"Genuine healing is not a single moment of catharsis, but a lifelong journey of self-discovery, self-awareness, and self-compassion." - Gabor Maté

Therapeutic Modalities & Approaches

My primary therapeutic orientation is in Jungian depth psychology, but I am also trained in and regularly use the tools and modalities of AEDP, EMDR, and Narrative Therapy. Most importantly, I choose the approach or combination of approaches that best resonates with your unique and specific needs. Please read below if you are curious to know more about these approaches to therapy.

Depth Psychotherapy

Depth psychology is a field of psychology that explores the unconscious mind and the way it influences behavior. It can involve working with dreams, images, and active imagination to gain insight into current behaviors and emotions. This approach is often used in therapy to help individuals more deeply understand themselves and their relationships with others.

AEDP Therapy

Accelerated Experiential Dynamic Psychotherapy was developed by Dr. Diana Fosha. Based in research in attachment theory, affective neuroscience, and somatic (body-oriented) studies, AEDP is a relational, experiential, and emotion-focused style of therapy that encourages individuals to arrive at their own sources of wisdom, through the experience of emotional processing.

EMDR Therapy

EMDR therapy is a type of psychotherapy that helps individuals process traumatic experiences. It stands for Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing. During an EMDR session, the therapist guides the client through a series of eye movements or bilateral stimulation while they recall the traumatic event. This process helps the patient reprocess the memory in a way that reduces the emotional distress associated with it.

Narrative Therapy

Writing by the Water

Narrative therapy is a form of psychotherapy that focuses on the stories we tell ourselves about our lives. It is based on the idea that our identities are shaped by the stories we tell ourselves and that by changing these stories, we can change our lives. The therapist works with the client to identify the dominant narratives in their life and to explore alternative narratives that may be more empowering and helpful.
