My Approach As A Psychotherapist
I have worked as a therapist for over 30 years and I provide individual therapy to help clients move through life’s transitions. My gentle approach and varied applied therapy techniques support clients to heal past traumas. The methods I’ve found most helpful with clients are focusing and inner child work. Focusing is most effective getting to the heart of the matter in a gentle way by healing where feelings and trauma are carried in the body. Often this leads to healing of the inner child where trauma was first experienced. I use
Gestalt methods, guided imagery and breath work as needed for the client. My approach allows clients to reduce and eliminate anxiety, stress, depression, anger, sexual abuse issues and low self-esteem in a safe and confidential therapeutic environment. Using these varied tools often accelerates the healing with clients over traditional talk therapy.
My Style
My style incorporates active and compassionate listening, collaborative exploration, and a sense of humor when appropriate. My style empowers clients to feel comfortable and open up to the therapy process. I offer both in-person and phone appointments.
If I can answer any questions about my approach or how my experience might benefit you, please feel free to contact me.
