My clients describe me as:
Empowering ~ Insightful ~ Skillful ~ Compassionate ~ Understanding “I am thankful for you everyday!” “I love how you can translate me to myself!”
Something to know about my approach is:
With over 100 empowering tools in my therapeutic toolkit, clients enjoy experimenting in and between sessions to discover which stress-management strategies work best for them as their understanding, empowerment and self-compassion blossom.
Together, we will:
foster rapidly-effective yet gentle recovery from trauma and distress for restoration of joyous aliveness through individualized psychoeducation and customized holistic experiential opportunities for healing and growth.
I specialize in working with people who:
are highly-motivated to create a wonderful new life, even if they’ve been suffering greatly their whole lives. I know that the nervous system (as the mind/body interface) is hard-wired for healing and “it’s never too late to have a happy childhood”.
I became a therapist because:
I realized that we have great potential to heal and grow under safe, supportive conditions with adequate resources, including effective skills.
Something that stands out about where I offer therapy is:
Teletherapy now makes it possible to engage in therapy from the comfort of your own home or anywhere in HI w/ adequate reception for secure connection
