Approach Description: As a therapist, I have developed a personal, holistic, and vibrational approach to psychotherapy that incorporates both traditional and alternative therapies. I believe in treating the whole person, not just the symptoms, and work to identify the root causes of mental health issues. My approach involves exploring the connection between the mind, body, and spirit to achieve balance and wellness. I incorporate various techniques such as mindfulness, meditation, visualization, as well as CBT, DBT, ACT, Narrative Therapy, and Motivational Interviewing to help my clients release blocked emotions and access their innate healing abilities. With my personalized approach, clients are empowered to heal themselves and achieve lasting change in their lives.

We are a small mental health private practice . Our approach extends beyond traditional methods to encompass a holistic and vibrational approach. I believe in treating the whole person - mind, body, and spirit - in order to achieve true healing and transformative growth. This means addressing not just symptoms, but underlying emotional, physical, and spiritual imbalances that may be contributing to distress. Utilizing a range of techniques, including talk therapy, mindfulness, energy work, and meditation, I aim to create a safe space where clients can explore and connect with their inner selves, release old patterns, and cultivate a sense of joy and purpose. Whether you're struggling with anxiety, depression, trauma, or simply seeking greater self-awareness and fulfillment, our goal is to help you find the resources within yourself to create positive, lasting change.
