Greetings,
I offer holistic, trauma-informed therapy rooted in EMDR and over 27 years of experience. My work integrates psycho-spiritual and metaphysical principles, supporting healing from trauma, grief (including pet loss), anxiety, and identity challenges tied to immigration and adoption. Using tools like breathwork, meditation, manifestation, ritual, and creative modalities such as AI-generated art, I guide clients in mindset transformation and deep emotional restoration. I honor all spiritual paths and create sacred space for healing, empowerment, and alignment.
I have a specialty in trauma (current, previous, intergenerational). I use EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing) as the primary treatment modality for trauma work. I have been practicing Social Work for 27 years and received my master’s degree in 1998 from Columbia University and Master of Divinity from Union Theological Seminary.
I have an integrative, psycho-spiritual focus and incorporate metaphysical techniques and understanding into my work. My approach is open-minded and hearted, encouraging empowerment, and practical tools. I am open to all spiritual perspectives and describe my practice as holistic psychotherapy. I would be honored to join you on your healing journey.
