About My Clients
My clients typically find me when looking to dig deeper and go beyond traditional talk therapy. I work best with adult women who are creatives and high achievers who struggle with anxiety, CPTSD/PTSD and their relationships; who are motivated for change; who are curious about creating/restoring a relationship with their body; and who are looking for a more active, collaborative therapy relationship.
My Background and Approach
After working as a clinical social worker for nearly two decades in a variety of different systems and settings, I founded Blue Sky Therapy in 2020. Blue Sky Therapy is a reflection of my professional passions, incorporating psychotherapy, somatic and creative practices into my therapy work. My unique style is influenced by combining science and spirituality, with a blend of ‘Jersey Girl meets Joshua Tree’. I am a full-time resident of the High Desert and am deeply committed to healing individual and collective trauma by providing compassionate, holistic mental health care and wellness offerings in my community. In my spare time, I enjoy hiking in Joshua Tree National Park, practicing yoga, gardening, making pottery and spending time with my cat Izzy, my friends and family.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
My practice is deeply rooted in social work values and ethics and guided by the following social work principles: social justice; the belief in the dignity and worth of each and every person; and the importance of human relationships as the vehicles for change. I believe the following: -Every person is deserving of healing and health provided by skilled, compassionate, trauma-informed, trauma-trained therapists. -When we heal trauma in an individual, the ripple effects spread through our communities. -When we heal trauma in the individual, we heal collective trauma and future generations. -Our society cannot be healthy and well until all people have access to safe, equitable and person-centered healthcare.
