Individual Therapy
“Trauma is not what happens to us, but what we hold inside in the absence of an empathetic witness.” — Peter A. Levine
Together, we can re-weave the connection, find the strong and the fragile threads of yourself and with them both, fashion a renewed and deeper sense of wholeness. I support your engaged exchanges, and use dynamic approaches that honor your journey, your strengths and your gifts. We can do this. Together we find the broken strands and look at each thread of emotion, thought, and behavior. Let’s refit them together to reweave a new connection to wholeness. Together we can find your wisdom and strength and the design of your full capacity.
I’ve been working with individuals in therapy for more than 15 years. I help people work at the level of their comfort to sit with their deeper vulnerable emotions in their window of tolerance. How does this heal?
Individuals who take a step towards feeling these deeper, vulnerable emotions, to experience them and to discover how these forces unintentionally run the protective, distancing dance they end up doing in life.
And when these clients are able, in the moment of feeling a disconnection, to experience these deeper forces, I’ve seen over and over how it brings them back to a secure connection with their deepest self.
“The real difficulty is to overcome how you think about yourself.” -Maya Angelou
Ultimately, it’s my client’s willingness to be present to their inner experience that starts to make connection possible, and I’m there to help them step into this dynamic experience with support.
The healing process is about becoming more conscious of what is running you and an ability to respond with choice.
“Trauma creates change you don’t choose. Healing is about creating change you do choose.” — Michelle Rosenthal
Your deeper mental and emotional stability is always available to you—our work together is to help you access it, learn how to respond when old patterns take you away from that resource, and learn how to come back to your heart.
I am honored to be with you in this project. As a process-coach I help you find new ways of being, discover new pathways to deepening wholeness. I look forward to supporting you. I invite you to call, text or set up a free 30-minute virtual consultation to get started.
Influences on my work with individuals include:
Internal Family Systems, Sue Johnson’s Emotionally Focused Individual Therapy, and EMDR.
