Somatic Therapists in Providence, RI

Your relationship with food and your body has taken over your life, and you’re tired of feeling overwhelmed, disconnected, and alone. You may be fed up with the shame, tired of having no control, or sick of feeling isolated. You might not even remember a time things didn’t feel this way. But one thing is for sure: you’re ready for some relief. You’re ready to leave the eating disorder behind. You want to feel confident and in control of your emotions. Most of all, you’re ready to reconnect with yourself.

*** I am not taking on new clients currently, please be in touch if you are interested in being placed on a waitlist. I am holding group sessions in September, please see below.** Often times change is met with resistance, and as a therapist, I provide a supportive role in assisting others to recognize and overcome blocks, fear and distraction. Supporting healing in adolescents and adults whom wish to become their best selves, is fostered by a relationship built upon trust, compassion and open communication. I use a variety of holistic modalities, including mindfulness, expressive arts, DBT, and EMDR.

Do you feel invisible? No one’s listening to you? Uncertain of your future or direction to take? Are you ready to change, but do not know where to start? Do you feel alone? Let’s have a conversation and see if we can work together in identifying issues then create a plan to improve quality of life.

I am an educational therapist in private practice serving the lifespan regarding challenges associated with learning, transition, vocation, addictions, depression, anxiety, grief & loss, relationships, spirituality, symptomology management, school culture and more.

In over a decade of practicing, I've discovered the effectiveness of therapy lies in providing individuals with the necessary time and secure connection to explore beliefs and relationships with self and other. We can reshape detrimental self-perceptions and change our relationship with our emotions. Perhaps you're caught in cycles of behavior that evoke feelings of inadequacy or guilt. Maybe you feel stagnant, unheard, or struggle to express your needs. Here, you'll find a supportive, inclusive setting where you can connect, feel truly seen, and explore without judgment.

Our life experiences shape how we live, how we love, and how we make sense of the world. With support, you can develop more control in your life as well as your interactions with loved ones and with the world.

I'm a holistic therapist specializing in anxiety, transitions and trauma. Do you have anxiety? Difficulty controlling worry? Racing thoughts? When the nervous system gets stuck in fight/flight/freeze/fawn it can trigger anxiety, avoidance, dissociation, dysregulation or anger. You may feel 'stuck.' You may have the urge to put the needs of others before your own needs. You may be constantly on the go and unable to relax. You may have trouble setting boundaries. You may over-use substances, food or social media. You may struggle to live authentically in harmony with your core values. Over time you may develop symptoms of depression.

NOW Accepting NEW Clients: At the heart of my practice is a client-centered philosophy that respects the individual. I strive to create a safe, non-judgmental space where clients feel heard. My approach to therapy is grounded in the principles of behavioral psychotherapy, which emphasizes the connection between thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. I believe that understanding and altering maladaptive behavior patterns can lead to significant improvements in emotional well-being and life satisfaction. I utilize a range of therapeutic modalities, including CBT, DBT, and ACT, tailoring my methods to meet the unique needs of each client.

Awakening can be simple, such as when you start noticing that you haven't been present to your loved ones.

We all benefit from a place where we can go to get wisdom, guidance, and support for our transformation, a place that nourishes and nurtures our soul and spirit. There are times in our lives when this becomes an imperative, when we are looking to breakthrough a major block or navigate an intensive period of transformation and want to dive deep beyond what we access in our everyday. Other times we are simply inspired by some inner calling to reach towards something more. Learning how to engage in this courageous work is the key to creating what we want and loving what we have. This is what I offer.
