Services Offered:
Online Individual Psychotherapy:
Through the lens of a trauma informed, attachment based, integrated approach to therapy, my clients are able to better understand themselves, their relationships and the unconscious forces that keep them from reaching their personal goals. I utilize the following techniques to help clients explore, understand and finally work-through underlying conflicts:
Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) - evidence based trauma treatment that is often referred to as emotional healing at warp speed.
Safe and Sound Protocol - Developed by Stephen Porges, the Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP) is a five -day auditory intervention designed to reduce, stress, trauma and auditory sensitivity while enhancing social engagement and resilience.
Emotional Freedom Techniques (EFT). - highly effective emotional acupuncture to rapidly change negative emotions and restore balance to disrupted energy.
Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) - changes unhelpful thinking patterns and problem behaviors.
Somatic Psychotherapy - unlocks negative energy trapped in body.
Coaching/consultations are not reimbursable by private insurance. All payments are required prior to session.
Online Coaching:
Cutting edge coaching using modern brain science and designed to process unresolved blocks and trauma symptoms that are interfering with functioning. My unique approach targets unconscious blocks and conflicts that are interfering with success, change and happiness.
Trauma Consultations:
I offer time limited trauma consultations to clients wanting another perspective on their experiences. I am uniquely skilled in identifying trauma targets and triggers that are interfering with an individual’s therapeutic progress. What makes this different from psychotherapy is that the experience is limited, usually one or two sessions, sometimes more, and is not meant to replace ongoing therapy.
Withdrawal Support Consultations:
I also offer confidential consultations supporting people going through withdrawal from psychiatric drugs. These coaching sessions will provide support, comfort and coping skills to navigate this process. I am also able to answer non-medical questions you may have about this journey and can provide anecdotal information to families and caregivers.
However, I am not a medical doctor and am not qualified to advise or comment on medical treatment you may be receiving, or to supervise or comment on tapers off medication.
All services are provided by secure tele-therapy platforms including Skype or a HIPPA compliant platform.
The Safe and Sound Protocol:
Developed by Dr. Stephen Porges, the Safe and Sound Protocol (SSP) is a five-day auditory intervention designed to reduce stress and auditory sensitivity while enhancing social engagement and resilience. Based on Dr. Porges’ Polyvagal Theory, by calming the physiological and emotional state, the door is opened for improved communication and more successful therapy.
The SSP is a research-based therapy showing significant results in just five days in the following areas:
Social and emotional difficulties
Auditory sensitivities
Anxiety and trauma related challenges
Inattention
Triggers that impact functioning and reaction
Following successful completion of the intervention, individuals will be better able to focus in school, therapy, and everyday life and experience a calmed emotional and physiological state. This is based on studies that suggest that skills such as attention, state regulation and the ability to engage socially will be enhanced.
