Offerings and Services

Therapy

I am passionate about my work, and that makes me deeply interested and dedicated. I combine knowledge and neuroscience with experiential practices, and reflective dialogue. My approach is kind, curious, while offering clear guidance and tools to help you grow strengths and resources that will enhance your health and relationships.

As part of my practice, I consult about my clients progress with highly recognized teachers and clinicians. Every year I continue to study highly advance courses and specialties, and apply the latest research to my work in therapy sessions.

I do my own work and growth! I have been a client in therapy in all the specialties that I offer. This gives me a depth of work that can't be acquired by just studying.

One of the best predictors for positive outcomes of therapy is a collaborative relationship between therapists and clients. I am very engaged during our therapy sessions and ask of my clients to be active participants too.
