Working with Me

For nearly 20 years, I've been working with adults, teenagers, couples, and families to help them work through personal obstacles and achieve greater emotional freedom. In our work together, you can expect a blend of “talk therapy” along with other progressive tools that include EMDR, the Sedona Method, HeartMath, body-energy, and other highly effective techniques. My clients have often said that this therapeutic “toolkit” allowed them to achieve more rapid improvement and longer-lasting results than more traditional methods.

It's well understood that successful therapy is strongly linked to the strength of the relationship between client and therapist. In fact, many studies have shown that the client's connection with and trust in the therapist are the most important factors in healing. My clients often report that my ability to quickly “get” them and their issues was critically important to their success in therapy. New clients typically leave their first session with a new feeling of hope that is the spark for continued success in therapy. I have found that this early connection, coupled with a therapeutic style that is active and solution-focused, leads to outstanding results for my clients.
