformation.
- J. Krishnamurthi
We do not have to do hard things alone. I engage my individual clients in conversations impossible to have alone. Together, we look into your past experiences, present dilemmas and future hopes within a trusted, collaborative, therapeutic relationship. I help you gain insight and promote lasting change. I treat a range of issues, and find my clients’ therapy often focuses on:
Awareness Building and Self-Growth
Challenges Working in Creative Fields
Men’s Issues
Life Transitions
Identity Issues
Anxiety
Attachment Disruptions
Postpartum Adjustment
Low Self Esteem
Overcoming Narcissistic Abuse
The single most significant factor in life satisfaction is the quality of our relationships. Being in them can be challenging, however relationships hold the power to heal us and infuse life with joy. How many of our most blissful and most painful experiences were born out of relationship to another? My work with couples, including non-romantic partnership, revolves around gaining awareness of maladjusted patterns standing in the way of peaceful connection. Once identified, we move to the brave work of becoming the guardian of your partner’s emotional well-being and designing new patterns. Issues commonly addressed are:
Communication
Life Transitions - New Parenting, Career Changes, Bereavement
Trust
Intimacy
Infidelity
Mutuality
Co-Regulation
EMDR is an evidence based, somatic and neurological therapy using bilateral stimulation to diminish traumatic triggers and reprocess unresolved trauma. I help you develop tools to gain internal resources, integrate trauma and reduce reactivity. When you engage in EMDR, you can expect less anxiety and emotion associated with adverse experiences. In my practice, I use EMDR to address:
Traumas - Single Episode, Attachment, Physical, Sexual, Birth, Emotional. etc.
Adverse Life Experiences
High Anxiety
Panic Attacks
