It is my passion and privilege to assist my clients in feeling alive, connected and at peace in their relationships and within themselves. Every day I hear clients say that our work has truly transformed their lives - that they are no longer triggered by old patterns, that their confidence and happiness is greater than they have ever experienced. Changes such as these are possible through a collaborative exploration of past and present issues in an atmosphere of safety, compassion and respect - respect for the individual and respect for the mind's ability to heal.
Issues rooted in childhood or present trauma and attachment (the relationships with caregivers from childhood through young adulthood) are often the source of anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, eating disorders and addictions, and complex post-truamatic stress disorders even when such a connection is not immediately recognized.
EMDR and IFS (Internal Family Systems) offer effective and often rapid relief from depression, anxiety, panic attacks, distressing memories, nightmares, etc. as a result of unmet developmental or attachment needs or other traumatic events. IFS Therapy offers healing from virtually any substance and/or behavioral addiction.
