In Person Therapists in Poughkeepsie, NY
Discussing the challenges you've been through is a vulnerable place, but also one that can be full of growth and clarity. I work with children, teens, and adults dealing with some of life's big transitions. I utilize an integrative approach to create a safe, trauma informed space to build regulation skills, communication skills, and process trauma. I have a background in working with adult survivors of domestic violence and sexual assault, college students, and children in foster care birth to 21. Trauma and transitions are each taxing in their own profound ways, but each can lead to change. I'm here to hold that space with you.

At times, life can feel like one big transition. Right when you overcome one challenge, another always seems to pops up. It can feel overwhelming to handle it all, whether you are a stay at home mom in the throughs of toddlerhood or a homeschool mom trying to navigate health challenges for your family members or a career driven mom trying to balance it all. The one thing I’ve learned over the years is that if you aren’t taking care of yourself physically (your health), spiritually (having a faith practice), and relationally (making time for in person connections), life can feel a whole lot more challenging than it should.

Transitioning from four years as a school counselor to pursuing my master's in mental health counseling, I bring a wealth of experience in development and psychology. I believe in the innate capacity of every individual to overcome challenges and meet goals with the right guidance. While my background lies with adolescence and teens, I'm eager to extend my support to adults as well. With a client-centered approach, I create safe spaces for exploration and tailor interventions to meet unique needs.

You worry all the time about being judged by other people. You feel disconnected from your body and, at the same time, feel like it’s all you think about. You question what you say, how your body looks, if you’re doing things “right,” and there are so many times where your mind feels like it’s on a hamster wheel that you can’t stop. You feel on edge all day and sometimes even feel like you may be having a heart attack. You don’t feel like you fit in anywhere. You’ve been made fun of before for so many different parts of who you are. You’ve been called weird or have been misunderstood at work, in your family, and even in some of your dating relationships. You’ve struggled to find someone who feels like a good fit romantically, and you’re worried there’s something wrong with you. You want to feel more connected to yourself again…
