Dance Movement Therapy in Vandalia, OH

Hello! I am a board-certified Dance/Movement Therapist and Licensed Professional Clinical Counselor. I strive to assist my clients to move through challenging experiences by helping them with understanding the power of the mind/body connection. The hope is that once this connection is better understood, an individual can reconnect to their life fully. I have had the privilege to work in community, school, and hospital environments as well as private practice settings with children to adults.

There is a curious habit that I've noticed, especially when working with teens, that clients will mostly only work on the "issue of the week." This can have numerous benefits and can also delay the client's progress on any underlying concerns or patterns. Ideally, once a client has agreed to their treatment goals, they continue to take attainable steps towards that goal in therapy and in their daily life. When a client feels comfortable with their therapist to share their thoughts, emotions, and vulnerabilities, then deeper work can happen.

I operate from a client centered perspective, which means that your unique needs, values, and goals are at the heart of our therapeutic relationship. I provide a non-judgmental and compassionate space where you can explore your thoughts, emotions, and experiences openly and authentically. Together, we will work collaboratively to help you gain insight, make positive changes, and achieve a sense of balance and well being.

Times of chaos, confusion, and challenge are opportunities for a shift in perspective and meaningful, long-lasting change. We don't often have a choice about challenging circumstances but we do get to choose how we respond and whether or not we grow stronger from the experience! Using a blend of traditional "talk therapy" and alternative therapies (such as mindfulness, somatic awareness, and creative expression) we collaborate for my clients' restoration of their natural wellness in mind, body, and spirit. I can help you become your best self!

I work well with teen and adult clients who are trauma survivors and help individuals find voice to make meaning, particularly through the use of creativity. I work well with clients who are seeking help with mental health issues such as PTSD, anxiety, depression, identity issues and/or substance use. Many of my clients report they have found value in the therapeutic alliance we co-create, as I make establishing trust and safety a key value. I believe that individuals possess the innate potential to discover healing and define their own journey. I work with persons aged 13 and up.

Life can be incredibly overwhelming and sometimes, we can be surrounded by people and still feel completely alone. My goal is to help guide you on your journey to self-love, inner peace and personal growth. You are an amazingly beautiful human, who is worthy of love. The path may not be easy, it is however worth the work.

You feel as though nobody understands what it’s like to try and move on from distressful events of the past, face a major life transition, fear public speaking or to deal with other major life challenges. On the outside the illusion is you are holding it all together, but on the inside it’s a different story. You can’t just “suck it up” anymore. You don’t feel like yourself. When you’re alone with your thoughts you may even wonder who you really are anymore or how you're going to get through. You want more joy, authenticity and purpose in your life, to be the best version of yourself. I can help you get there.
