"The way out is through" - Robert Frost. As human beings navigating this complex world, we often avoid problems as a form of self-protection. In order to find more contentment in our lives, it is essential that we face our difficulties in a safe environment. I enjoy working with adults struggling with self-esteem, addictive behaviors, self-care, life-transitions, childhood trauma, parenting/step-parenting, relationship issues and more. I utilize an empathetic, genuine and kind approach in session creating a safe space for people to work through and explore their difficulties.
As a former actress/comedian, I often use humor to assist in calming client's anxieties and revealing what is beneath the surface. My artistic background and extensive personal knowledge of the media's impact on individuals and society also influences my work.
I am trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing). EMDR therapy is a clinically proven and effective treatment option for people suffering from anxiety, panic, PTSD, or trauma. Together we can decide if EMDR may be helpful for you.
