My Services
Individual Counseling
I work with adults of any age on a variety of issues. Some of the issues clients bring are: CPTSD, Co-dependency, developmental issues, self esteem, family problems, parenting challenges, divorce, school concerns, depression and anxiety. Often clients come in feeling stuck, helpless and overwhelmed . Most often problems are complex and involve many areas of your life. In this one to one setting we can build a rapport quickly to get to the root of the problem. Understanding the root and the various components, helps me educate, provide tools and support you in working toward the solution.
EMDR
EMDR stands for Eye Movement Desensitizaton and Reprocessing. It is a specific tool that I use to help clients understand how their past experiences can affect thoughts and emotions today. We as people, decide things about ourselves all along our developmental path and those thoughts get locked into what we believe about ourselves and the world around us. This technique helps to gently highlight the negative beliefs and emotions and reprocess them in a more positive way. It can be especially helpful in dealing with lifelong negative beliefs and Trauma recovery. Learn more here: www.emdria.org
Relationship Recovery Counseling
Perhaps you find yourself in a relationship that feels imbalanced. You can not put your finger on the problem but something is wrong and you're not sure how to approach the problem. All of your tools have had little to no impact, or seem to have made the problem worse. This is not like any relationship you have encountered before, or perhaps it is exactly like a relationship you would like to forget! Together we can understand the contributing factors and find solutions to the issues. (see more on Relationship tab above)
Integrative Medicine for Mental Health
​
Integrative medicine is an approach to care that puts the client at the center and addresses the full range of physical, emotional, mental, social, spiritual and environmental influences that affect a person’s health. Employing a personalized strategy that considers the client’s unique conditions, needs and circumstances, it uses the most appropriate interventions from an array of disciplines to heal illness and disease and help people regain and maintain optimum health.
Professional Consultation
I specialize in working with people who are struggling to understand the dynamics of their relationships. These often follow a specific pattern and include partners who have tendencies toward toxic or high conflict behaviors or those on the personality disorder spectrum. It requires specific understanding and often counter intuitive strategies for therapists to help clients navigate such situations. If this sounds like one of your clients and you want support--- I can help!
​
In addition I have a great deal of expertise and planning, developing and implementing my own private practice. I can help you with starting yours!​
Supervision for Associates
I believe that as a supervisor, I have three roles to play; that of teacher, counselor and consultant. As teacher, I will provide information and instruct on specific techniques or rules and regulations. As counselor, I will help supervisees in identifying their own difficult spots or countertransference process. And as consultant, I will offer supportive guidance that will eventually develop into a peer relationship.
