My philosophy is that we each know deep-down what is best for ourselves but sometimes need help discovering what that is. As a student of neurobiology and mental health, I stay abreast of current research and enjoy applying the latest knowledge to healing suggestions designed for individual clients. I avidly read research and combine my love of knowledge with a deep respect for feelings and somatic experience.

 

I do not believe in a one-size-fits-all approach and tailor my suggestions to what might be comfortable and helpful for my client at each specific point in their journey. In my work, I ...

​

• provide an empathetic environment,

• help clients understand their situation and reactions,

• help clients connect with their internal experience,

• provide tailored information,

• provide exercises to retrain brains and bodily reactions, and

• provide a new interpersonal experience to retrain patterned childhood reactions that no longer serve clients well.

 

Since every individual is different, I encourage clients to be discerning about finding a therapist who is a good match for their personality and needs. If you and I team up, I will always work to discover what is most helpful and supportive for you. I have a gentle, non-confrontational, empowering approach.
