At the Partnership for Trauma Recovery we believe that true healing happens when we find the courage to look at the root of the long standing patterns and difficulties we have. While learning to cope with the daily burdens of these patterns is an important skill, our philosophy is that simply learning to manage only places a bandage on the problem. In order to truly heal we have to look deeper into ourselves and try to determine where these patterns developed.

There are times in life when something is bothering us and we can’t understand why we are perpetually distressed by this situation or event. Why do we keep going over and over the problem only to come to the same conclusion and, yet, still feel unfulfilled? What’s wrong? It helps to share these complex thoughts and feelings with others who can help give new perspective and create meaning where there seems to be none.

I am taking on new clients at this time, so please reach out if interested! I work with some insurances (but not all) and will see folks in person or via zoom.
I use an informal, down to earth approach so clients can feel comfortable working collaboratively to "name the elephant" in the client's life, drill down to the core of issues and discover how patterns from the past repeat in the present. I am passionate about challenging stuck points, old habits and outdated beliefs with care, compassion and respect. I am never afraid to bring humor into a session when appropriate as I value the healing properties of laughter.

Welcome! In this very moment you're choosing to be on your journey. My therapeutic philosophy is to facilitate and support your body's innate healing response through the applications of EMDR, (EMDRIA.ORG) and heart-centered therapies. EMDR in particular works to liberate clients from past trauma memories whether that be small "t" trauma or big 'T" trauma and to transform a person's subconscious beliefs thus "turning down the volume" on negative memories/negative beliefs and transforming those subconscious beliefs back into positive core beliefs so that you may become your highest aspect of yourself.

*ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS AND OFFERING TELEHEALTH* Many Moons is a small group practice of 5 arts-based clinicians. By combining art making with psychotherapy, the creative process can be a safe holding container for personal content as well as a pathway to explore current struggles. Arts-based modalities include common materials like drawing, painting, clay sculpture and jewelry. We can introduce you to narrative expressions through mixed-media collage, music, poetry, and guided imagery/meditation. A photo gallery of client artwork is available at www.manymoonstherapy.org.

We often look at what we have in our lives and tell ourselves that nothing’s wrong, while simultaneously feeling as though nothing is right. Feelings of uncertainty are common during periods of transitional life changes. While new beginnings are often viewed as exciting, they are also filled with doubt and the unknown. The what if's begin to creep in, and the future feels paralyzing. It is a scary place to be, and you don’t have to be there alone.

I am a seasoned clinician who has worked with adults, couples and families for over 30 years. Increased awareness leads to increased options. Often the work of therapy is about making or repairing connections--interpersonal, internal or perhaps even spiritual. I provide individual adult psychodynamic psychotherapy; couples counseling: marital, pre and post divorce. I use a multi modal approach often including assessment and treatment from a family systems perspective and a psychodynamic perspective. I reserve a portion of my practice to provide a safe and intriguing space for children to express themselves and to be understood by adults. Facilitated parent-child sessions often help.

My goal is to co-create a trusting relationship in which you can begin to explore and change the difficult patterns that have kept you from living to your fullest potential and happiness. We will work to understand the ways in which your history may have informed and limited your life and relationships (both with self and others). We will also look at how to transform, heal, and grow in the here and now; to respond rather than react when caught up in overwhelming emotions or negative thought patterns. I utilize a non-pathologizing and practical approach that includes mindfulness, self-compassion, and childhood trauma recovery.
