Emmaus, PA 18049 (Online Only)
I have worked with many people struggling with depression, anxiety, low self-esteem, low self worth, rumination, difficulty finding meaning and purpose in life. Perhaps due to current overwhelming situations, past traumas or living far away from home and having difficulty acclimating. I am passionate about helping people gain a better understanding between surviving and thriving, gaining a better understanding of their strengths and resiliencies, finding and implementing healthy coping skills, goals and confidence needed to move forward.

I am a kind, skilled therapist who will meet you where you are at, and work with you to find a path towards your hopes and dreams. You can choose from a variety of healing practices such as mindfulness and movement, or cognitive therapy, to gather resources that will help you heal both the mind and the body. I work with children and adults, with trauma and dissociative disorders, mood disorders (anxiety, depression), ADHD, and big emotions and behaviors. I also consult with groups (schools, institutes), individuals and parent groups, to educate about trauma and parenting. Lets "zoom" or meet in my office!

It is easy to feel overwhelmed and lose one's sense of True North. Issues and experiences from the past may require healing and integration. Current challenges may require more inner wisdom and resourcefulness than we can access on our own. Many people need support to resolve conflicts, deepen connections and expand their lives. Relationships require a solid sense of self, good boundaries, and compassion toward oneself and others, which all can be learned. Even without a religious affiliation, spiritual practices such as gratitude are often enriching. I value new insights, suggest homework and teach practical skills.

How does culturally sensitive therapy work?
A culturally sensitive therapist will tailor their approach to therapy based on the individual client’s background. This may include changing their style of interaction (asking open-ended questions vs. being the “expert” voice), their affect (seeming warm or “neutral”), how much personal information they disclose about themselves, and more. It’s also important for a culturally sensitive therapist to acknowledge larger societal forces that may impact their client due to the client’s background.
How effective is culturally sensitive therapy?
Some professionals have expressed concern about highlighting cultural differences in therapy, suggesting that it might promote stereotypes and harm the therapeutic bond; however, many experts agree that cultural sensitivity tends to strengthen the connection between therapist and client and help clients feel heard and understood. A culturally sensitive approach to therapy can be especially helpful for those not in the cultural majority, especially when combined with proven therapies like Cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT).
What are the limitations of a culturally sensitive approach to therapy?
While being culturally sensitive is generally a valuable skill to have, a therapist cannot treat every client from a similar background the same way. Each client is an individual with their own values, personal preferences, and life experiences that will need to be explored during therapy. In addition, it’s rare for a therapist and client to have identical backgrounds, so there may be some cross-cultural differences to navigate during therapy, but a culturally sensitive therapist can do so with empathy and respect.
Can culturally sensitive therapy be done online?
Yes, online therapy using a culturally sensitive approach can be beneficial. Therapy can sometimes be difficult to access for clients from diverse backgrounds and socioeconomic standing. The array of mental health support available through the internet makes it possible for clients to find a good therapist match regardless of where they live.
