Professional Background
LicensurePennsylvania, Licensed Psychologist, PS019110North Carolina, Licensed Psychologist, 6387
Work HistoryFor over a decade, I've provided individual and group therapy for a wide range of issues. I offer my services to people who reside anywhere in North Carolina or Pennsylvania. I specialize in working with people who struggle with self-esteem/self-image issues, grief, and trauma. As a holistic therapist, I don’t just focus on treating symptoms or replacing behaviors. I work with body, spirit, heart, and gut, offering a space where you can step into a transformed relationship with yourself. I go underneath strategies and tools to help you develop inner resources, listen to your body and nervous system, let go of what no longer serves you, and bring new energy and clarity to your most important connections. The way I practice is collaborative, and my style is informal and at ease. I aim to create a space where you can relax enough to become more of who you are, rather than feeling like we are analyzing or troubleshooting you. Therapy with me is a playground, not a boot camp. We’re not in this to “fix” you. We are supporting you to befriend yourself at the most profound level possible. My approach is a fusion of many therapeutic styles. My primary clinical influences are Gestalt therapy, Buddhist/mindfulness-based therapy, EMDR, and humanistic therapy. I have trained in many additional types of therapy and am always interested in your thoughts about what kind of approach feels most like home to you. We may be a good fit if you have a deep desire for growth and transformation and if you're willing to look, with honesty and compassion, at how you get in your own way. I work best with people who are willing to continue the work of therapy between sessions, by practicing present-focused awareness and experimenting with gentler, more curious responses to their own feelings, thoughts, and body sensations.
