I'd love the opportunity to connect with you to show you how my integrative approach can help you gain understanding and self-resiliency.
You've been in therapy before. And you're psychologically savvy enough to know that growth doesn't have to do with finding a diagnosis and grabbing a few coping skills for the road. As any normal human does, we develop narratives and behavioral patterns to help us ignore, numb, protect, or compartmentalize our psychological conflicts. If you're reading this and you can relate, I see you. You need to find a therapist who can help you to dig deep enough to identify these patterns and change the old narratives. Some of these patterns MAY include:

Clients describe my presence to be grounded, connected, and REAL! (I mean, this growth shit can be messy and kind of suck- right?) My approach is integrative- emphasizing depth psychology, attachment, examining family and cultural beliefs, connecting to your spirituality, mindfulness, and psychotherapeutic reiki.
You already know yourself very well. And because of this- You are looking for a different kind of therapy space. You are seeking a space in which you can find humor, grace, and wonder while navigating this human experience. One in which your intuition, spirituality, and inner knowing will be honored and used as a tool to transform your lived experience. A space where context matters and is used to create new perspectives and deeper understanding. A space to unpack your stories, unravel your deepest beliefs, and become friends (yes… I said friends) with your inner shadowy parts.

Finding and navigating the path to recovery from addiction presents one of the more difficult, yet meaningful journeys the human spirit can take. This transformation, luckily, is something that no person ever has to do alone. Throughout the years of my personal recovery, I've developed a deep passion for connecting with others and human nature as it relates to feeling less alone in the world. Something I believe to be true is the idea that everything in our life connects. Through constellating these connections, an image emerges that which we can learn from.

My clients most often find fresh perspective, new language, useful insight and direction to further develop their efforts and themselves. I’m not easily overwhelmed by strong feelings or complex issues, and I don’t judge.

No previous artistic skill necessary! I lead with a creativity-focused, gentle and firm integrative approach to therapy.
I am specifically inclined to work with folks who are curious about using the creative process to heal, who are LGBTQ+, who are interested in exploring new ways to find or relocate their intuitive voice to reconstruct and tell their story, and who are in recovery from substance use, imposter syndrome, or wounded childhoods.Compiling words together to form accurate depictions of personal narratives attached to life experiences can feel extremely daunting in talk therapy alone. With the invitation of artmaking, movement, metaphor, sound and play, exploring creativity can provide non-threatening means to access empowerment and healing.

I take an experiential, integrative approach drawing from my extensive trainings & lived experience in mindfulness, somatic + nervous system based therapies, attachment theory and psychodynamic approaches.
None of us are immune to life's challenges and we also don't come with instructions on how to navigate these. We often carry our past experiences and stress without realizing it— to the point where we feel it not only emotionally, but also in our physical bodies. Research confirms the mind and body aren’t so separate after all, but more of an interdependent unit greatly influencing one another. Past traumas, anxiety, depression, feeling stuck, chronic illness, difficult life transition, caught in the cycles of shame + self criticism; these are all labels and struggles many of us identify with at some point, but they don't define us.

I believe every person has the right to feel seen, valued, and heard. I provide a safe space for my clients. A space where there is no judgement; where over time, when trust is built within the therapeutic relationship, the client will bring their most authentic self into session. I use an integrative approach, although my roots lay in modern psychoanalysis and in attachment framework. Having healthy relationships, specifically with ourselves is challenging! Relationships are vital to the emotional and mental health of all human beings especially the relationship with the self, as I believe it holds both the wound and the cure.

You are tired of feeling so overwhelmed and insecure. You look around and wonder how people seem to be handling things so differently than you are. You may feel too sensitive, tender, or hyperaware in your relationships, at work or school, or when taking in the state of the world. It is challenging to make choices, really feel like yourself, connect with others, or just get a break. You keep trying to fix things with varied success but keep feeling like you are hitting walls. However, you are ready to give yourself a little attention and to see if you can respond to life in new ways to feel more alive, loved, and free.

Integrative Therapists
What is integrative therapy?
Integrative therapy is a type of therapy that combines ideas and techniques from different therapeutic approaches depending on the needs of the individual client. By merging elements of different treatments, an integrative therapist aims to offer a more flexible approach than those who practice just one type of therapy.
How does integrative therapy work?
Integrative therapy approaches a client’s mental, physical, and emotional health in a holistic way to discover the sources of their unhealthy behavior patterns or other challenges and considers the approach most likely to lead to improvement. Among the techniques an integrative therapist may practice are cognitive-behavioral therapy, dialectical behavior therapy, EMDR, mindfulness, art or music therapy, psychodynamic therapy, breathwork, family systems therapy, gestalt therapy, and trauma-informed therapy. An integrative therapist regularly evaluates the client’s progress and is prepared to pivot to a different approach if progress stalls.
How long does integrative therapy last?
As with most forms of talk therapy, there is no set duration or end point for integrative therapy; people who find they are making progress typically continue until they feel they’ve addressed the issues that spurred them to seek treatment. New patients should understand that it may take some time for a therapist to land on a treatment approach that best meets their needs, but once they do, they should expect sessions to extend for a number of months, typically including at least 12 sessions.
How effective is integrative therapy?
There are hundreds of types of talk therapy, and research shows that while they vary in form, goals, and frequency, many if not all can produce similarly successful outcomes. But a single approach does not always deliver the greatest, or speediest, benefit, and so even therapists primarily trained in one model will use tools, language, techniques, or exercises from others to shape an effective treatment plan.
