WELCOME to your Therapeutic HOLISTIC WELLNESS ENRICHMENT CENTER. Do you want to learn to go with the flow DAILY, live in the here and now, and manage uncertainty? As an experienced Somatic Integrative Psychotherapist, Spiritual Coach I specialize in helping individuals gain insight and mind/body & spiritual strength. While we can't change difficult situations of the past, we can collaborate to help you accept feelings, let go of mind/body connections to stress, trauma, illness and triggers. Our body CERTAINLY hears what our mind says! By using healing techniques, you can let go of epigenetic traumas by their roots to become unstuck.

Have you been experiencing increased anxiety, depression, fear or loneliness? Are you struggling with emotions and behaviors you would like to change? As humans, we need connections to others for encouragement, especially when we are suffering from the unexpected challenges this world brings. With support and feedback we can find meaning and purpose even through painful events. I combine Mindfulness, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, CBT, Dialectical Behavioral Therapy, DBT, to provide a safe, confidential environment where you are free to explore, empower yourself and develop into the person you want to be.

In my work I pull from a wide array of modalities including Narrative Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Strategic Family Therapy, Solution Focused, and Intergenerational Family therapy. I have worked with children as young as four years old, teens, young adults, couples, and all kinds of families.  My experience includes providing therapy in a multitude of settings including Intensive In-Home, outpatient clinics, and private practice. In my over five years of clinical practice, I have worked with families where addiction is present.

Reaching out for support can be extremely difficult...trust me, I have been there myself! It really is the first step towards unlocking all of life's possibilities and potential to heal and grow. Therapy is a gift and allowing me the ability to experience this transformative journey with you is a gift to me. My goal is to provide a collaborative, safe, and comfortable space where you feel seen, supported, and connected. I believe therapy is nourishment for social, emotional, spiritual, and physical well-being. I use my dietetic background for a holistic approach. Together, we will find a path that works best for you!

Welcome! I help teens and adults with eating disorders/disordered eating, mood and anxiety issues, life stressors and transitions. "Over-thinking, people-pleasing, perfectionism, feeling out of control, stuck or disconnected" are some ways my clients describe their difficulties. These issues may be eating/body-related and/or may impact other areas such as friendship/relationship patterns, school/work functioning or low self-esteem. A common need is to bring balance and flexibility back into behaviors and thoughts, in turn, freeing up valuable mental space, time and energy that can then be directed towards meaningful life values.

Do you see your teen or young adult child grappling with anxiety on a daily basis? Do you wish you could help them manage their painful emotions, but you keep getting shut out? Perhaps there's been a traumatic event, like a difficult divorce, a challenging medical diagnosis, or even the profound shifts that come with life transitions. Alternatively, it may be the relentless pace of today's world that's taking its toll. Would you like to see your kid thriving and managing the challenges of life in a healthy way?

Overthinking Wellness specializes in exploring, treating, and managing anxiety, ADHD/autism, big life changes, neurodivergence, emotional dysregulation, oppositional behaviors, and executive dysfunction.

In the comfort of your own home, I'm happy to help you or your teen get through this challenging time.

As a therapist, I work with children, adults, couples, and families as they navigate various life transitions. This can include reorganization within the family system, through either a new marriage, a separation or divorce, birth of a new family member, the exploration of alternative family building options, or various other life events. Our lives are constantly in flux, and we all sometimes need support to navigate these decision points and learn to better manage the anxiety they create.

I've provided individual and group therapy for at-risk youth, trauma-focused care for survivors of abuse, and relaxation training for adults experiencing anxiety and depression. I also teach mindfulness, emotion regulation, interpersonal effectiveness, and distress tolerance skills. I've conducted cognitive and personality assessments for those with learning, attention, and/or emotional concerns as well as pre-trial adult forensic evaluations. I value providing culturally-sensitive treatment if you wish to discuss your cultural background and/or religious/spiritual beliefs in therapy.

I love working with girls and women along the full spectrum of reproductive life, from adolescence through older adulthood and menopause. I offer pregnancy and postpartum support, including for Perinatal Mood and Anxiety Disorders (PMADS), NICU parenting, birth trauma, the transition to motherhood, parenting stress, and balancing personal and professional life post-baby.

I believe this can be the start of your journey to finding hope, wellness, self-empowerment, and joy. I will strive to meet you with compassion, affirmation, and understanding no matter what identities, experiences, and values you hold. I will always seek to support you and to best meet your individual needs in the present moment. If you’re struggling with perfectionism, people-pleasing, anxiety, high sensitivity, relationships, communication, or life transitions, together we can start to work through whatever you’re feeling and discover what’s going on under the surface.

Weekend appointments available. I appreciate an open dialogue with my clients that incorporates feedback to ensure their needs are being met during our time together.  In my view, the client-therapist relationship should prioritize honesty and respect and while diagnosing is one aspect of psychotherapy, I am most interested in how your daily life is being impacted and what we can do in our work together to develop coping and awareness that will bring more harmony and help you lead a more fulfilled life.

I am a licensed clinical social worker with over 18 years of experience providing quality mental health care and training. I will provide an empathetic and non-judgmental approach. Each person is unique as are their circumstances and the type of support they need. I will help you identify what is challenging in your life and learn how to apply coping skills and mindfulness to improve daily functioning. The appointments are a collaborative process. During our time together, I will take into account the emotional, cognitive, physical, and cultural aspects that make you unique.
