Are you struggling with worries, anxiety, self doubt, depression, or stress? The wisdom of a holistic based therapy might be for you. As an experienced psychologist, I’ve helped numerous clients from pre-adolescents to adults in dealing with anxiety, stress, trauma, loneliness, depression, grief and relational issues. As a meditation/yoga teacher, I blend psychology with various mind-body therapies to assist clients in gaining holistic tools for managing the tough times. Treatment typically begins with traditional psychotherapy but can also include integrative therapies (meditation & breathwork & brainspotting.
I work with clients in a collaborative manner; assisting them in lessening anxiety, depression, and self-doubt. I assist them in gaining greater self-confidence, joy, and happiness. Together we can create a plan for your success using the tools of mindfulness, brainspotting, ACT and cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT). I work with clients ages 12-adults.
As an experienced psychologist, I have 20+ years of training in a variety of therapeutic styles and specialize in therapy for anxiety and stress reduction for pre- teens, teens and adults. I also work within areas of life changes, relationship issues, and work with many high school and college students. I see clients from many backgrounds and cultures.
