Imagine hiring a personal
consultant for life --someone with whom you can discuss individual
relationship difficulties and receive help in identifying and creating what
you want in your life. I want to be that person.
"It was wonderful to have
another person to speak to about goals, hopes, and fears whose only interest
was my ultimate success in achieving my goals."
As a Psychotherapist and
Coach, I love to work with individuals, couples and groups
towards improving communication, resolving conflict
and attaining personal and relationship fulfillment. I also love to work
with community and business groups to develop strategies to accomplish
their goals. Areas of
focus in my practice include: anxiety/panic disorders, depression,
separation/divorce, eating disorders, gay/lesbian issues, grief/loss,
self-esteem issues, stress management, trauma and PTSD, women's issues,
addiction, work and career issues, mindfulness training, couples/marital
therapy and group therapy. I also love to help community groups and
business groups develop skills and reach their goals.
I often use energy psychology approaches in my work including,
-
BODY TALK -
An energy based approach which identifies priorities and helps the
brain balance and restore communication within the body
-
E.F.T (Emotional Freedom Technique)
-
N.E.T (Neuro-Emotional Technique)
-
E.M.D.R (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) and
-
PSYCH-K™ (Psych-Kinesiology)
I have also written
numerous articles and co-authored a book "Stages of Healing: a Guide to
Counseling Adult Children of Alcoholics.” I have been the
Co-Chair of the Women's Issues Committee of the Miami-Dade County
Psychological Association since 1992.
