    About

    I believe that we all have an inherent capacity for growth & change. It is only our insecurities that prevent us from achieving our optimal potential. Within a collaborative therapeutic space, I strive to create a sanctuary of compassion & safety. This allows clients to begin their journey of self-discovery as they work to overcome personal and societal obstacles. I focus on providing more targeted & individualized care using AF-EMDR; Somatic Experiencing; DBT; Psychodrama; Parts Work, & Family Systems modalities. As a prior professional ballet dancer, I understand the importance of creating balance by nurturing the “whole self." I emphasize the mind-body-spirit connection to promote healing at a neurobiological level by fostering and respecting a person’s own inner resources and wisdom. I encourage the development of skills “in action” designed to increase self-awareness and to improve one’s ability to tolerate, embrace, and respond to experiences as they are in any given moment.
