My Approach to Helping
Embodied Psychotherapy for Anxiety.

Do you frequently...
Feel disconnected from yourself and your life.
Experience a feeling of dread in the pit of your stomach.
Exhaust yourself with obsessive, worst-case scenario thinking...

Perhaps I can help.
As someone who recovered from a debilitating Anxiety Disorder in
my mid-thirties, I truly understand the shame and isolation that many
anxiety sufferers experience. This awareness informs my work, and
helps me create a safe, accepting therapeutic connection with you.

My approach combines traditional Psychodynamic and Cognitive work,
with Body-Oriented, Mindfulness-Based experiential therapies that can
help you get out of your head, calm your Anxiety, and discover more
flexible, creative solutions for your life.

Importance of the Client-Therapist Alliance

A safe and supportive Client-Therapist connection is the foundation of any effective therapeutic experience. My approach to this process is not as the director of the therapy, but as a someone who is accompanying you on your journey toward well-being. I do not provide answers... Instead, I support you in discovering your own.
