I also believe EMDR is an especially helpful method for moving people towards freedom from debilitating emotional responses.
I really enjoy working with people who want to be helped with painful feelings and experiences that have interfered with their sense of well being. All of us are limited by upsettingly negative emotions that make it harder to accomplish things that would make our lives richer, more comfortable and secure. I base my work on the principles of Mindfulnes Based Cognitive Behavior Therapy. This approach has been shown to be very successful helping anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress, phobias and many other individual and relationship issues. Like most experienced therapists, I also integrate ideas from other approaches whenever appropriate.

I combine my background as a licensed clinical social worker with psychodynamic psychotherapy, Buddhist philosophy, body psychotherapy Core Energetics, Internal Family Systems (IFS), EMDR, CBT and AEDP work (which works with undoing aloneness).
The decision to start therapy is personal and courageous and not always easy. Everyone goes through times when they feel more stressed out, angry, anxious or depressed. It is easier for people to explore their lives and make transformations when they are working with a therapist that they feel comfortable with and trust. My intention is to help you identify the goals you want to work on and to help you understand what is getting in the way of achieving them. I ultimately want to give you a new perspective and look at your underlying belief systems and the repetitive patterns that have been keeping you stuck.

I enjoy engaging individuals and couples seeking a supportive, active, direct, honest collaboration. My goal is to both address uncomfortable, painful conflict or struggles and facilitate more enlivened, loving connections to self and others. Individuals come in confronting challenges in love, work, family, health, school, trauma or loss. In couples therapy, I work with partners young and old, seeking early relationship or premarital counseling or bumping up against difficulty with intimacy and/or sex, parenting partnership, betrayal, infertility, remarriage, step-parenting, money or retirement, and/or on the brink of a break-up.

I believe that my greatest strength is helping people to empower themselves and to engage life in a meaningful way.

We focus on strengths and assets, the positive, infused with a large dose of humor and humanism. Together we examine attitudes and beliefs and what works and what doesn't. At its best psychotherapy is a creative collaboration between the client and therapist about the client's issues.

I believe that each of us has the potential to experience wholeness. Many of us, early on, were forced to exile parts of ourselves, leaving us feeling constricted, fragmented, less than whole. One element of my work is helping people reclaim these lost aspects of self. Using an experiential psychodynamic approach I help people to deal with problematic issues from their current lives as well as to process difficult experiences from their past.

The work of getting to know ourselves more deeply is courageous, and I truly believe that we don’t have to do it alone. My mission is to help women of color and queer folks peel back the layers of life that are weighing on them, live more balanced lives, and as a result, have more fulfilling relationships with others and themselves. Sometimes we have an idea of what that may be and other times we may not, both are normal places to be.

EMDR Therapists
Who is EMDR for?
EMDR was initially developed as a treatment for individuals with Post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), for whom memories of a deeply distressing experience can be inadvertently triggered by random everyday events. The procedure has since been applied in the treatment of many other conditions. For example, it is used by some therapists to treat anxiety disorders including panic and phobias, depression, dissociative disorders, eating disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorders, and some personality disorders. It is suitable for adolescents and adults.
Why do people need EMDR?
People need EMDR as a way to manage distressing memories that in some way hamper the ability to function in the present. The procedure is believed to target the way memories are stored in the brain. Evidence indicates that past disturbing experiences cause ongoing distress because they were not adequately processed, and when such memories are triggered in the present, they are accompanied by all the emotions, thoughts, and physical sensations as the initial experience.
What problems does EMDR treat?
First and foremost, EMDR is intended as a treatment for PTSD, to defuse distressing memories that intrude on and impair everyday functioning. It is also often used to help those who are subject to panic attacks, phobias, and other forms of anxiety. In addition, EMDR has been used to treat individuals with depression, eating disorders, and personality disorders.
What happens in EMDR therapy?
First the therapist takes an individual’s history, and then the therapist and client decide which distressing experience(s) will be the target(s) of the exercise, delivered via a side-to-side visual stimulus requiring lateral eye movements. The client will be asked to activate thoughts, feelings, and any body sensations related to the troubling experience. The eye movements are said to reduce the emotional charge of the memory, so that the experience can then be safely discussed with the therapist and digested, minimizing its ability to trigger anxiety.
