Description

I am a therapist with 22 years experience in mental health and have been in private practice for 10 years. I tend to use EFT as a primary approach (eftuniverse.com) for faster, deeper results but treatment is decided on by the client. I have experience in many areas including: addictions, trauma, depression, anxiety, couples work, childhood trauma, acquired brain injury and psychiatry.
