I am a systemic therapist with a focus on relationship whether it's the internal parts of an individual psyche (holistic/systemic, depth psychology, shadow work), relationship with others (couples, friends, family and group), place in the ecosystem (ecotherapy), or existential/spiritual (transpersonal psychology). My education has been on a psychological spectrum with my BA having a cognitive-behavioral perspective, my MA a systems perspective and post-grad, doctoral level classes a transpersonal perspective. I have a passion for healing modalities and tend to take an holistic and evidenced-based approach.
I practice therapy as a healing art and use mindfulness, curiosity and creativity as tools of empowered transformation. My role is to assist you in coming into a state of relaxation to process emotions effectively, communicate authentically and build skills for maintaining positive change. This is an experiential approach moving you from healing into growth.
Currently I am offering a therapeutic improv group for those who have done significant healing work and are looking to build skills. This is a creative group based on theatrical improvisation of co creating a reality, accepting the offers of others and staying authentic in your offers. The group will be doing scene work as well as processing experiences.

Therapeutic Improv - building skills through play

This an 8 week group for those who have done healing work and are ready to challenge themselves to develop skills based on that healing. It is particularly good for those wanting to develop greater ability to create boundaries, communicate authentically, process emotions and give/receive constructive feedback. We will focus on co-creating a base reality, creating characters who already know how to do the skill you want to build, and using curiosity to maintain the “yes, and” ethos of improvisation. We will begin each session with a mindfulness exercise to bring you into presence and encourage creativity. And end with processing our experience.
