Collaboration Avoids Overwhelm

Counseling is a collaborative effort. It allows you to view a problem without feeling overwhelmed because you have support to help you recognize and reinforce existing strengths, and move through difficulties.

You learn to cultivate new skills that empower you to change old, unwanted patterns of thought and behavior which no longer serve you.

My psychotherapy approach is caring and holistic. Deep listening includes Heart, Mind, Body & Spirit; honoring logic, emotion, and neuro-physiology (mind-body) with the goal of improving and optimizing your whole being.

Experience Counts

glow brain w labelsYou can rely on my more than two decades of professional experience in dealing with anxiety, depression, PTSD or trauma, career or relationship.

I bring advanced training and the latest research in emotional wellness, mindfulness, healing strategies, neuro-biology, holistic well-being, and Gottman relationship methods to address your issues.

Leading-edge, evidenced-based healing strategies help you move beyond micro or macro trauma, and unwelcome habitual thought patterns and behavior.

Up to date methods such as EMDR, ART (watch this video), IFS, EFT, Mindfulness, CBT, and more are utilized to help you heal, restore, enrich, enliven and grow.
