What inspires you about this work?
One of the most inspiring aspects of my work as a therapist is witnessing the transformation of the people I work with as they grow into confident, whole, and grounded individuals. Through their experiences in therapy, they begin to make different, empowering choices in their lives. Additionally, I love the genuine, deep connections that develop from working with the same clients over time.
Who are you passionate about working with?
I am passionate about supporting women who are feeling the effects of stress on their bodies, whether it's through chronic pain, tension, or other physical symptoms. Many of the women I work with are navigating significant life transitions, such as starting or ending a relationship, or embracing the challenges of motherhood. I specialize in helping women reconnect with their bodies and find balance through a holistic approach to health and well-being.
Training & Education…
What is your approach to therapy?
I am a holistic therapist who takes an experiential approach to therapy. I believe that through focusing on the wisdom of the body and emotions, clients have all the resources they need to heal. My goal is to build a genuine connection with you that serves as a vehicle for self-understanding, self-reflection, and change. I will tailor your therapy to meet your unique needs.
What education and trainings have you completed?
I earned my Ph.D. in clinical psychology from Nova Southeastern University. My dissertation was focused on psychological well-being and body image issues. I was primarily trained in medical settings focusing on health anxiety, coping with cancer diagnoses and grief, and relationships as well as women’s health concerns, such as postpartum.
I was originally trained in Cognitive Behavior Therapy, Cognitive Processing Therapy for trauma, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy. Lately, I have been more focused on experiential therapies like Emotion Focused Therapy for individuals and couples, Somatic Experiencing, and Internal Family Systems Therapy.
I also hold additional certifications, such as a mindfulness facilitator through training at the West LA VA and a 200-hour yoga teaching certification.
