| Practice Description: |
I work collaboratively with individuals, couples, & families to help them cultivate a deeper self-awareness, discover new ways of expression, transform dysfunctional patterns, have more satisfying relationships and ensue a more meaningful life. Research has shown having purpose and meaning in life increases overall wellbeing and life satisfaction, improves mental and physical health, enhances resiliency and self-esteem, and decreases the chances of depression.
My systemic, non-judgmental, holistic and integrative process integrates family structure, relationship dynamics, specific cognitive- behavioral, experiential, Internal family systems, EMDR and spirituality/mindfulness approaches. Words that embody my beliefs and values in the therapeutic relationship are acceptance, respect, empathy, perspective, challenge, meaning & change.
My specialty includes, but is not limited to: couples communication, sexual & emotional intimacy, individual counseling, family life stage issues, developmental trauma, ambiguous grief & loss, cancer-related issues, PTSD, adjustment disorders, and sexual issues including sexual addictions and sexual trauma.
