Therapists » Licensed Professional Counselor
Grounded in the belief that knowing and being true to oneself is the key to mental health and a meaningful existence, I attempt to provide a safe environment enabling my clients to explorer their deepest feelings, thought, and beliefs. Having a compassionate understanding of human nature and psyche I facilitate the process of self discovery and healing with genuineness and expertise.In the last decade I have gained a particular interest and expertise in working with trauma. Work as well as training has taught me deep appreciation and empathy for the suffering that stems from such extraordinary experience. Being extensively trained in a variety of different approaches to psychotherapy I work from a holistic framework focussing on the body-mind connection and understand body and mind as functionally identical. My preferred methods of working are Body Centered Gestalt Psychotherapy, Psychodrama, Bioenergetics, and EMDR. I work with individuals, couples and groups, facilitating a therapy process designed to help clients to (re)gain a more meaningful and content life. Having received most of my education in Germany I immigrated to the United Sates in 1984 and have been in private practice in Colchester ever since.
