Therapy with me is about befriending oneself unconditionally, with compassion and kindness. Through traumas, life transitions, mistakes, and successes, mindfulness can be that constant strategy that allows you to be grounded firmly in your healing. My approach is holistic, and one that synthesizes the mind, body, and spirit. My work is rooted in yoga and Buddhist practices and my professional social work experience of 18 years. My practice is LGBTQIA2S-affirming, pro-fat and anti-racist. My areas of specialty are: anxiety, depression, chronic/terminal illness, grief, burnout, body image, relationships, and immigrant issues.
My overarching goal is to help you build resilience and confidence in living your best life. I use mindfulness as a primary modality and blend it with other psychotherapeutic approaches like EMDR and Brainspotting to meet your needs. I draw from psychology, Yoga, Buddhism, and sociology and see myself as a collaborator and co-conspirator in your journey.
Seeking help can be challenging and you have crossed the first hurdle. A positive therapeutic relationship can be empowering to take action that best serves you and your overall vision for life. Please connect with me for a FREE initial consultation (20-minutes) to see if my practice would be a good fit for you. I look forward to connecting with you.
