My Approach

I have trained in various effective, evidence-based models, and over the years have gravitated towards using EMDR, Flash Technique (subconscious processing) and Ego State therapy (parts work) as my main treatment modalities. The reason for this is that I have found this combination to be the most effective and humane in quickly resolving emotions that are keeping us stuck.

In addition, I am passionate about helping people develop processing tools that they can continue to use after therapy ends. I am trained in Trauma Sensitive Mindfulness and follow the research that is available on Open focus meditation. These two forms of meditation have been shown to improve our mental and physical health, reduce stress, and increase our ability to sit with painful emotions. In addition, meditation can be used as a way to mentally rehearse our new ways of thinking and acting, as we work toward change. My aim is to help people adopt and integrate meditation and therapy skills into their daily lives, so that anyone can become self-sufficient in managing their mental health.
