Healing is not about control, but about learning to adapt and move forward with your life as you repair your relationships and find balance. In my decade of professional experience, including my tenure as a clinician and Senior Manager of Outpatient Services at Mountainside treatment center, I have sown a passion for helping people in their journey for healing and sobriety. At Mountainside, I design curriculums for clinical programming and incorporate Interpersonal Neurobiology and a trauma responsive framework into one-on-one counseling, group therapy, family sessions, and supervision.

Life is unpredictable, often full of challenges and painful moments that strain us to the edges of our capacity for survival. We all want more than that, more than just surviving. Everyone deserves to live a life that feels meaningful and satisfying, to have connected and fulfilling relationships, and to trust in our own strengths. I invite you to join with me in getting curious about yourself and your life in a way that is, open, receptive, and non-judgmental. We’ll notice some of the ways that your lived experience has taught you to think about yourself, about others, and what to expect from the world.

The fact that you're here searching for a therapist gives me hope. Maybe it means you are starting to realize that it's okay to ask for help. I have experience working with adults possessing a variety of perspectives, personalities, and life situations. As a result, I have developed a great appreciation for the human experience. Along the way, I happened to develop expertise in my role as helper. I enjoy working with individuals who experience anxiety, depression, and the lingering effects of trauma. I have special interest in teaching assertive communication and in helping people with social anxiety.

Did you know that the most important part of communication is invisible! It is more than words, gestures, and tone. It is called “mentalizing.” Mentalizing is a genetic brain network used for making sense of what people say-it helps us understand the mental states of others and thus, know how they might respond to us. Genetic variations in this brain network can lead to great skill or mild to severe difficulties in communication effectiveness. A person can have average to superior intelligence and still have difficulty understanding the mental states of others. Connection with others may be difficult to establish or preserve.

10/10/22: Telehealth clients only. Morning availability. I am a board-certified art therapist and licensed professional counselor with 14 years of clinical experience. I specialize in early childhood mental health but work with all ages. I trust in the wisdom of clients' abilities to explore their own themes, symbols, and stories. Because we all develop our senses of self and safety within the context of early relationships, family/relationship-based work is essential. My art/play therapy practice is trauma and Polyvagal Theory-informed. My approach is flexible, solution-focused, and non-judgmental.

Personal power is a phrase often said, but not always understood. Owning the impact of the choices you make, comes with recognizing the power your voice and behavior have on your future. The journey I have chosen has offered me the understanding of the physical and emotional impact of change, by owning my power to have the life I want. I want to offer you the support we all require, to consciously begin your journey to own your power to change your life.

I enjoy working with womxn who are looking to find their life work and soul's calling. Who desire a stronger connection to the earth and their ancestors and have a desire to slow down. I often work with individuals who carry a great deal of stress in their bodies from past trauma - showing up as autoimmune and hormonal issues. We will work together to find the root of the symptoms arising to allow for healing. My focus is on helping you find meaning in your life while fostering a sense of purpose. We will work together to build your own personal narrative through the use of art, nature, writing and meditation.
