About
My passion lies in working with adults, adolescents, and families. My experience has been working on a variety of issues including trauma, mood d/o, anxiety, self-exploration and understanding how our thinking affects our feelings and behavior. I enjoy assisting patients with identifying messages taken from life experiences that drive our choices and behavior in order to give each individual a better understanding of self. It is this understanding that brings awareness of habituated behavior patterns, effective communication skills and balance in our daily lives. Skills that are useful to patients outside of the therapeutic setting. My specialty is trauma [Developmental Trauma and Post Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)] and resolving the symptoms from distressing events. I am able to assist each patient with: understanding their symptoms, their reactivity to their distressing event, what to expect as they recover, how to seek support, and how to change their automatic negative thinking. I am an Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) Complex Trauma and Dissociation Specialist, trained in Hypnotherapy, and Trauma Focused CBT and Meyers Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI) Qualified. My theoretical orientation lies in Cognitive Behavioral Therapy with a strength based approach. Including Dialectical Behavioral Therapy and Mindfulness.
