I believe that true emotional healing comes through holistically tending to the body, mind and spirit. I offer full range psychotherapy services that I combine with several Somatic or body-based techniques. As a registered Yoga Teacher, I have been known to incorporate meditation, breathing or physical postures in my sessions. The research shows that trauma, grief and the after effects of some of our experiences are stored in our bodies. What better way to heal or release them from our bodies than to intentionally use body exercises to move this harmful trauma energy out for good. I work with new mothers, children and families.
I specialize in integrative psychotherapy. I use a variety techniques to help my clients work through their trauma, grief, anxiety and etc. I specialize in looking at the whole client in their environment to assess and treat not only their symptoms but the root cause.
If you are hurting, anxious, sad or feel that there are some things that are holding you back from you achieving your fullest potential, I invite you to let me guide you back to center. I will create a holistic minded plan to help you heal and enjoy this beautiful life again.

In my therapy practice, I incorporate EMDR to help clients process traumatic memories and reduce their emotional impact. I use NLP techniques to facilitate positive behavioral changes and reframe limiting beliefs. Additionally, somatic work is integrated to promote body awareness and help clients release stored tension, fostering holistic healing.
