I use an integrative approach that considers the role of both mind and body, as I believe neither are fully separate and both are equally important to mental health. Talk therapy modalities I may use include CBT, psychoeducation, feminist therapy and holistic coaching depending on your unique needs and preferences. I use a neuroscience-informed approach and aim to help you learn how to change the patterns your brain has been making for years that are keeping you stuck. At the same time, I also recognize the importance of societal and external factors that may be contributing to your mental health and we can explore those together.

The dragonfly, in almost every part of the world, symbolizes the change in the perspective of self-realization. The kind of change that has its source in mental and emotional maturity and the understanding of the deeper meaning of life. We weave this meaning into the fabric of our mission and in the work we provide to every client enrolled at SHARE. Are you stuck or lost? Are you struggling with anxiety and fear? Are those intrusive thoughts derailing your days? Feeling disconnected from yourself or your partner(s) can leave you feeling unloved, undesirable, and alone. Whatever your struggle, I am here for you.

Through the process of therapy, you can develop new ways of dealing with conflicts, communication difficulties, grief and loss, and many other daily concerns. In a non-judgmental and supportive environment, you can make positive changes for a stronger today and future. I believe that addressing the relationship between couples may require a “sacred space”. This safe space can allow the therapist to work with couples in breaking down walls that may have kept them trapped in overwhelming situations, and aid them in developing deeper connections

I work with clients seeking better quality of life. Many of my clients have experienced significant hardship and pain from traumatic experiences. Others recognize that they are not experiencing the fullness of joy in their work, relationships or families. They all come to realize that while they might not have power to change everything in their world, they do have tools and power to change some things. My clients grow to develop and utilize skills and habits to bring about positive, healthy changes in their experiences.
