Many people come to me because they feel "stuck" despite having been in therapy that is primarily talking with the therapist . Change is hard but not impossible. I have helped people in my 35+years of clinical practice to alter their lives and feel "lighter " and transformed. I have been trained in the newer cutting edge therapies i.e. EMDR, IFS, sensorimotor psychotherapy, coherence therapy and AEDP that guide people to permanently replace the old seemingly intransigent painful unconscious emotional learnings which underlie ones feelings, beliefs and actions with new adaptive information. The establishment of a trusting relationship that provides safety in in sharing whatever one is experiencing is my top priority. There is "no shaming or blaming" I encourage compassion, curiosity, and humor. To reclaim your authenticity, aliveness and vitality, contact me.
