I have a specialty in trauma but work with a broad range of individuals including those struggling with anxiety, depression, relationship issues and existential concerns. I integrate psychodynamic and mindfulness approaches in the work I do with clients. I not only think it is important to understand how the past impacts the present and to make the unconscious, conscious but I believe that it is equally important to help clients learn to pay attention to thoughts, feelings, physical sensations and breath in the present moment so that they can better understand, tolerate, and ultimately move beyond, their distress.

Certification trauma recovery with Pia Mellody The Meadows Trauma & Addictions Treatment Facility.
Welcome to my site. I offer each client my passion for becoming their best self. I have found my years of experience with counseling individuals with death loss has prepared me to help others with all types of loss in their lives. I find that how one functions in the present has much to do with one's history. I use a client's history as a road map for healing today's issues. I counsel many individuals with histories of grief and loss,trauma, addictions, and relational challenges.

I specialize in EMDR therapy to help individuals move through trauma.
Are you feeling stuck, empty, or disconnected? You may be working harder than necessary because you are fighting against patterns that developed over years. If you find yourself getting stuck in the same patterns, in spite of yourself, there is a way to break free... to have peace about your past and to feel excitement and hope about your future. We all have wisdom and courage within us, but at times, we need help reconnecting with those strengths, and tools to move through difficult issues. If you're committed to breaking the cycle, contact me to take the first step.

I am a transpersonal psychotherapist and I specialize in PTSD and trauma. The body and nervous system is where trauma gets "stuck" and stored. Therefore, in order for healing to occur, we must work with the body as well as the mind! Through awareness of limiting beliefs and unhealthy thoughts, coupled with the wisdom of the body, healing happens! No matter what, I believe that Healing Is Always Possible!

I work with individuals who have experienced trauma, addiction, and loss.
All of us have the innate ability to heal and be free from any troubling condition. This includes the little things like loneliness and confusion as well as the big things like addiction and grief; it's all life. Tackling these issues alone is very difficult and goes against our nature. Together, we can identify the source of your current dilemma. I will engage: I will walk with you as we develop ways for you to become clear, strong, and in charge of your own life. My willingness and experience can be the necessary extra ingredient for your healing.

I take a trauma-informed approach, meaning I have an understanding of how trauma impacts the body, brain, and spirit.
Are you feeling stressed, worried, or down? I work with people who feel stuck, weighed down, or emotionally on edge. Often, these feelings are related to traumatic or upsetting life events. These experiences can be big or small, have happened recently or many years ago. Often, it feels like the mind is constantly running, making sleep difficult and emotions either overwhelming or numb. I help people find relief through understanding and reprocessing. We will collaborate to uncover your unique experience and development in a society structured by forces which perpetuate racism, sexism, and heteronormativity.

Due to specializing in trauma and EMDR, I will often view current challenges through the lens of past experience.
Often, we embark on the journey of self-exploration and become caught in a mirage of questioning. Aware that previous life experiences have impacted currently presenting challenges, patterning of behavior, and relationships, and yet we continue on to engage in what we thought we learned to be correct. You have begun broadening your awareness and yet, something still seems to be nagging. This is when we are maybe feeling the readiness to uncover roots and shift away from operating out of the past.

I help moms of infants and toddlers rediscover themselves, process grief and trauma from unexpected birth experiences, and feel connected and grounded in their lives.
When things don't go as expected during or after giving birth, you may feel resentful or wonder why it seems so easy for other moms. Friends and family say things like "at least you have a healthy baby," and while you know they have the best of intentions, it just feels like no one gets it. The period after giving birth is wild, and it makes sense that you don't feel like yourself. It's time to stop suffering in silence, stop beating yourself up, and reach out for help. It takes a village!
