Therapy is meant for when you realize you are no longer where you were, not yet where you want to be, but ready to get on your way.

 

As a therapist, I focus on building a sincere relationship, where within that space you can safety explore your fears, sorrows, anger, and aspirations. I will support you in the process of discovering your authentic self, cultivating resilience to life’s stressors, and reconnecting to a sense of purpose as you move forward.  

 

My approach to therapy is holistic and evidence-based. I merge Western science with Eastern wisdom in the treatment of a wide variety of emotional, behavioral, and relationship concerns. My compassionate, yet direct style, is rooted in my unique background. For over 15 years I have developed a broad perspective through my work at non-profits, medical, social services, and Federal government agencies. As a therapist, I deepened my belief of unconditional acceptance through placements spanning correctional institutions, acute hospitals, residential facilities, community-based, in-home, and outpatient settings.

               

 As I see it, therapy is as much an art, as it is a science. I have extensive training in trauma services, art/play therapy, DBT, and CBT approaches - particularly using Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) for treatment of OCD and anxiety disorders - while also incorporating a neuroscience foundation and the intuitive design of mindfulness, spirituality, attachment, and cultural diversity.

It's a true mind + body + soul approach.
