You are well on your way to your recovery, as you have taken a very important step towards your healing today. I help support my clients by listening to their concerns and helping to support them in a safe space. You are not alone, I look forward to helping you in your journey. Let's schedule your session to discuss what your need for support maybe.

My goal is to help clients create lives that express who they truly are by recognizing, welcoming, and making room for every part of that person within the therapeutic relationship. This creates a safe space where healing can unfold. I invite them to experience themselves in new ways, to rediscover their disowned parts, to learn new skills; to build healthier, more nurturing relationships; and to gain access to their own direct experience of the world ~ perhaps for the first time. I nurture this collaboration by recognizing that each individual already possesses all the wisdom he or she needs to love, to connect, and to thrive. I am also a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional.

Counselors often use cognitive behavioral therapy with clients. During episodes of anxiety or depression, people frequently exhibit extreme thinking patterns, and cognitive therapy can help them bring their thinking into perspective. If a counselor feels that issues from long ago (for example, trauma or childhood neglect) are emerging as anxiety or depression, she may employ EMDR. Other types of therapy include solution-focused brief therapy and mindfulness therapy can be used.

I offer brief, results-oriented psychotherapy. My approach is to identify and resolve how specific, unresolved upsetting or traumatic events are getting activated in present day situations and contributing to negative beliefs about yourself in certain situations or repetitive, self-sabotaging patterns in your personal relationships or at work. I have advanced training and experience in helping clients understand and heal from many types of distressing events. Often we think these experiences are not a big deal or no longer influencing us, but they often compromise your ability to be yourself, achieve your goals and enjoy life more. See the Client Reviews section of my website for more.

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.
