Welcome! As your therapist, I am here to help you achieve the vision that you have for your life. However, what brings most people to therapy are issues and struggles. Together, we can alleviate them and then go for what you really want. I have 35 years of experience in helping clients do so. I have been a Licensed Professional Counselor in Private Practice since 1990. My Masters degree is in Counseling Psychology from The University of Texas in Austin.
My approach is very holistic. It is a blend of Eastern wisdom disciplines, success coaching and Western Psychology. My style is empathic, interactive and supportive. I specialize in using a mind/body technique called Somatic Experiencing which alleviates trauma and stress. I also teach clients meditation if desired.
We will establish your goals in the first session. I will also do an assessment to find out what issues you want to address, gather history and explore what has lead to the impasse in which you find yourself. We will work with your emotions and problem-solve together. If there are traumas or stress in your life, I offer Somatic therapy to help regulate your nervous system. Through these processes, you will be able to break through old barriers and feel more complete within yourself.
