Find a Therapist in Englewood, Florida.

Coming to therapy can be scary and overwhelming. There is still a stigma attached to getting mental health treatment. Opening yourself up to a stranger or someone you recently met can make people feel vulnerable and exposed. I treat each person I see as a unique human being with their own struggle(s) preventing them from being who they want to be. I utilize different techniques with everyone to help them feel at peace and feel internal and external safety. This helps them act intentionally in their daily lives.

I work with an entire person--the mind, emotions, body, spirit, relationships. I offer an alternative approach to traditional psychotherapy because sometimes we are stuck beyond our thoughts. I believe we are often stuck beyond how we think about something, but by how our body holds and remembers the experiences. After all, we feel the anxiety in our chest, shoulders or stomach. When we are depressed, we struggle to move, sleep, concentrate etc. I work to remove the block from wherever it is stuck. My clients come to me after years of ineffective therapy. They are looking for more than talking about their struggles or identifying how they think about them in favor of a change in living.

You know things seem off track yet can't seem to identify why. Things feel OFF! When we work together, we will gently learn the core of the distress that you are experiencing. As we learn your life history, we may find that some of the distress is rooted in early childhood trauma and attachment wounding. We will embrace and cherish all parts of yourself and learn about the challenging messages you may have grown up with that manifested into the distress you feel today. Distress can be a messenger, an alarm telling you that it is time to heal experiences from earlier in life. In our work together, we'll use EMDR, Emotion Focused Therapy and Expressive Arts to help you thrive.

As licensed psychotherapists, we provide a safe and supportive therapeutic environment for helping our clients to process emotions, traumas, and explore their personal experiences to gain insight and make progress toward their goals. Processing your experiences in psychotherapy has many benefits, including lessening undesirable symptoms, increasing positive emotions, improving outlook on life and helping you to understand yourself and your life better. We will utilize psychotherapy techniques tailored to your specific needs to assist you in getting closer to where you would like to be.

Are you uncertain as to what kind of therapy you want? Not sure as to what sort of therapist will help you the most? I can help you answer these questions. As a highly trained clinical psychologist, I am here to help you find the help you need. And whether our work is short or long term, together we can bring you that much closer to the support you deserve.

James Hillman once said, "We've had a hundred years of psychotherapy and the world is getting worse." While there are many occasions where the validation and listening endemic to psychotherapy makes sense, there are times where we over assume that "feeling better" and "changing behavior" are the same. Grey Matters International, Inc. goes after the forgotten brain laws to behavior change that therapists miss when processing hours and hours of dialogues with people. Utilizing a cutting edge technology to facilitate the emotional process of change, we can make the therapy process way more effective, faster, and with less money spent.
