As a holistic LCSW, I specialize in helping women and families through life transitions, career changes, stress, anxiety, and depression. As a seasoned therapist and certified yoga instructor, I bring years of experience in integrating traditional therapy with holistic practices to foster comprehensive well-being. My therapeutic approach is rooted in the belief that true healing encompasses the mind, body, and spirit. Offering walk & talk therapy which involves having therapy sessions outdoors, combining physical activity with mental health treatment for a more relaxed setting.

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

In your first session with me, you can expect a warm and welcoming environment where we will discuss your reasons for seeking therapy and your goals. We'll explore your history, current challenges, and any previous therapeutic experiences. This session is an opportunity for us to build rapport and for you to ask any questions you may have. By the end, we will outline a personalized plan that integrates traditional therapy and holistic practices to support your journey towards well-being.

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

My goal is to create a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space where you can explore your thoughts, emotions, and behaviors to gain deeper self-awareness and achieve lasting positive change. Whether you are seeking to alleviate stress, improve emotional regulation, or enhance your overall quality of life, I am here to support you every step of the way with compassion and expertise.

My treatment methods

Biofeedback

In my practice, I utilize biofeedback as a tool to help clients gain awareness and control over their physiological responses. By monitoring bodily functions such as heart rate variability, muscle tension, and skin conductance, I guide clients in learning relaxation techniques and stress management skills, empowering them to regulate their body's responses and improve their overall well-being.

Family Therapy

In family therapy, I employ systemic approaches to understand and address relational dynamics within the family unit. Drawing from various modalities such as structural, strategic, and narrative therapy, I facilitate open communication, foster empathy, and promote understanding among family members to promote healing and create positive change within the family system.

Strength-Based

Strength-based therapy emphasizes identifying and leveraging a client's inherent strengths, resources, and resilience to facilitate growth and change. In my practice, I prioritize highlighting and building upon clients' strengths, fostering empowerment and self-efficacy. By focusing on what clients are already doing well and what has worked for them in the past, we collaboratively work towards their goals in a positive and affirming manner.

Trauma Informed Care

In my practice, trauma-informed care is foundational, ensuring a safe and supportive environment for clients who have experienced trauma. I integrate trauma-informed principles into every aspect of therapy, prioritizing safety, empowerment, and collaboration, and I utilize evidence-based techniques such as grounding exercises and narrative therapy to help clients process and heal from their traumatic experiences.

Solution Focused Brief Treatment

In my practice, I utilize Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT) to help clients quickly identify their strengths, resources, and goals, fostering positive change. By focusing on solutions rather than problems and employing techniques like scaling questions and the miracle question, I empower clients to make meaningful progress towards their desired outcomes in a time-limited manner, typically within a few sessions.
