About My Clients
I have experience working with past and present trauma, anxiety, sexual concerns, justice system involvement, psychosis, and major mood disorders. Whether you are new to therapy or experienced in mental health treatment, I can offer an eclectic and integrated approach that promotes healing the mind and body as well as targeting your real-world circumstances.
My Background and Approach
I come from a background of performance, creation, education, and social justice. I discovered dance/movement therapy while teaching acting classes in a local jail, and after many years of clinical training I'm now a Licensed Creative Arts Therapist (LCAT) and Board-Certified Dance/Movement Therapist (BC-DMT). I want to help you reconnect with your body, your humanity, and your inherent potential to create change. I believe that your body and mind are intrinsically linked, and that your individual experiences are inherently interconnected with your community, culture, and circumstances. I have a whole-body, whole-world approach to therapy, which means that your relational and cultural experiences, the sensations in your body, your emotions, and your thoughts will all be a part of our work together. We will talk about your experiences, improvise movement, create art, engage with systemic injustices, and create rituals—your experience will be entirely your own.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I have been working in the NYC jail system as a mental health provider since 2022, and my number one priority as a therapist is increasing access to mental health treatment for people involved in the justice system or re-entering the community after incarceration. If you have been to jail or prison and are looking for therapy or treatment, please reach out to me for no-cost or low-cost support.
