I work with people in individual therapy to address those areas that bring them distress and hold them back from living a more meaningful life.   You could be dealing with the loss of a loved one, have difficulty trusting others in relationships, or be dealing with ongoing anxiety and depression, but together we’ll look to experience greater levels of connection and freedom.

Common areas addressed:

  • Anxiety
  • Co-Dependency
  • PTSD or Trauma (EMDR Therapy)
  • Depression
  • Grief and Loss
  • Relationship Problems
  • Spirituality & Faith

Common areas addressed:

  • Trust Issues
  • Communication Problems
  • Marital Distress and Anger
  • Infidelity
  • Pre-Marital Counseling
  • Physical Intimacy Issues

EMDR Therapy - Trauma

EMDR therapy for Trauma in Arroyo Grande, Nipomo, Pismo Beach and SLO San Luis Obispo

Often trauma work does not get better with normal talk therapy but requires more directed and somatic therapy to address underlying areas.  EMDR is a proven approach to be effective in working with trauma.

Common areas addressed:

  • Physical and Emotional Trauma
  • Anxiety
  • Serious Accident or Illness
  • Relational Trauma
  • Big "T" and small "t" trauma
