38 years helping my clients get somewhere.
I’ve been a psychotherapist in Florida for the last 28 years. I spent ten years before that working full and part time, preparing for what I do today.
Trauma sits at the center of my work. I’ve been EMDR trained since 9/11, when I became my psychiatric hospital’s trauma therapist, and I trained under Sandra Brown, the first researcher to study survivors of psychopathic relationships.
EMDR helps your brain file away traumatic memories so they stop ambushing you: eye movements or tapping while you hold the memory in mind. Alongside it, I use hypnotherapy, EFT tapping, and polyvagal techniques – practical ways to move your nervous system out of fight-flight-freeze to rest and digest.
I believe psychotherapy can be an interesting adventure. My patients and I don’t just talk, we get somewhere. People are more resilient than they know, and I get great satisfaction watching my patients tap their creativity, discover their strengths, and get rid of pain they have carried for years, sometimes decades.
The methods I use are effective, and they can reduce the time you spend in psychotherapy. You set the goals. My job is to help you reach them as soon as possible.
