My experience includes work with children, youth, and adults seeking healing and resolution of various concerns including: bereavement, grief and loss, trauma and abuse, depression, anxiety, attachment challenges, adoption issues and  family transitions. My clients  impress me with their courage and resilience. Together we go on a journey to  work toward healing and self discovery.  I seek to use my client’s own skills and awareness to address and overcome the blockages in their life paths. I offer an eclectic approach to therapy  and use tools such as EMDR when appropriate to heal and move past blocks. EMDR is an amazing tool for treating trauma. It works equally effectively for one time trauma or long term, multiple incident abuse. Talk therapy is very important, but sometimes words alone can’t heal psychic wounds.  Sometimes emotional experiences ‘get stuck in our bodies’  becoming physically embodied causing distress.  Combining talk therapy with body-centered modalities for some might  be the key to full healing.  With EMDR,  the hope is to develop calmness and  inner peace.  Clients who have experienced trauma are healed from intense anxiety,  depressed feelings and negative beliefs about themselves.
