SERVICES
No two therapy experiences are alike. I work with each client to identify their particular aims,
and our work together is responsive to changing needs. Call me to set up a free initial consultation.
HOW DOES IT WORK?
The therapeutic relationship allows client and therapist together to engage in a dialogue that fosters understanding and acceptance, while encouraging emotional growth and shifting old patterns that may be keeping us stuck and suffering. In this non-judgmental space, clients gain new strategies for interacting as well as new perspectives and insights from which to consciously shape their lives.
HOW LONG
DOES IT LAST?
Therapy sessions are scheduled once a week, on a day and time suitable for ongoing meetings. Each session is 50 minutes. There is no recipe specifying when the work is “done.” In some cases, the work might have a relatively narrow focus (for example, addressing concerns prior to a wedding or the birth of a baby). In other cases, the work is more long-term, aiming at ongoing personal growth.

INDIVIDUAL THERAPY
HERE FOR YOU
At different times in life, many people find themselves feeling stuck and distressed, whether in work or in love or in being who they are. Sometimes a life event produces an acute crisis or activates old wounds. I take a relational approach, incorporating EMDR and attachment-focused therapy to create a safe space for clients to heal and grow.
I encourage clients to call for an initial free phone consultation to talk more specifically about what our work together might involve.
WHAT IS EMDR?
EMDR is the abbreviation for Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing. It is an approach to psychotherapy that helps reduce the distress associated with a variety of traumatic experiences by helping the client process disturbing material in new and less disturbing ways. EMDR uses eye movements or other forms of bilateral stimulation (tapping or sound, for example) to provide a dual attention while the client focuses on the distressing material. The dual attention helps shift feelings, thoughts, and sensations so that they are more integrated with normal information processing and less emotionally charged. EMDR is offered as a stand-alone technique by some therapists. In my practice, EMDR sessions supplement talk therapy for those clients who are interested and for whom it is appropriate.
