My own personal journey of healing has included deep work in the family systems tradition, as well as Transpersonal Psychology, Internal Family Systems & EMDR. I have a great appreciation for the feeling side of human nature, and I encourage the use of creativity, spontaneity, metaphor and playfulness in the therapeutic process. Relationship dynamics, the life of the soul and Art in all her forms are important to me.
My clinical training includes: a Masters of Science in Family Therapy, Level 2 Eye-Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR), Brainspotting (BSP), Interpersonal Neurobiology (IPNB), Advanced Training in Emotionally-Focused Couples Therapy (EFT), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy (AEDP) Level 1. Since 2010 I have worked with individuals, couples, families and groups in schools, agencies, and a private practice setting.
