I understand the importance of needing to feel understood and seen. When therapy is successful, we often will experience a greater sense of spaciousness inside ourselves, freedom from our own judgments, and are reminded that confronting our pain won’t destroy us. The goal is not a short-term fix but instead a long-term shift that brings forth feelings of empowerment, resiliency, and a confidence that our brains and our lives can change. As a consequence of shifting our relationship to ourselves and to our pain, the uncomfortable symptoms often associated with anxiety, trauma, and depression begin to dissolve and loosen their grip.
I utilize a somatic psychotherapeutic approach which incorporates the wisdom of mind and body. As a result of overcoming my own obstacles and working with hundreds of clients, I believe that healing is about learning to go inside ourselves to embrace the pain, the fear, the shame, and the trauma that is keeping us stuck.
I hold MA degrees in both Psychology and Education, as well as a Doctorate in Clinical Psychology. I am certified in Peter Levine’s Somatic Experiencing method (SE) which specializes in dealing with trauma. I have worked in clinical settings for 12 years working with anxiety, mood disorders, codependency, depression, addiction, and trauma.
