Sometimes it is not enough to speak with a friend or a family member. You are not alone! When I started my therapy, it changed my life and now I want to help other people. My sessions are rooted in Integrative Psychotherapy which combines different therapeutic tools and provides for a flexible approach I can tailor to an individual's unique needs. I use range of methods and approaches to fit your personality, preferences, and situation with the intention that through this work, you will discover your true self and begin to find your own answers to life's many challenges. I offer an opportunity to reflect on issues that you are facing and explore how to proceed. I am interested in mindfulness and meditation as tools that encourage us to become aware of our experiences, thoughts and feelings. I bring playfulness and creativity into the therapy room by using sand trays , spirit guides, and dream work. I use intuitive and creative powers as methods of self-expression to make sense of that which is painful, to create personal meaning, and to enhance wellness. I bring these and other creative techniques into my practice to form a holistic plan for growth and healing. I am trauma informed therapist, I offer CBT treatment. My area of expertise includes anxiety, depression, low self esteem, addictions, relationships, sense of loss of meaning, health issues, employment issues , early life trauma, family dynamics.
