In my psychotherapy practice I work with families, couples and
individuals. I am an integrative therapist, drawing from a broad range of
approaches, including cognitive-behavioral, family systems, Eye Movement
Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR),
Jungian and Imago
Relationship Therapy. I approach problems holistically and
systemically.
