Welcome! I'm Edith, a licensed clinical social worker, mental health therapist, certified yoga teacher, and wellness life coach passionate about empowering individuals on their journey to well-being and personal growth. At the heart of my practice is a trauma-informed, holistic approach that blends therapeutic support, mindfulness, and yoga to nurture mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual balance. My mission is to provide a safe, empathetic, and empowering space for you to explore, heal, and grow.
In our first session, we'll begin with a moment to connect and introduce ourselves, setting the stage for mutual understanding and respect. We'll then explore the specific challenges and experiences you're facing, allowing me to listen deeply to your story and the nuances of your situation. This conversation is the foundation of our work together, enabling me to tailor a therapeutic plan uniquely suited to your needs and goals. You can expect this session to be a safe, supportive, and compassionate space where your thoughts and feelings are validated, and we start laying the groundwork for your path forward. Our initial meeting is not just about assessment; it's an opportunity for you to experience a sense of being heard and understood, setting the tone for our therapeutic journey.
I excel in creating a safe, supportive, and non-judgmental space where individuals feel heard and understood, which is crucial for healing and personal growth. My ability to connect with clients on a profound level allows me to tailor effective and empowering interventions. Furthermore, my strength-based perspective encourages clients to recognize and build upon their inherent capabilities, fostering a sense of self-efficacy and resilience. Lastly, my dedication to continuous learning and professional development ensures that I remain at the forefront of therapeutic practices, enabling me to offer the most current and impactful support to those I serve.
I specialize in assisting those navigating ADHD, complex trauma, depression, and anxiety, as well as supporting non-profit employees, educators, students, fellow therapists, and healers. Together, we'll harness your inherent strengths and resilience, crafting a path toward healing and fulfillment that honors your unique story and aspirations.
In my practice, I deeply integrate a trauma-informed lens, recognizing the pervasive impact of trauma on an individual's mental, emotional, and physical well-being. This approach is rooted in understanding, recognizing, and responding to the effects of all types of trauma. By prioritizing safety, choice, collaboration, trustworthiness, and empowerment, I ensure that the therapeutic space is secure and supportive for all individuals.
Employing a strength-based perspective, I focus on the inherent strengths and resilience of each client, guiding them to recognize and utilize these assets in their healing journey. This method fosters a positive self-view and encourages a path of growth that is reflective of their capabilities and potential.
My holistic perspective ensures that I address the multifaceted nature of individuals—acknowledging the interconnectedness of mind, body, and spirit. Integrating techniques from clinical social work, mindfulness, and yoga, I offer a comprehensive approach that supports overall health and personal development.
