Somatic Experiencing (SE) takes healing to a deeper level. Combined with 'top-down' approaches, SE helps identify strengths and intentions beneath painful survival patterns. Shame, fear and anger transform into vital life energy. Surviving becomes thriving. As a private practice psychotherapist based in SF & Marin for several years, I was fortunate to work with people from a wide variety of backgrounds. During the pandemic, my practice shifted to primarily virtual.
Substance use compounds the recovery process. Seemingly inescapable cycles of abuse and dependence arise from powerful drives to mask effects of trauma, severe mood & anxiety symptoms. Therapeutic alliances help identify needs underneath impulses, then develop effective coping strategies.
With nonjudgmental support and practical knowledge, I help people turn destructive responses into strengths. Payoffs from psychotherapy include internal peace and renewed abilities to fufill potential, successful emotional management, better memory and concentration - as well as greater overall life satisfaction.
