Practice Description: Everyone has the potential to live in a state of enthusiasm, joy and love. I help you realize that potential. I have a holistic approach to therapy. I use mind/body approaches to help you make the inner connections that can set you free of patterns that are causing problems. Body-centered therapy is effective because as you notice the expressions of your physical body, you begin to recognize emotions and subconscious messages from your inner self. Sometimes we are just tuning into your body. Other times, I may use movement or art or journal writing as a way to help you connect with your subconscious. I am a hypnotherapist so I use hypnotherapy as a tool to discover why you can't let go of old patterns or grief as well as to help you discover and bring to life your deepest desires and passionate life purpose. I have found that simply talking about problems is seldom enough because we need to engage our beings on five levels to make lasting change. We need to involve not just our minds, but also our wills, emotions, bodies and spiritual selves. Spirituality (as distinct from religion) is an area that I particularly emphasize. I encourage you to incorporate your personal spiritual beliefs in the healing process because this greatly accelerates transformation.

Most of the time the difficulties you face in the present have their roots in the past and that's why you can't shift them simply by changing your behavior in the present. I believe that love is the ultimate healing force. Most of us have trouble loving parts of ourselves and some of the people and memories from our past, but we may or may not be consciously aware of what we are rejecting. I help you find the unloved parts of  yourself, be it an inner child, teenager, or personality trait and accept, forgive, and love yourself to freedom. Acceptance and forgiveness of other people can only happen when you have first embraced yourself and any resentment you are still nursing is holding you back from your full potential.

I also emphasize the skills of healthy relationships in my practice and I teach regular classes on relationship topics. My training from the Hendricks Institute taught me skills that turned my life around. I use these skills all the time in my relationship with my husband and am very happily married. I love watching peoples lives change for the better as they learn these skills. In addition to teaching the skills, I help you discover the subconscious attitudes and beliefs that are preventing you from having a healthy relationship. I work with relationship issues with both gay and straight couples as well as individuals.
