To develop as adults, each one of us needs experienced support as we navigate the challenging passages of life.
As an extensively trained, deep listener, I offer psychotherapy, hypnotherapy and supportive counseling for adults who know they are responsible for their experience of life.
Are you looking to live more fully, with greater awareness and greater understanding of yourself?
I work with students, professionals, educators, counselors, artists, mothers and fathers. My clients come to feel more relaxed, to release old patterns of behavior that no longer serve them, and to bring more of themselves to their relationships and creative expression.
Most people are not aware that:
To ultimately be deeply at home in yourself, you will need to encounter some difficult feelings. It is a part of our human condition. Repressing uncomfortable feelings is unhealthy in the long run. Acting out of painful emotions, or reacting, creates unwanted consequences.
Unprocessed childhood trauma requires a commitment of attention to process and heal.
Behavior change comes quickly when the unconscious is brought in to awareness.
Hypnotherapy can work quicker than talk therapy, and more can be accomplished in fewer sessions.
All hypnosis is self-hypnosis, a relaxed state that gives you access to memories, images and feelings not normally available in waking consciousness.
Hypnotherapy is very different from the entertainment of stage hypnotists.
A mental health diagnosis in not necessary to receive psychotherapy services.
Fees are negotiable. I love this work and want to serve those called to work with me. Financial limitations need not limit your ability to receive this kind of self-care. I encourage you to ask for what you need, and value the service to your ability.
Phone sessions can be quite effective when face to face meetings are not possible.
I alway offer:
Deep listening, backed by many years of ongoing training and a rich professional network.
A heart-centered approach
A safe space for holding all of your experiences
Value for your resources of time and money
An honoring of your intention and commitment to move forward in your life.
