APPROACH:

My approach is based on an empowerment model, which aims to help clients find internal resources for healing and direction. Integrating somatic, expressive, and hypnotic processes allows for a more direct route to discovering and transforming core issues than traditional talk therapy alone. Creative, symbolic, and energetic worlds are tapped into and become powerful tools for change.

I use techniques that are effective for both short and long term therapy. Whether clients have a specific behavior or attitude they want to change or need ongoing support in many areas of their lives, I provide tools that can lead to profound change.
My work integrates many theoretical systems, and primarily stems from Gestalt, Psychosynthesis, Psychodynamic, Cognitive/Behavioral, Jungian and Transpersonal models.

I hold great respect for those who chose to take the journey of self-awareness and healing, and honor those who reach out for help when needed. I offer my commitment to support, to challenge, and most of all to guide clients to find their own truth. The journey of therapy involves taking risks and allowing oneself to be vulnerable. Finding the right therapist to go through this is very important. If either of us feels that someone else may be better suited to meet your needs I help clients find a more appropriate referral.
