About My Clients
Sometimes getting out of bed and facing the world is unbearable. You are expected to show up and give your best, but at times you feel like there is nothing left to give. You muster up the strength to get by and do it all over again the next day. Perhaps you are stuck in a rut and fear of everything prevents you from moving forward. Just the thought of taking any type of action, scares you and makes you retreat. I have been there. You are not alone. You are worthy of healing.
My Background and Approach
The tools that you will gain during your healing journey have been used and revised throughout my mental health career of over 20 years. All interventions are tailored to your specific needs and are modified as you progress or in times where you need a "tune-up." My specialty areas include treatment for anxiety, depression, trauma, perinatal mental health disorders, family systems disruptions, life transitions and grief. I use a collaborative approach, as I believe that you are the expert on your life. In this space, I meet you where you are and work with you to find practical solutions to your problems. My goal is to empower you to make future decisions that move you forward versus leaving you depleted and stagnant. I use your strengths to move you through areas in your life that seem impossible to overcome.
My Personal Beliefs and Interests
I know that hope is hard to find, so I am here to stand in the gap until you can hold it for yourself. I strive to think outside of the routine therapy box, and believe in using diverse, integrative and holistic approaches to healing, which incorporate traditional therapy techniques, as well as mindfulness, guided meditations, breathing techniques, progressive muscle relaxation, trauma-informed interventions, and basic “own your mess” and “stand in your truth” talks. I will mindfully challenge you to take risks throughout your healing journey, but will be with you every step as you work to be your best self. In my role as a healer, I also acknowledge that I am in the role of the healed. I learn as much from my clients as they learn from me. As a fellow human being, I have had my share of trials and grief, so grace is abundant in my practice. I am passionate about giving everyone a voice and hearing them to help meet their needs.
