If you're looking for an integrative approach for support, I invite you to reach out.
While active listening is an important skill for a therapist, listening is only a small part of what therapy might look like. Therapy is meant to be explorative, challenging, and a place that is solely for you and your needs. It is meant to give you tools and skills to improve daily functioning, identify meaning and fulfillment for yourself, create and maintain a safe headspace of thoughts, and build strong, intrapersonal, emotional intelligence. Sometimes our anxiety and other mental health issues we have developed over time can get into the way of living well or even knowing what that means for ourselves or our partner(s).

I work from an integrative, holistic approach, emphasizing mindfulness, creative expression, and somatic connection.
One of the greatest offerings of therapy is the opportunity for change. I work both with clients who are wanting change and those who have been thrust into change without asking for it. Clients facing complex trauma & PTSD, grief, life transitions, and other big hurdles can find balance and restoration in their work with me. I help clients to reconstruct their relationships with trauma, loss, anxiety, and with the other people in their lives.

Feeling anxious? Using mind-body integration, I approach healing in a different way. If you've found that talk alone has not worked, then I may be a good fit for you. Using simple tools, you will learn to be more present, energized and balanced. As the Founder, creator and original owner of Lift Yoga Studio, I weave in breathwork, meditation, grounding, regulation, movement all as part of the healing process.

Many events in life that bring us joy also come with stress, uncertainty & loss. While struggles experienced from major life transitions can be painful, they provide us with opportunities for growth. Working with clients who are adjusting to a major life change is something I am passionate about as a therapist. Getting married, starting a family, struggling in a relationship, contemplating or going through divorce, changing or leaving a career, becoming empty nesters, these are common transitions that can be hard to deal with and make us question our identity. If you need support dealing with a major life change I'm here to help.

I work with couples, individuals and families. My specialties include relationship struggles, grief and loss, blended families, boundaries, and launching young adults. My strengths rest in the ability to help you successfully navigate the challenges that may be encountered during life's struggles. Life transitions can be difficult. These stages may include: marriage and remarriage, family creation and blending, young adult children who are launching and becoming independent, parent's struggling with how to fill their "empty nest," and adult children caring for their elderly parents.

I have over 25 years working in the field of psychology. I believe that the key to most emotional and psychological problems lies in relationships, those in the past and in the present. I believe conscious and unconscious behavior patterns can cause difficulties in life, and these behavior problems can be changed or modified. My approach is eclectic , and I use various modalities within a psychodynamic framework. I am also trained as a trauma specialist and EMDR therapist. I believe trauma can keep people stuck in behaviors and emotional dysfunction and EMDR is a highly effective way of reprocessing "stuck" trauma.

I help persons of all ages whose anxiety is spoiling their ability to participate fully in life. Chronic untreated anxiety is a deep form of suffering not visible to others. Treatment starts when you feel really heard and understood. I always begin by listening deeply. The journey of healing and change can be made a bit lighter when shared with a caring therapist. I provide safe, supportive and interactive help to enable you, or your loved one, to manage and overcome anxieties and fears. Together we can make your life and relationships better.

In life, there are times when we feel stuck, either in a negative mindset, bad habit or situation wondering what happened and how we arrived at such a place. Often times our problems/situations are prolonged or hidden by shame, defense, hurt or anger. In these situations, what is needed is a safe nonjudgmental space where we feel seen and understood, and to explore challenges in our lives, and the possibility of change. Therapy is meant to create a safe space that allows emotional healing and restoration to take place through rapport building, openness, trust, and awareness.

Integrative Therapists
What is integrative therapy?
Integrative therapy is a type of therapy that combines ideas and techniques from different therapeutic approaches depending on the needs of the individual client. By merging elements of different treatments, an integrative therapist aims to offer a more flexible approach than those who practice just one type of therapy.
How does integrative therapy work?
Integrative therapy approaches a client’s mental, physical, and emotional health in a holistic way to discover the sources of their unhealthy behavior patterns or other challenges and considers the approach most likely to lead to improvement. Among the techniques an integrative therapist may practice are cognitive-behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, EMDR, mindfulness, art or music therapy, psychodynamic therapy, breathwork, family systems therapy, gestalt therapy, and trauma-informed therapy. An integrative therapist regularly evaluates the client’s progress and is prepared to pivot to a different approach if progress stalls.
How long does integrative therapy last?
As with most forms of talk therapy, there is no set duration or end point for integrative therapy; people who find they are making progress typically continue until they feel they’ve addressed the issues that spurred them to seek treatment. New patients should understand that it may take some time for a therapist to land on a treatment approach that best meets their needs, but once they do, they should expect sessions to extend for a number of months, typically including at least 12 sessions.
How effective is integrative therapy?
There are hundreds of types of talk therapy, and research shows that while they vary in form, goals, and frequency, many if not all can produce similarly successful outcomes. But a single approach does not always deliver the greatest, or speediest, benefit, and so even therapists primarily trained in one model will use tools, language, techniques, or exercises from others to shape an effective treatment plan.
