I use Cognitive-Behavioral Therapy and EMDR, two of the best researched treatment modalities for a wide range of issues. I combine these methods with visualization, mindfulness and meditation techniques, when appropriate, to assist clients in tapping into their inner wisdom. I also incorporate wisdom from Alcoholics Anonymous and other 12-Step programs in my work.  For clients for whom it makes sense, I encourage attendance at 12-Step programs, but I am also aware that these programs are not a good fit for everyone. 

For couples counseling, I focus on behavior and communication.  While it is helpful to understand your partner's underlying issues, and for them to understand yours, the key in relationships is how you treat each other.  I work with couples on increasing positive behaviors, which lead to increased intimacy, on an emotional, physical and spiritual level.  Simultaneously, we will work on eliminating the destructive behaviors which sabotage relationships.
