Who I Help

I help individuals and couples of all ages who are suffering from a wide variety of life challenges.

Some of my clients have specific issues that they want to work on, such as:

• Depression, Hopelessness, Lack of Enthusiasm

• Defensive behaviors: Attacking, Clinging, Isolating, Dominating

• Anxiety, Stress, Irritability

• Trauma

• Relationship Issues

• Isolation & Loneliness

• Self-Esteem Issues

• Substance Abuse Issues

• Crisis Issues – Loss of Job/Home, Grief

• Health & Caretaking Issues

• Sleeping, Eating or Sexual Difficulties

Other clients enter therapy because they are experiencing a general sense of un-ease. They feel that they haven’t been functioning to their full capacity and want a more creative and fulfilling life.

Do any of theses scenarios sound familiar?

“I can’t seem to be effective at work. When challenged by authority, I shrink and become a “good girl.” How can I learn to be in my authentic power?”

“I feel very alone, lost and depressed, and I need someone to help me. All of my significant relationships have been very intense and I usually end up being abandoned, which makes me feel very desperate that I’ll never find a life partner. How do I get over my fears and find a stable and loving relationship?”

“My marriage is lifeless and I’m afraid my husband has been cheating on me. We don’t communicate very well, and we have a minimal sex life. How can I move on?”

“I have so much anger towards my mother that is all bottled up inside and bursts out at my girlfriend. I’m afraid I’m going to lose her. What do I do with my anger?”

“I am under so much pressure at school and financially that I am having anxiety attacks. I am afraid that I am going to fail at school. My husband doesn’t understand and doesn’t know how to help me. How can I overcome my anxiety?”

Who I Work Best With

People are drawn to somatic psychotherapy because they recognize that there is a mind/body connection. They often have been in traditional talk therapy yet they continue to struggle with the same issues. They are looking for a different kind of therapy that involves their whole being – their personality and character, and how that relates to the energetic system in their body.

Clients who are successful working with me often possess the following characteristics:

• They are courageous and resolute in facing difficult issues and overcoming suffering.

• They are willing to commit to their own therapeutic process, dig down deeply into self-reflection, and have the capacity to integrate feedback.

• They yearn for genuine contact with others.

• They want to feel more creativity and liveliness in their everyday activities.
