Therapists » Clinical Social Work/Therapist
I provide counseling for people of all ages who are struggling to find peace within themselves. We often find ourselves stuck within the grip of anxiety and depression due to the impact of unresolved trauma. These traumatic events can be either "big" or "small," yet they can interfere with the ability to live and love fully. It is possible to learn to love the unlovable and accept the unacceptable through a growth in awareness and compassion towards all that we are. I specialize in the treatment of trauma using EMDR therapy, the Hakomi Method and a compassionate presence. Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is widely recognized as an effective form of trauma treatment. One of the elements is bilateral stimulation using either eye movements, tones or taps. This process enables you to experience new insights and associations, and changes in memories that have previously been triggering. I have experienced quick and effective results using EMDR therapy with survivors of childhood abuse, domestic violence and victims of crime. I am also trained in the Hakomi Method, a mindfulness-based somatic therapy. These therapies can help you in the process of reclaiming your power and your life.
