Helping people identify what their needs are and finding ways to meet those needs is an integral part of my work. Working holistically, (mind, body, spirit) we collaborate to identify both the strengths and the obstacles to getting their needs met. Whether the issues are relational, anxiety centered, or grief and loss, clients are valued and heard. I incorporate mindfulness into my work which helps clients gain insight and gather new tools for healing and living life more fully.

I am trained in EMDR,(for trauma and PTSD) and have 14 years of experience of trauma based and sexual abuse healing work. In addition I teach MBSR, Mindfulness Based Stress Reduction, an eight week, meditation based program to help alleviate anxiety and pain.

MBSR is an eight-week meditative practice course that helps reduce stress and relieve chronic pain. Highly researched, other benefits of MBSR include increased awareness, self-discovery and an enhanced sense of well being. Guided instruction in a variety of meditative practices, gentle yoga and inquiry exercises, combined with home practice result in an improved ability to cope with life stressors.
