Your Trusted Psychotherapist in Avon, CT
I am a licensed psychotherapist with over four decades of experience in private practice, dedicated to guiding individuals through emotional and psychological challenges. My journey began in 1980 with foundational training in Body-Centered Psychotherapy, integrating Gestalt and Bioenergetics methodologies. Over the years, I have expanded my expertise to include Somatic Experiencing, a trauma-healing approach that addresses the nervous system's response to stress and threat. My practice incorporates diverse modalities such as animal imagery, Native American ritual, Past Life Regression, and Spirit-based healing, reflecting a holistic understanding of human experience. I specialize in addressing trauma rooted in prenatal, birth, or childhood experiences, as well as acute and chronic stressors. My approach emphasizes the interconnectedness of body, brain, and emotions, recognizing how unresolved stress impacts long-term well-being.

With a career spanning since 1985 in Connecticut, I have cultivated a practice grounded in empathy, continuous learning, and evidence-based techniques. I maintain active professional development through certifications like Somatic Experiencing, completed in 2008, to better serve clients facing anxiety, depression, or trauma. My work is driven by a profound commitment to helping individuals navigate their healing journeys with compassion and expertise. I operate from a perspective of shared humanity, acknowledging both the uniqueness of individual experiences and the universal aspects of emotional suffering. This practice represents not just professional expertise but a lifelong dedication to understanding and alleviating psychological distress through integrative therapeutic methods.
