While valuing a person's authentic nature and intrinsic wisdom qualities, as well as respecting the therapeutic relationship as a primary tool for growth, I enjoy working at deep/structural levels toward healing, transformation and integration. My integrative and integral approach to working with clients rests on a foundation of psychodynamic psychotherapy which values and explores how conditioning from previous experience impacts our current perception, experience, behavior and relationships. As I have evolved as a therapist over the years, I continue to integrate my training and experiences in both modern and ancient wisdoms and trainings from both the Eastern and Western traditions of psychologies. From this, I integrate a variety of methods including hypnosis, EMDR, EFT (Emotional Freedom Technique), Compassionate Communication (NVC), East-West Psychology, Integral Psychology, Cognitive and Behavioral Therapy, Depth Psychology, Dream Analysis, Family Systems, DBT, Mindfulness, Meditation, MBSR, Internal Family Systems, Attachment & Body Based Therapies, Holistic Health Coaching, neuroscience and other methods in order to tailor the therapy to the individual's needs. At this stage of my work as a therapist, while including all of the above, I am wanting to work more with individuals who are exploring deeper existential and spiritual questions in life--which likely involve some anxiety and/or depression--and how these questions and conflicts manifest within themselves emotionally, spiritually, physically and cognitively, and in their interpersonal worlds of relationships, work, environment, etc. If you have read this long statement through and feel a strong resonance with my approach, please feel free to call me for availability. In any event, I wish you all the very best. Warmly, Gaye
