I am an LCSW with fifteen years of experience working in an outpatient setting and private practice treating anxiety, mood disorders, grief, acute/chronic stress, relationship/codependency issues, life transitions, and trauma. I approach treatment from a holistic perspective-addressing and integrating all aspects of an individual. Treating the whole person and exploring all of the factors playing a role in your overall well-being. Together we will explore the symptoms, issues, and patterns that are no longer working and develop strategies and techniques to foster a greater self-awareness and understanding as well as to create more internal freedom.

What can clients expect to take away from sessions with you?

In the beginning sessions we will look at personal history, how you got to this point in your life, identifying disruptive life patterns, as well as develop an effective strategy to address what is no longer working.

Explain to clients what areas you feel are your biggest strengths.

I think I come from a unique, open-minded perspective using both clinical skills and intuition in order to help clients develop an understanding of the root cause of imbalance in their lives.

My treatment methods

Mindfulness-Based Therapy

In my clinical practice I have a strong focus on mindfulness-based strategies. I facilitated a mindfulness group for 10+ years teaching strategies and techniques to help individuals increase present moment awareness. This helps a person to gain an understanding of their own patterns as well as how to respond or interrupt those patterns in order to create positive change.

Cognitive Behavioral (CBT)

This treatment modality helps to explore the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. We will work to develop strategies to challenge negative thought patterns, unhealthy emotional responses, and maladaptive behaviors.

Mind-body approach

I use a mind/body approach to explore all of the underlying factors contributing to your overall well-being. Exploring imbalances of mind,body, spirit.

EMDR

EMDR will help to look at how past trauma is affecting your current day functioning. This modality will help to establish safety in order to address a history of trauma, explore core beliefs related to trauma, and use effective means to process memories and events.

Dialectical Behavior (DBT)

DBT is a skill-set using four skills that are a means to improve internal regulation and deal with emotions more effectively. The four skills are mindfulness, distress tolerance, emotion regulation, and interpersonal effectiveness.
