A Different Approach! Traditional methods of treatment join together with Holistic (Alternative) practices. My approach is down-to-earth, accessible and welcomes all people of every belief system and/or faith. Talk therapy, CBT, and psycho-dynamic work blend with Energy Psychology, Tarot Psychology, Meditation and more to create a balancing of Mind, Body, Emotion and Spirit so that you can continue to heal yourself even when you are not in session. This approach is based on empowerment and is perfect for people with any level of spiritual practice, whether they believe in the Divine or just feel drawn to Nature or energy work.
I have over 25 years of experience in mental health including inpatient, outpatient, Addictions, Corrections, and Hospice. I have studied alternative practices including energy work, Tarot, Meditation and Spiritual Science for over 15 years. My specialties include Anxiety, Panic, Depression, Highly Sensitive Persons and victims of Narcissistic Abuse.
I am excited to offer something different for those who resonate with combining the traditional with the alternative. In the past, I struggled with severe anxiety and depression myself before I discovered the power of Meditation and alternative practices to create lasting wellness. If this approach appeals to you, please reach out or click on my website!
