Welcome! I'm licensed in ME & NY. I believe the work is to find our way back to what is already whole. My mission is to help you reshape your neural landscape and support a life of meaning and resilience. Additionally, my approach can be directive & challenge you to be courageous & confront yourself in order to unburden & heal. This can be intense work as we together invite the best version of yourself to step up & evolve, by befriending your nervous system and creating more effective patterns/beliefs & internal resources. I truly enjoy this work & bringing humor & levity to my sessions with individuals, families, couples & groups.
I have developed an integrated approach to treatment which is individualized and may include; Mindfulness, EMDR, IFS/Ego state work, Polyvagal theory, Neuroscience, DBT, Body Oriented Psychotherapy, Expressive Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Mindful & Intuitive Eating, HAES. Sex Therapy/Couples work: Terry Real, Gottmans, Gina Ogden, Ester Perel, David Schnarch.
