Somatic Experiencing, Person-Centered, Play Therapy—Individuals—Ages 12 and Up
As a trauma informed therapist, I utilize Somatic Experiencing™ techniques to provide gentle and safe support. I believe in the wisdom of the body’s capacity for healing and work to develop resources that allow individuals to uncover the true self that lies underneath trauma. I believe the key to success in therapy starts with creating a strong therapeutic relationship and I strive to create a nurturing, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment. I honor a holistic perspective that incorporates biological, psychological, sociological, and spiritual forces in an individual’s life. I have experience working with individuals of all ages with anxiety, depression, ADHD, PTSD, complex trauma and accumulated stress utilizing techniques from both cognitive (“top down”) and somatic (“bottom up”) based therapeutic modalities.
