About

I am a therapist for adults whose memory does not stay where they put it. My clients are usually managing a lot successfully while contending with material that arrives uninvited and at inconvenient moments. Flashbacks are the most disruptive version of that, though the same mechanism produces plenty of quieter effects. Sudden shifts in mood, a strong reaction to something minor, an afternoon lost for no reason anybody can identify: all of it comes from the same place. We work on interrupting the process early, which is far more achievable than most people expect once they know what to look for. I worked initially in school and university counseling, where I got a lot of practice at explaining these mechanisms clearly to people who had been told very little. Knowing how it works is really useful. If your memory does not stay put, get in touch.
