Solution-Focused Counseling

I provide a solution-focused approach with Gestalt Psychotherapy, Hypnosis, Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP), and Emotional Freedom Technique — tools that have proven effective whether addressing anxiety, stress, or weight loss.  This approach is often referred to as "Brief Therapy," and limits our work to a specific need.


Hypnosis

Hypnosis simply invokes a state of deep relaxation and focused attention, commonly referred to as a trance.  Trance states are frequently misunderstood and not recognized, experienced when falling asleep or daydreaming, or even when driving a car.  Hypnosis uses that state of deep relaxation and highly focused attention –- and I draw on it with most of my clients.  Through hypnosis my client can work with the underlying experience or misunderstanding that resulted in stress or anxiety, and have the means to make progress quickly – even if a deep trance  has not been achieved.

Energy Psychology

There has been an explosion of information recently about Energy Psychology and the related meridian based therapies – tools which use the body’s energy meridians to restore emotional balance.  Many of my clients have demonstrated excellent results with Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT), a popular meridian therapy, achieving rapid change when processing everyday emotions such as fear, anger, sadness, or lack of confidence.

Psycho-Spiritual Counseling

Those who are seeking personal growth, and who desire an expanded view of the world, will find psycho-spiritual counseling appealing. Combining classic counseling and a spiritual perspective, this takes into consideration a person’s belief system, energy, and states of awareness.


My work is not focused on a particular segment of any community. Anyone can – and will – benefit from a new perspective on an old problem.
