Practice
Name: Holistic Wellness Practice
DescriptionI am an experienced and compassionate psychotherapist specializing in Anxiety, Stress Management, Trauma Recovery, Caregiver Support, and Career and Life Coaching. I am a Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP), a Certified Holistic Life, Career, and Executive Coach, and I am currently completing my training and certification as a Meditation and Mindfulness Teacher. *** I strive to empower clients to make positive changes not only within themselves, but in their families, and communities as well. I believe compassion, collaboration, and a non-judgmental stance are the cornerstones of a successful therapeutic relationship, and I bring that mindset into each session. *** I focus primarily on mindfulness-based and evidence-based treatment approaches. I have specialized, advanced training in Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT), Mindful Self-Compassion (MSC), Restorative Retelling (traumatic loss and grief), Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), Trauma-informed therapeutic interventions, Somatic-based interventions, and Bilateral Stimulation. *** I also utilize evidence-based tools and techniques from a variety of additional modalities including Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction (MBSR), Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT), Strengths-based Therapy, and Exposure Therapy. *** I spent many years in the non-profit sector counseling individuals and families who have been impacted by grief, anxiety, depression, transitions, caregiving responsibilities, chronic illness, and trauma. I have also worked as a primary therapist and group therapist in an intensive outpatient program, as a primary therapist for parents working towards reunification through the Department of Family and Children’s Services, and as a hospital social worker. *** Prior to moving full-time into private practice, I worked for more than two decades in corporate management and leadership roles, using my social services experience and business skills to foster growth and success in the individuals around me. *** I believe that the answer to difficult challenges is not to push away or deny our thoughts and feelings, but to mindfully accept their presence and learn to change the way we relate to them. We achieve this by actively moving in a direction that aligns with our values and allows us to focus on what matters most to us.
