I help people understand what may have contributed to feelings of worry, fear, sadness & hopelessness while establishing a new practice of self-acceptance & compassion. These same attributes can then be extended outward to others.

Moving into a process of individuation, for the first time adolescents face the task of establishing their identity as separate from their family.

Child-centered play therapy begins by accepting the child exactly as they are. The therapist holds the highest respect for the child’s ability to solve their own problems.

Specialized Services in EMDR


A significant part of effective Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is assisting in a person’s ability to establish internal personal resources. For example, one resource used in EMDR healing is the creation of a Peaceful Place within oneself, which is done by utilizing bilateral stimulation to solidify a sense of peace and well being in one's brain. Once established this Peaceful Place is available to access and leverage when working with a disturbing memory.
