About
I am passionate about assisting clients to transform their emotional experience. When our emotion systems go awry, it can be difficult or impossible to meet our needs. This often leads to pervasive discomfort including symptoms of anxiety, depression, and/or efforts to manage feelings through avoidance or distractions such as drinking, drug use, exercise, eating, and sex. I believe that emotions are most effectively changed by changing emotion with emotion. Emotion Focused Therapy combines empathy with evidence-based practices to assist clients in overcoming longstanding patterns of self-criticism underlying depression and anxiety, in letting go of challenging stuck feelings towards significant others in your life, and in seeking to heal from the impacts of trauma. Working in this way requires an openness to experiencing your inner world, and a motivation to approach and transform your emotion patterns.
