TRANSFORM TO SHINE
My approach, Transform to Shine, is built on three pillars designed to align your inner healing with your outer success:
-
Love: Healing the past through EMDR and psychotherapy.
-
Inspiration: Designing and architecting the future through Neuro-Shine coaching.
-
Joy: Living a life that aligns with your healing.
WE OFFER THE FOLLOWING
EMDR Therapy for PTSD and Trauma
EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) Therapy is an effective tool for working through past trauma that may be impacting your current thoughts, emotions, beliefs and responses. Through a guided process that honors your unique wisdom and ability to respond to life's challenges and opportunities, you can achieve a sense of resolution and peace with the past, while simultaneously strengthening your internal resources for healing and change.
Relationship and Couples Counseling
As a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist for over 20 years, I focus on improving relationships and personal well-being in the context of interpersonal dynamics. With a focus on individuation and healthy inter-dependence, I honor and respect individual needs, strengths and desires while simultaneously supporting the development and growth of true intimacy and relationship health. Utilizing Emotion-Focused Therapy (EFT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), my approach to relationships is developing both empathy and compassion while honoring the unique gifts and abilities of each of my clients.
Mindfulness and DBT Skills
Mindfulness Awareness practices, combined with practical and effective coping strategies, can improve your emotional and mental health while providing skillful means to navigate the stresses and challenges of life. Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) provides an intuitive set of skills that assist with managing emotional and psychological triggers of distress, while also offering effective self-regulation and personal management skills to increase focus, productivity, and general peace and happiness in your life. Learning and practicing these evidence-based skills will improve your personal and professional success in all areas of your life.
