I am a certified Emotionally Focused Therapist for couples (EFT) and practice EFT for my individual clients also. My mindfulness training and EMDR and EMDR M (Modified, Laurel Parnell’s training) attachment trauma therapy trainings experience helps you process stuck patterns either from trauma or “negative cycles” with loved ones or with your inner self. These cycles repeat endlessly and can be very distressing. I work extensively with shame and the inner critic to help you settle and open up more.
I am an advance student in my spiritual practice of inquiry and mindfulness in the Ridhwan (see below for link) school in Berkeley for 18 years now.
I have a strong love or art in the form or poetry and creative writing. I also paint and draw in acrylic and pencil with ink. This love of the arts helps me open to the nonverbal and creative acts we all engage which help us communicate the parts or us that often do not have a voice.
