To schedule sessions, please book a call with our Client Care Coordinator here: www.calendly.com/adminccbh Starting this process can feel overwhelming, but it doesn't have to be. Using warmth, empathy, direct feedback and skill building I can help you more fully understand yourself and your relationships and therefore feel empowered to start living the life you want to live. I firmly believe that healing comes from exploring how our past experiences have affected the ways in which we interpret and interact with our world in the present.
I specialize in Perinatal Mental Health, developmental/relational trauma (difficult childhoods, parents who struggled with mental/physical health issues, etc.), sexual abuse, women's issues & difficulties navigating life transitions. I'm also a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP) and working towards my Perinatal Mental Health Certification (PMH-C).
I utilize an integrative approach, grounded in psychodynamic theory, and pull from solution-focused techniques using CBT, DBT, and Mindfulness to help provide more immediate relief. I also provide supervision for graduate students, postdocs and early career therapists, as well as consultation for therapists seeking guidance on treating complex trauma.
