Do you feel that anxiety, stress and panic are taking a toll on your body and mind? My approach to therapy is to create a safe space where you can explore and heal the difficult and painful issues that are showing up in your life. Together we will move beyond problem-solving into releasing the mistaken beliefs and core unresolved issues behind your symptoms. My body-centered and mindfulness approach allows me to work directly with your nervous system to address symptoms like anxiety, racing thoughts, and irrational fears as well as feeling stuck, depressed and unavailable or unresponsive to life and relationships.
I integrate traditional psychotherapy with coaching, mindfulness, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Internal Family Systems and other evidence-based approaches. We work together to clear that path so that you're most authentic, creative, and passionate self can emerge and shine through. I specialize in parenting, chronic illness, teens, & artist's journeys.
I encourage you to reach out for a free consultation and see what’s possible when you invest time and energy into your healing. I help individuals open a transformational space where anything is possible. I also work with creatives to master their relationship between themselves and their art to be at the top of their game.
