Philosophy

There are no mistakes in life. Each event brings about an opportunity for transformation and deeper purpose. My role as a therapist is to mirror this reality back to clients, help “contain” some of the more painful aspects of certain experiences and be an objective guide as each one finds their way in the self-healing process. It is a tremendous privilege and a deep joy to engage with clients on this soulful level.

I work with individuals—adults, teens and children—to help them find their way through life’s challenges, whether those be trauma, job loss, death of a loved one, struggles in relationships, any life transitions and questions that surface on the search for deeper joy and meaning in life. My extensive background in Carl Jung’s depth approach (symbols, dreams, stories) allows a soulful view on these challenging aspects. I am also trained in EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and find it a revolutionary and effective tool for working with the traumas of our lives, large and small.
