Personal Statement

Feeling tired, worried or overwhelmed? Have you ever wished you could control your reactions to life better? Making the decision to reach out for help is a bold and empowering step. Maybe old patterns are repeating and you’re feeling discouraged. You might be thinking: “I thought I took care of this before. Or, why aren’t I feeling more confident and secure by now?” One thing you know for sure is that something has to change!

Traditional "talk therapy" is often not enough to create lasting transformation. We all need skills we can use outside of the therapy session to make change stick. I am committed to helping my clients overcome limiting beliefs and challenging past experiences using non-traditional therapeutic experiences. I use engaging and interactive techniques such as guided EFT (self-acupressure), guided self-inquiry, imagery and hypnosis that get to the heart of the matter.

Not only can these methods produce quick results, they empower you with fun tools you can use for the rest of your life! I offer online face-to-face therapeutic experiences. If you have never tried online therapy before, you might be pleasantly surprised how natural therapy can progress in the comfort of your own home.
