My therapeutic approach is grounded in the idea of a deep connection between the mind and the physical body, and the intrinsic ability in all people to heal, grow, and make positive change through the transformative power of their own mind. This ideology is informed by my time at Columbia University’s Spirituality Mind Body Institute, where I received my Master’s in Clinical Psychology and Spirituality. There I learned the science of mindfulness and the ways in which our thought patterns are capable of both positively and negatively effecting not only one’s emotional/ mental state but the physical body as well.
I specialize in working with individuals who have experienced/experience trauma, anxiety, depression, and OCD, and help clients work through the impact these issues can have on their interpersonal relationships, career, social life, motivation, and sense of self. I also work with clients experiencing dating, relationship, and intimacy issues.
In my practice I utilize a wide range of therapeutic techniques, and appreciate the benefit of integrating traditional psychotherapeutic modalities with less traditional methods which utilize my alternative background. I have training in CBT, DBT, mindfulness and meditation, the Alexander Technique from Ted Dimon, founder of the Dimon Institute, and trauma-informed therapy from Dr. Bessel van der Kolk’s Trauma Research Foundation.
As a therapist I believe that everyone is on a unique path and journey towards self-actualization, therefore there is no real textbook approach to therapy. As a clinician I make space for the individual and prioritize fostering a safe, open, empathic, and flexible environment for my clients to explore, navigate, and better comprehend both their inner and outer worlds. I show up for my clients with compassion and non-judgment, and perhaps more importantly, I encourage my clients to show up for themselves with the same compassion and non-judgment.
Whether you’re new to therapy or have been in therapy for many years, I will work with you toward reaching your goals, getting “unstuck,” and gaining a better understanding of yourself and your interpersonal relationships.
No matter where you are on your path, I’m here to support you in cultivating the inner and outer world you seek!
