I have been a therapist for over 20 years. I am committed to offering my clients a space to be heard, respected and encouraged...
to find within themselves the tools and self care needed to feel
greater peace and well being.
I offer couples counseling, relationship therapy,
individual therapy and coaching
I will work with you to help find therapeutic approaches that are best suited for your goals and to your personality.
I have extensive training and experience with several treatment perspectives and styles.
I use an eclectic approach to therapy.
My approach to our collaborative sessions may include some of the following: cognitive behavioral therapy, dialectical behavioral therapy (DBT), acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT), insight oriented therapies, mindfulness skills, trauma informed practices, and attachment style based therapies.
I believe that healthy relationships are a central key to a satisfying life. Our sense of ourselves in relationship to others forms a foundation for how we move through the world and how much confidence and security we tend to feel.
I have a deep commitment to helping people find their voice, set boundaries and understand themselves at a deep level.
I specialize in addressing anxiety, improving or building on self esteem & self respect, using healthy communication skills including being able to recognise and protect boundaries.
Areas of focus along with the above are:
trauma experiences of all types,
pre & postpartum challenges,
healing attachment wounds/childhood wounds,
recovering from unhealthy relationships in the past
and learning to identify the elements of
emotionally satisfying connections now.
and one last note...
Being a human on this planet, and at this time - when work, academic, social and political, climate and other aspects of our existence can be stressful and even overwhelming- is a relevant stressor. This is the context in which we all are working through
our personal challenges and goals.
I try to make sure that we honor those elements together, while finding ways toward greater inner peace and security
so that we can also be in awareness of this life's wondrous beauty.
