Trauma is the description of a painful event that profoundly alters the course of your life. Therapy is about story telling.
In my approach to therapy I strive to integrate these two ideas.
My goal is to establish a partnership with you, that will enable you to create your personal story, in which the trauma that you have suffered will no longer be a defining event in your life.
Instead, it will be transformed into a painful incident in your past, that you are able to recall without being emotionally triggered. In order to accomplish this I use a variety of techniques, including EMDR, recognized as “best practices” for treating trauma.
Although trauma is my area of expertise it is not the only psychological disorder I treat. I have also succesfully treated people who suffer with a variety of other problems including depression, anxiety, and eating disorders. I also help individuals effectively cope with grief and loss. I see individuals aged 5 to 65, as well as couples and families.
