Individual Consultation Services

Art Therapy Consultation

Let’s breathe new life into your art therapy practice. Drawing from my years of training and experience as a Creative Arts Therapist, I will illuminate effective techniques, theoretical approaches, and styles. We’ll discuss how you view your clients through different lenses, how you approach materials, and how to integrate your unique style to meet your clients’ specific needs.

EMDR Consultation

As an Approved EMDR Consultant, I’m passionate about broadening the practice of this powerful trauma therapy technique. Whether you’re curious about EMDR or in the process of certification, I will meet you where you’re at and offer helpful insights to empower your clients’ healing journey.

Group Consultation Services

Overcoming the Mother Wound (OCMW) and Integrative Trauma Group for EMDR Therapists

I provide consultation and support to clinicians seeking to deepen their understanding and enhance their therapeutic approach with adults who have experienced early, disruptive relationships—often with their primary caregivers, such as mothers.

The group is both structured and open to what group members need. For example, we explore recognizing signs and symptoms of a Mother Wound, attachment theory, psychoeducation, and navigating complex dynamics like countertransference, projections, and boundary breaches. Our discussions will focus on best practices for supporting this population.

To work with this population, clinicians need to be open to exploring their own personal wounds and how these may impact treatment. As a result, it is both a consultation and a process group.

Working with individuals who have complex trauma (C-PTSD) requires careful attention, not only for the client but for the clinician as well. This space is supportive, confidential, and designed for shared learning, practice, and reflection on your clients’ needs and your own.

This consultation group is an excellent resource for clinicians working with C-PTSD, a demanding yet deeply fulfilling therapy area.

EMDR Integrative Trauma Consultation for EMDR Therapists

Initially held separately, this group has now merged with the OCMW Consultation Group due to its members’ overlapping interests and needs.

As EMDR therapists, we need diverse tools and a supportive learning environment to deepen and hone our knowledge. This consultation group focuses on integrating various trauma-informed approaches to enhance our clinical practice.

We discuss cases, therapeutic techniques, and strategies to support your clients better.

I offer guidance, resources, and a sounding board for your ideas and challenges, helping you build your clinical toolkit.

This group, merged with OCMW consultation, fosters professional growth, creativity, and a deeper understanding of ourselves within our clinical identity and niche.

While this consultation group does not count toward clinical hours, it offers invaluable support for therapists aiming to refine their practice through personalized approaches.

Meet every other Tuesday 11 am-12:30 pm
