Therapist Overview
I believe that metaphor is the carrier of deep truths about the self, and the door to meaning and growth. As a therapist, I listen for metaphor in verbal and non-verbal interactions with clients. I was trained in Expressive Therapy and also use a developmental approach. I am also fully trained in EMDR. I base all of my work with children, teens, families, and adults in a grounding in normal development, taking into account developmental stages as I look at issues and problems presented. Helping clients identify and clarify their own belief or value systems is an important skill. I work in verbal and non-verbal modalities, sometimes using arts modalities. I am a Registered Play Therapist-Supervisor use sand tray therapy as well as other modalities. I work with people with Autism Spectrum Disorder, ID, survivors of trauma, LGBT clients, children, adolescents, young adults, college students, and families. I am honored to work with men on issues of identity, role, orientation, relationship
