Psychotherapy
The relationship between psychotherapist and client is a collaborative one in which a strong alliance is formed. In a most respectful manner, I match therapy to your needs to help you create a better understanding of yourself and your relationships. I use a wide range of modalities and integrate my extensive experience and training with a warm, direct and interactive style to meet your needs. I will help you feel safe and supported as you find your way to a more fulfilling life.

Brainspotting
Brainspotting is a cutting-edge mind-body therapy developed  out of EMDR in 2003 by Dr. David Grand. Through observation of the patients eye gaze, the therapist locates a spot in the brain that hold troubling issues.  The therapist can focus on the activated spot to release emotional blockages and help to process the locked emotions.

Brainspotting  is also used very effectively for Peak Performance Enhancement to find and strengthen the client's natural resources and resilience. As a therapeutic tool it is easily integrated with other therapies.

Brainspotting taps into and harnesses the body's natural self-scanning and self-healing abilities. Where you look affects how you feel.

To find out more about Brainspotting, here is a link to a video of Dr. David Grand explaining how Brainspotting works titled "What is Brainspotting". 
EMDR
EMDR is a psychotherapeutic approach used to quickly and efficiently resolve emotional blocks, trauma, and process felt emotions. It uses a combination of bilateral eye movement or taps and special relaxing music which triggers deeply held memories and feelings.  This activates the brain's natural healing abilities and allows you to reprocess emotions and address issues that were previously  unavailable to you. 

EMDR is also an effective technique to heighten creativity and advance and deepen performances.

Performance Enhancement
EMDR and Brainspotting can help overcome performance anxiety.  Both treatments instill positive outlooks and outcomes for future tasks, challenges and performances.  By establishing feelings of success, confidence, and forward movement, EMDR & Brainspotting can help clients:
  • Enhance performance.
  • Heighten creativity.
  • Break through creative blocks.
  • Overcome stage fright.
  • Gain confidence in public speaking.
  • Eliminate test-taking anxiety.
  • Achieve higher academic goals.
  • Conquer feelings of “being stuck."
No matter what the performance or issue is, Brainspotting and EMDR provide effective approaches to diminish debilitating obstructions and anxieties.  They enable you to achieve a deep sense of relaxation, enhance presentation skills, and deepen your inner strength. As your confidence increases, your true voice rises up and your performance is enhanced.

I specialize in creativity enhancement for artists of all kinds– writers, musicians, professionals and non-professionals. My clients have had amazing results!
