If interested, I will help you delve deeper into your beliefs to better understand how religion and/or spirituality can help you achieve your goals.
My eclectic therapeutic approach draws from my background as a social worker as well as my training in relational psychoanalysis, psychodynamic psychotherapy, and family/marital therapy. While thinking about the person and their environment I focus on the present and revisit the past in order to better understand how it affects one’s current life. I take into account the individual sitting in front of me and how he or she can best benefit from therapy. The therapeutic relationship is of utmost importance in order for therapy to be effective. Clients should feel safe and comfortable opening up to their therapist.

My primary goal as a therapist is to help you become the most authentic and whole version of yourself. I offer an integrative approach to psychotherapy that employs insight and reflection (Psychodynamic Therapy) as well as active coping skills and goal-setting (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy). I am also trained in Integrative Harm Reduction Therapy for those struggling with addictive and compulsive behaviors. Further, I believe lifestyle interventions around nutrition, exercise, meditation, and spirituality can be valuable tools for psychological well-being and I help my clients cultivate positive habits in these areas if applicable.

Therapy is one of the best investments you can make and it will change your life. I work with motivated individuals who are seeking to gain insight and make changes in their lives (internally and externally). Common areas of concern reported by my clients are anxiety, burnout, depression, stress, trauma, low self-esteem, spirituality and relationship issues. While high achieving my clients often feel stuck, unfulfilled or overwhelmed in one or more area of their life.

With over 15 years’ experience as a bilingual Psychotherapist working with very diverse populations from adults to adolescents who experience depression, anxiety, trauma and PTSD I learned that not everyone feels comfortable going to speak to a therapist in a traditional setting like an office. This is why I offer “Walk Talk Therapy” and mobile therapy. I want to eliminate as many barriers as possible for you to get the help you need. Just as we are all encouraged to exercise for our physical health, I believe everyone should connect with a professional therapist to strengthen one’s emotional health.

Everyone has a story to tell and sometimes the bravest thing a person can do is share their story. When your story is holding you back from becoming the greatest version of yourself then it’s time to work through any negative messages you may have been telling yourself. I believe we all have the tools we need to accomplish our goals. If it’s hysterical, it’s historical. I help you identify present day triggers and figure out where it stems from so you can free yourself from what has been holding you back.

Spirituality Therapists

What should I expect from therapy that incorporates a focus on spirituality?

Spirituality can mean different things to different individuals, depending on their experiences, beliefs, and life histories. Some individuals focus on strengthening their belief system, while others experience spirituality in secular ways, such as through meditation, yoga, or by spending time in nature. Clients can expect a therapist to help guide and grow their spirituality through any of these techniques, encouraging the individual to cope with the challenges they face and develop strategies to build resilience and purpose to improve their outlook in life.

What are the most common treatments that include spirituality?

There are several treatments that incorporate spirituality. Mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) helps a person examine and reframe their negative thoughts and behaviors. Acceptance and commitment therapy (ACT) focuses on emotional acceptance and psychological flexibility. Existential therapy is most often used to address anxiety, depression, grief, loneliness, apathy, despair, questions of identity, and feelings of purposelessness and existential dread. Transpersonal therapy focuses on a client’s spirituality and meaning in life and may incorporate techniques including meditation, visualization, hypnotherapy, dream analysis, and or breathwork.

Can therapy incorporating spirituality help atheistic or agnostic individuals?

Yes. For non-believers, spirituality can offer benefits including a greater sense of connection to others and to the natural world. An interest in spirituality may also spur individuals to pursue mindfulness practices, or to contemplate their purpose in life and how to achieve it.

How effective is spirituality as a therapeutic remedy?

​​Research suggests spirituality is generally beneficial for individuals. It is correlated with better health habits, such as less substance use, and an improved capacity to cope with stress and other mental health challenges. Increased spirituality can lead individuals to become more empathic and less materialistic, as well.
