Counseling is caring, collaborative and tailored to you. As you go through the process, you find more emotional ease, clarity, joy and a renewed sense of purpose. Previous sorrows heal as life begins to feel like what you had hoped for, along with new and enjoyable experiences. Therapy supports peace, fulfillment and movement forward. I have successfully helped numerous people from diverse backgrounds to make lasting life changes.

Treatment Approach
- Art Therapy Uses creative activities like drawing, painting, or sculpture as a way to express emotions. It is especially helpful when words are hard to find.
- Drama Therapy Uses role-play, storytelling, and theater techniques to explore problems and emotions. It helps people practice new ways of relating to others.
- Eclectic Therapy Draws from different therapeutic methods based on what fits each client best. It is flexible and personalized rather than following one single model.
- Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) A structured therapy that uses guided eye movements to help process traumatic memories. It is widely recognized for treating PTSD and trauma-related conditions.
- Hypnotherapy Uses guided relaxation and focus to access the subconscious mind. It is often used for habits, anxiety, and pain management.
- Internal Family Systems (IFS) Helps clients heal by working with different ‘parts’ of themselves, like inner critics or wounded children. It fosters harmony within the self.
- Narrative Therapy Encourages people to view problems as separate from themselves and reframe their life story. It helps build resilience and self-identity.
- Person-Centered Therapy (Rogerian) Emphasizes empathy, unconditional positive regard, and authenticity. It provides a safe space for self-discovery and growth.
- Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) Focuses on solutions and future goals rather than past problems. It is practical, short-term, and goal-driven.
- Somatic Therapy Helps clients notice how emotions are stored in the body. It uses breath, movement, and awareness for healing trauma and stress.
Approach Description: With a variety of trauma-informed tools, (options including IFS, EMDR, somatic based approaches, hypnotherapy and expressive arts), you will be given compassionate support to shift patterns that are not serving your peace of mind and soul. Your time in sessions will include careful listening, thoughtful insight, and intuitive understanding so change feels personal, genuine and sustainable. Reach out for a free 15 minute consultation.
