ABOUT

20240522_115102.jpg

I support individuals in the process of cultivating wellness and balance.  Informed by modern neuroscience, which illuminates the mind-body connection, I support clients in both mental therapy and body-based techniques.  Because wellness is holistic, I believe it is important to work with the many components that comprise an individual, such as physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual (if desired).  I myself have had transformative experiences in therapeutic settings and was inspired to weave my experience and education into the healing, empowerment, and fulfillment of others.  I approach therapy collaboratively, co-creating therapy goals, tools, and techniques.  I believe each individual has wonderful gifts and unique challenges and the therapeutic process should be informed and shaped in accordance.  With my Master’s in Social Work from Fordham University, and 5 years of professional social work practice, I acknowledge the impact our social systems have on individual wellness, and apply a social justice lens to my practice.

I have served parents, teens, and families for over 5 years as a social worker.  Working in Trauma Informed Care for almost a year, addiction recovery for over a year, and with multicultural communities for 3 years, I have supported folks in diverse challenges, life stages, and with many faiths and cultures.  I am inspired by the growth and resolution in the therapuetic journey.

Supporting Emotional Wellness with a Holistic Approach

STRESS or ANXIETY

Somatic therapuetic techniques such as breathing can support individuals through learning about the nervous system and how to regulate emotions and physical activation.  Therapy goal setting can also support in reduction of distress from lifestyle and environmental stressors.

PHYSICAL SYMPTOMS

Modern science shows how mental health and phsycial health are interconnected.   Mental health supports, such as cognitive and somatic therapies, can improve phsycial outcomes.  Working holisitcally alongside medical doctors can improve emotional wellness.  Additionaly, navigating environmental factors, such as Social Determinants of Health, can reduce inequities from systemic factors.

DEPRESSION or TRAUMA

Tools from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and somatic experiencing can support in processing past wounds, reframing thoughts and beliefs to match the present, and sourcing from client interests, relationships, and strengths to resetablish life vitality.  

IDENTITY or LIFE TRANSITION

For folks seeking meaning or belonging, exploring elements of identify can bring fulfillment where there are missing pieces.   I welcome clients to bring beliefs or explorations of culture, spirituality, or nature into their therapy journey with me.

Life also can bring big changes that take time and attention to adjust to. Tending self and relationships during transitions can help coping during changes and adjustment into a new normal.
