As a certified complex trauma professional trained in nature-based and energy psychology, I offer a whole human, integrative approach to treatment.
Hello there. My therapeutic approach is guided by over 15 years of work in a variety of health settings including, but not limited to, hospitals, schools, not-for-profits, and wilderness-based programs. I specialize in trauma, anxiety/depression, ADHD, and perinatal mental health. Whether supporting people through difficult life transitions, processing family struggles, or offering parenting support, my practice is deeply rooted in a mindfulness-based, client-centered and integrative approach. I know how strong the healing power of the client-therapist relationship can be if it is grounded in mutuality and respect.

Are you unhappy with the current version of yourself? Or dealing with unrelenting pressure and feel like you’re drowning & can’t keep up with life’s demands? Or maybe you are trapped by your thoughts and finding it hard to get out of your own head. I was right there where you are. I had built a “successful” and “normal” life so I was happy, right? Everything looked good on the outside, but internally, I was a mess. The chronic pain, spacey-ness, irritability, and unrelenting pressure never seemed to stop. I was unhappy and lost in this version of myself, it finally became too much.

Energy Psychology Therapists
What are the roots of energy psychology?
Energy psychology is a relatively new modality, yet it combines older techniques from both Eastern and Western medicine—talk therapy and exposure therapy from a Western orientation and energy fields and healing touch from an Eastern orientation. Although these techniques have long existed, they were developed into today’s form of energy psychology and brought to the fore in the 1980s by psychologists including Fred Gallo, Roger Callahan, and David Feinstein.
Is energy psychology a short-term therapy?
Energy psychology is a brief intervention, designed to provide relief to patients quickly. The exact number of sessions a patient requires varies depending on numerous factors, including the condition being treated, the technique being used, and the practitioner's approach. Some patients may begin to improve after only one session. Proponents of energy therapy point out that it is relatively easy to learn, so clients can practice some of the techniques on themselves at home, such as the acceptance, acupressure, and affirmations used in emotional freedom technique.
Does energy therapy work?
The exposure therapy techniques involved in energy psychology, such as recounting a traumatic experience to the therapist, are evidence-based and have long helped individuals address trauma, phobias, and anxiety. As a whole, the practice isn’t as validated as other techniques, but it may be healing for some. Energy psychology involves exposing a client to a distressing memory, object, or situation in the therapy room while providing acupressure or tapping to relieve distress, which is thought to lower the stress and arousal of the body that had become associated with the relevant stimulus.
What are the limitations of energy therapy?
A disadvantage of energy psychology is that the research supporting its effectiveness is not as robust as research supporting the effectiveness of other therapy types, such as cognitive behavioral therapy or acceptance and commitment therapy, specifically the component of body tapping and touching. Some research on energy psychology has also been critiqued for being methodologically flawed.
