Depending on client's presenting issue, my treatment approach varies from concrete problem solving, using mindfulness, parts-Internal Family Systems model, Hypnosis, Holotropic Breathwork, Ketamine Assisted Psychotherapy and Psychodynamic Integration.
In my practice, by face to face sessions or by using online Telehealth confidential therapy, I work with clients to feel comfortable and to form a bond, based on trust, that will foster a relaxed positive therapeutic interaction. It is important to me that, from the very first session, the client can communicate his or her story and feels heard, so that I can understand the presenting issues, communicate hope, and formulate mutually agreeable goals to achieve in our work together.

My goal as your therapist is to help you achieve peace with your past and develop healthy ways to cope in the present. I have 7 years of experience providing individual and group therapy. I am trained in EMDR (an evidence-based approach to addressing trauma, grief, loss and negative thinking). I am also fully trained in CPT (a specific type of Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for PTSD). In addition, I utilize CBT essentials, motivational interviewing, and various other therapeutic interventions as well as a 12 step informed approach to recovery. I provide a safe, empathetic, supportive environment where you can feel comfortable.

Waitlist for new clients
Note: Email is the best way to reach me for faster reply. I am a therapist who is passionate about helping my clients regain (or maybe gain for the first time) a true sense of self. Addiction, old behavior patterns, unhealthy coping mechanisms... they can all derail us from discovering our authenticity and our purpose in life. I have experience in helping clients of all backgrounds move into recovery from alcohol and substance use disorders, behavioral addictions, anxiety disorders, and depression.

Life challenges us sometimes to dig deep within ourselves to work through difficult issues we are facing. Sometimes we need a kind ear to listen, and other times we are seeking insight into the roots of unwanted behavioral or emotional patterns. My clinical practice focuses on treating adults and children experiencing a variety of challenges in their lives with compassion, open-mindedness and straightforward feedback. I integrate a variety of treatment modalities in an atmosphere of safety, warmth and empathy. Together, we can work towards the aspects of your life that lead you closer to experiencing a happy and healthy life.

Internal Family Systems (IFS) Therapists
What is Internal Family Systems therapy?
Internal Family Systems (IFS) is a type of talk therapy that focuses on sub-personalities, or “families,” within a person, which may be made up of wounded parts and unpleasant emotions like anger and shame. These sub-personalities can come into conflict with each other and with an individual’s core Self, leaving the person feeling detached from positive traits such as the “8 C’s” of confidence, calmness, creativity, clarity, curiosity, courage, compassion, and connectedness. By healing a patient’s wounded parts, a therapist aims to restore balance and bring on positive change.
How does Internal Family Systems therapy work?
An IFS therapist will work with a patient to identify their particular sub-personalities, recognize the emotions powering them, and release them. By doing so, the patient should become more able to address any underlying problems their sub-personalities may have been trying to protect them from. Ultimately, a patient discovers ways to manage internal and external conflicts on their own, through techniques such as relaxation exercises, journaling, and making charts depicting the relationships between their core Self and their distinct parts.
Does Internal Family Systems therapy work?
IFS therapy has been shown to help people address conditions such as depression, anxiety, panic, fears and phobias, trauma, and substance use disorders. Some research has also found that it can help individuals deal with symptoms of physical health conditions like rheumatoid arthritis, such as pain, everyday functioning, depressive feelings, and low self-compassion. There are some conditions for which IFS treatment, specifically discussions of one’s “parts,” may be less appropriate, such as schizophrenia or other states that involve psychosis or paranoia.
How long does Internal Family Systems therapy take?
As with most forms of talk therapy, there is no set duration or end point for IFS therapy. After becoming comfortable with a therapist and the core concepts of IFS, some patients quickly make progress. While experiences vary, most will find that it is a relatively longer-term therapy, involving months and sometimes years of sessions.
