A large part of my life's purpose is to help women, men, and couples cope with and heal from life's traumas. I believe in therapy as a way to heal, starting with a caring relationship. Accidents, health issues, disease, child abuse (sexual, physical, emotional, or neglect), family problems, grief and loss, etc. can be traumatic. Problems add up and cause complex layers of stress and challenge over time. People say that I am warm and caring, I listen carefully, am patient, sensitive, and don't give up. I pay special attention to making the space safe for you.
I work with complex traumas as well as clear cut problems. Trauma therapy is deeply personal. I offer you respect, acceptance, and hope in knowing that there are many tools to cope with the emotions that arise in working out your trauma.
I use techniques such as EMDR to deepen and shorten your therapy, Focusing Oriented Therapy for awareness and somatic healing, Writing Therapy, for finding your voice, Restorative Yoga, for grounding and connecting with your body. These techniques are optional depending on what you need and want.

Groups
Writing for healing
In this group, we create a safe space to write and share. No critiquing of the writing occurs, rather, there is support, discussion about meaning, and appreciation of each other. Writing is a powerful healing tool. In the group environment there is empathy, shared experience, and witness for pain as well as achievements and progress. I usually bring a poem that we read and discuss, and warm-up writing exercises or prompts. Men and women are welcome. No writing experience needed.
