Have you been working on yourself for a while but still find yourself hooked by old issues and triggers? Ever feel discouraged, anxious or depressed when your repetitive, "stuck" feeling issues  keep resurfacing?

I've noticed that many people can  intellectually understand and clearly discuss their issues but, despite their insight, still find themselves repeating the same old  patterns that lead to discomfort and pain.

Why is it that even though we've been trying hard through therapy, self-help or spiritual practices,  the lasting changes we long for continue to elude us?

• One , because we haven't fully cleared the real, underlying core of our issues.  These underlying core patterns, beliefs and reactions still trigger us because they lie buried in our primitive  brain and nervous system - out of reach of our rational, conscious mind. 
  
•  Two, because we haven't learned to tap into our natural sense of freedom, comfort and soothing peace that doesn't come and go, that is always available, even in the midst of our busy minds, emotions, and physical challenges.  This space is sometimes referred to as the ultimate medicine because it naturally dissolves intense emotions and sensations without ignoring them -  opening us to an all-inclusive state of fundamental peace and fulfillment. 

To address both of these reasons that change hasn't been successful,I offer a blend of cutting edge psychotherapy and  natural, effortless, spirituality.   I've seen that talking alone isn't enough to heal many issues and I've found these tools to be highly effective, time and time again.

The advanced therapeutic techniques of Brainspotting and EMDR can release painful emotions, change difficult behavior patterns and reduce reactions/triggers to situations and relationships.   They work by releasing core neurophysiological sources of emotional/body pain, trauma and other symptoms where they are lodged  --  in the deep limbic brain and nervous system.
 
In addition, I use the therapeutic tools of hypnotherapy and energy work to clear unconscious obstacles and enhance your inherent strengths.  

In combination, these powerful healing  methods can also liberate constricted energies that have blocked your experience of natural freedom and help you open to this ultimate state. 

I have been a psychotherapist for 30 years, and have a warm, down to earth style, which is compassionate as well as insightful/intuitive. My clients experience a sense of profound, positive release and lightness after most sessions.  There is a sense of spontaneity, and often surprise, in how one moves organically toward healing.

Being a meditator for over 40 years, I am able to easily 'rest' in the healing state of 'natural freedom' and peace' (sometimes called 'healing bliss', conscious spirit, etc) and can help you do the same.  As you slip into that ultimate state of comfort and security, you will feel your needs being fulfilled from within and can rest in a space where nothing is missing.
