About My Clients
In my practice, I integrate a range of evidence -based tools, including Expressive Arts, Mindfulness, Somatics, and Relational Therapy. This holistic approach addresses the mind, body, heart, and spirit, and I specialize in helping individuals living with Chronic Illness, Anxiety, Burnout, and C-PTSD. Clients who come my way have often been in therapy before, and are ready to build on the experience of traditional talk therapy with new modalities and perspectives.
My Background and Approach
I believe in the power of creativity, mindfulness, and embodiment as tools for healing and transformation. Whether we're using expressive arts to explore emotions, practicing mindfulness to cultivate self-awareness, or integrating somatic practices to regulate the nervous system, my goal is to empower you to tap into your innate capacity for growth and resilience. I have a sensitive ability to work with past trauma in a safe, incremental way and I'll help you find tools and activities that build on your strengths. We'll always work at the pace you're comfortable with, and with the tools that "click" for you. If simply talking together each week is what feels best for you, it is always an available option.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
