Work​
experience​
​I have experience working with individuals, couples, and facilitating groups. I have worked with several social service agencies in the areas of women's issues, anger management, relationships, stress, and depression. My experience is also working with diverse communities, including social issues; racism, sexism, gender, and sexual orientation. My skills include problem solving, effective communication/listening, being supportive, and providing a safe place to express your concerns.
I have recently added hypnosis to my experience. Hypnosis is a natural state of focused attention, and deep relaxation that allows the mind to be more open to suggestions. It is not sleep or unconsciousness, but rather a heightened state of awareness where the subscious mind becomes more receptive to change. Hypnotherapy uses this state to help individuals overcome challenges, reframe negative thought patterns, and achieve personal goals.
