My Areas of Expertise
Counseling
Compassionate, intuitive attachment based therapy to help you process current and past issues that may be in your way and gain new perspectives. I have specialized in healing the effects of trauma since 1986. These include but are not limited to PTSD, Anxiety, Depression and OCD. Please see below for more information about the therapies that we may use.

EMDR Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing
"Getting Past Your Past" Francine Shapiro, creator of EMDR
A state of the art therapy originally designed (and highly researched) to alleviate the physical, mental and emotional distress associated with traumatic memories. EMDR facilitates this within a healing protocol by very gently alternately stimulating the right and left frontal hemispheres of the brain through light, sound and hand tapping. All of this is within your control. Rapid release of trauma is accomplished, plus the discovery of hidden internal resources, enhanced self-esteem and feelings of safety. EMDR can also be used for performance enhancement.

Emotional Transformation Therapy - ETT
"Healing at the Speed of Light" ETT Byline
ETT works much like EMDR with several additions. Most notable ETT uses wavelengths of light (color) to help the brain release distress and develop more positive neural networks. ETT does this with a set of tools and the client/therapist attachment based relationship. t. As this occurs the physical symptoms of distress are often eliminated.

The Eden Method
"Everything is made of energy". Albert Einstein, Quantum Physics
Formerly known as Eden Energy Medicine, EEM is a comprehensive method to aid in healing and through our energies. Much of the Eden Method is based on the meridian system of Traditional Chinese Medicine. We use applied kinesiology as an assessment tool. Practitioners incorporate hands-on work if desired, and teach simple exercises and postures to aid in healing. Clients leave sessions with powerful tools to continue their own self-healing. www.edenenergymedicine.com
Resonance Repatterning
"We are wired for wellness and the vitality of a spiral up life. When you change what you resonate with you change your life." Chloe Faith Wordsworth, creator of Resonance Repatterning.
Using a series of statements and assessing their truth to our system with kinesiology, RR identifies the physical and emotional patterns, imbalances and beliefs we energetically resonate with and utilizes simple techniques and positive self care to change our energetic resonance to what we desire. www.resonancerepatterning.net
My Approach
We all experience life and relate to our challenges, beliefs and memories differently.
In collaboration with you I choose the methods listed as well as some other tools from my psychotherapy training and experience that I think will be most useful to assist you in healing, growing and accomplishing your goals.
I use a gentle, intuitive and playful approach with humor and fun whenever possible!
