I believe in an integrative approach to therapy, addressing both the mind and the body. I am committed to providing compassionate care from mindfulness evidence based practices such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy and Health At Every Size (HAES) to facilitate holistic healing and support each person’s unique needs and goals.
My areas of expertise include the mind/body connection, trauma-informed care, health and eating disorder recovery, stress management and anxiety/depression. In my sessions, we work together as a team. I treat the client as a whole, not a symptom. I believe that you have everything you need to to succeed; I am here to help you access it. Through personalized insight and psychoeducation, we work as a team in developing tools of self-regulation to empower and (re)establish a feeling of security and trust within the body and mind so you can feel confident in your next steps.
Many of my clients come out of therapy feeling confident in taking the next best steps for themselves from a deeper understanding of their authentic wants and needs. They report that they have an easier time sitting with and processing difficult emotions, are more comfortable with themselves both alone and in social interactions, and have a clearer sense of their core values and beliefs. Most importantly, they feel safe, listened to, supported, and seen for who they really are.
I work with individuals across the age span, as well as couples and families. I look forward to the opportunity to connect and partner with you on your pursuit of discovery and self-care.
