![]() ![]() I have been a presenter at a number of workshops and television programs in Missouri, New Mexico, Oregon, and Washington that have dealt with topics such as communication systems, bereavement, adoption, attachment, alcoholism, and the treatment of the mentally ill offender. I also have training and expertise in the treatment of minority populations. In 1991 I received levels I and II training (four days) in the application of Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR). This procedure seems to utilize the facilitation of rapid eye movement to metabolize or eliminate emotional trauma from both historical and present day traumatic experiences. This has now become an important part of my therapy approach when working with individuals who want relief from their exposure to traumatic incidents. ![]() In 1996 I received a proficiency certification in the Treatment of Alcohol and other Psychoactive Substance Use disorders from the American Psychological Association’s College of Professional Psychology. This certification is now called the Natural Certification Commission for Addiction Professionals. In 2007 I became certified as proficient in the application of Microcurrent Electrical Therapy and Cranial Electrotherapy Stimulation. I use this training as an adjunctive application in the treatment of depression, anxiety, sleep disturbance, executive function issues, and for pain management. My theory or frame of reference involves Gestalt, Transactional Analysis, cognitive behavioral and developmental constructs. ![]()
