Social and political distress are causing fear and alienation, along with feelings of disempowerment and personal inadequacy with less community for us to count on. My way of working with this is to help clients become more aware of their own internal wisdom and connection to all things. I work with adults experiencing anxiety, depression, relational difficulties or just feeling overwhelmed. Listening to your story and using Somatic Experiencing, a mind/body approach, I work to help you find your sense of balance, curiosity, resilience, engagement, and vitality.
I believe we all have an innate desire to seek pleasure and contentment in our lives, and to create rewarding, mutually supportive relationships. Along with the integration of body centered work, my personal style combines traditional psychotherapy with a more mindful, meditative approach.
My training is in psychodynamic, CBT, DBT, Somatic Experiencing and EMDR. I also use sound to help people create internal harmony. My goal is to help you move past judgments and feelings of inadequacy, by increasing trust in your own organic wisdom. Often, the result is a grounded sense of well-being and a deeper connection to oneself and all things.
