About Me

 
My love as a Licensed Mental Health Counselor , EMDR Clinician and Certified Hypnotherapist is working with and sharing the tools to promote my clients own ability to heal themselves, support, and empower with compassion, unconditional positive regard and acceptance in a non judgmental way. I feel fortunate to offer EMDR and Hypnotherapy as powerful tools to heal a myriad of our human trials and tribulations such as trauma, depression, anxiety as well as helping my clients achieve their goals and build resilience . Moreover, as a Certified Hypnotherapist, I am able to really work with my cliehts’ subconsciously to create knew subconscious messaging for deeper healing. And, I also share the value and wisdom found in the use of Play Therapy which allows the client to develop and create new strategies to problems while learning to experience and express emotions. Also very importantly, I pride myself on my continued excellent therapeutic alliances with every client that I meet.

Another skill I offer is being able as a public speaker to lead a psycho education group that details therapeutic discourse while including mindful practices that reinforce the power of self healing.

In addition, I have spent many years in the SUD/OUD setting working in-patient with co-occurring mental illness and substance use disorder clients. I spend time cultivating SUD and OUD clients to build self esteem, coping skills, self regulating skills, mindfulness tools, interconnection skills as well as relapse prevention strategies and skills. Furthermore, I am skilled in the BPSA, CCR, ASAM and evaluations needed in the SUD/OUD setting.

Furthermore, I currently work at a domestic violence shelter empowering and teaching my clients new skills to become their strongest, wisest and most illuminated selves.

Moreover, as a writer my passion is finding the human piece to every story that I write and entwining the depth of emotion and feeling that each human carries within their heart and soul. Then, weaving their story together to combine the ingredients of love, passion and magic that pulls the essence through every story.

Finally, I have also had the great honor of being a Hospice Volunteer. I am humbled to be a part of such an inspiring and emotional transitioning time for all humans and animals.
