I have a deep appreciation for the transformative power embedded within relational dynamics. Early in my educational journey, I immersed myself in family systems theory and practice, unveiling the unique potency residing in healing connections. I find a special resonance in my work with couples and families and use an integrative approach to relational healing, drawing upon the wisdom of John and Julie Gottman, Esther Perel and Terry Real among others. I recognize that the experiences of trauma and adversity often have relational aspects to them. But so too does our capacity for healing and building resilience.
In addition to working with couples and families, I also provide trauma resolution for individuals using modalities such as Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) and Internal Family Systems (IFS), seamlessly blending them with conventional person-centered, solution-focused, and CBT-based interventions.
Before working at CCG, I served as a therapist in a private non-profit organization for many years and acted as supervisor and mentor to dozens of therapists and interns. I have also presented on the topic of Adverse Childhood Experiences (ACES) and Resilience to countless organizations and groups. I welcome you to reach out and look forward to meeting you.
