We're all doing the best we can with what we have to work with. However, life is always changing, and the tools we were given in the past, may not be working for us in the present. Counseling can act as a software update for your mind, clearing out old ideas, unprocessed emotion, and beliefs, that are holding you back from reaching your goals. I use EMDR therapy and other evidence-based modalities in my work. If you want to live your life more than think about it, and if you want your past to stop showing up uninvited in the present; then you may benefit from this unique, innovative, and holistic form of therapy.

I work with individuals and couples of all ages and backgrounds. Experience as a therapist includes community mental health & work with children, teens & parents (primarily in school settings). My therapy focus is on wholeness regardless of the problem, but to provide a context, the work I do addresses residual post-trauma effects, ADD, grief and loss, chronic depression, social (and other forms of) anxiety, and self-integration needs following separation and/or divorce. A therapeutic fit with a good counselor is a huge relief; it helps us recover an inner resilience we either lost or never knew we possessed.

I understand why there has been a recent rise in anxiety and depressive symptoms for many people of all ages. Major events and unexpected life changes can cause a significant amount of stress and anxiety. Stress can make us feel out of control and overwhelmed physically, mentally and emotionally. Things from our past can start to impact us more in our present. Relationships can seem more challenging and trusting ourselves almost impossible. Every person is different and when you take a closer look at every aspect of your life with help from an objective support it can help you see things more clearly and offer ways to cope.

Do you find yourself feeling “stuck”? Repeating the same mistakes over and over again, especially when it comes to your relationships with other people? Unfortunately, when childhood traumas go unresolved, we often find ourselves repeating the patterns of our childhood in our adult relationships with friends, co-workers and significant others. Unresolved trauma effects not just our thoughts and feelings about ourselves, but also how we respond to others.

Attachment-based Therapists
Is attachment-based therapy the same as attachment therapy?
Attachment-based therapy may be confused with what is called “attachment therapy” (sometimes called “holding therapy”), a discredited and dangerous approach to treating children with attachment disorders, autism, or other mental health concerns. Attachment therapy—not attachment-based therapy—may involve restraining a child, forcing eye contact, and other coercive or abusive techniques. None of these practices are used in attachment-based therapy and the two modalities are in no way related.
What should I expect from attachment-based therapy?
Attachment-based therapy is based on attachment theory, which posits that children’s early relationships with their caregivers strongly influence their ability to navigate the world later in life. Thus, adults who seek attachment-based therapy should expect to deeply explore their childhood, identifying the dynamics or experiences that disrupted their attachment and the steps necessary to overcome challenges that arose as a result. Parents and children should expect to explore the possible factors that disrupted the parent-child relationship and work toward restoring trust and connection.
How long does attachment-based therapy last?
Certain forms of attachment-based therapy, especially those designed for parents and children, last for a set number of sessions; for example, Attachment and Biobehavioral Catch-Up, a specific attachment-based approach for young children who have undergone early adversity, unfolds over 10 one-hour sessions. When attachment-based therapy is practiced on adults or combined with other modalities, it may not last a specific length of time; clients may wish to ask prospective therapists how long they expect treatment to take.
Does attachment-based therapy work?
Most of the research on attachment-based therapy focuses on children and adolescents. Some of this research shows a positive effect, especially for attachment-based family therapy (ABFT). Other studies, however, have found that attachment-based therapy is no more effective than other approaches to childhood depression, anxiety, or suicidality. Less is known about the therapy’s efficacy on adult populations.
