My office is a calm space that emanates the colors of the seashore, my favorite place. Its also a place that many people consider safe, calming and restful. |
I remember as a child being moved by a book where a little girl received physical therapy for a disability that ultimately led her to thrive again and reclaim her childhood. I held onto that desire and pursued a medical degree in undergraduate school. While getting my degree in Biology I moved into the realm of nutrition and the power of eating well and using food as medicine. I then began a graduate program in nutrition but after a short amount of time realized that it wasn't quite the right place - I wanted to look at the issues underlying medical and eating issues. So it was a ten year journey that finally led me to beginning my masters in social work where I focused on clinical practice and eating issues/disorders. Since graduating I have continued my learning and education in studying the enneagram and integrating that into my practice. I have also been certified in EMDR to use with clients who have experienced trauma.
I work to create a safe environment where you can come and explore the layers of beliefs, behaviors, and memories and then move towards your true self. To experience greater freedom, we look at life patterns and work together to understand and name overwhelming struggles and unnoticed strengths. I work with a variety of clients who come in with relationship issues, symptoms of anxiety or depression, issues around eating and eating disorders, childhood and family problems, and a history of trauma.
I often use EMDR, body-centered therapies and the enneagram (an ancient personality tool) to work with eating disorders, trauma and anxiety. These techniques can be used with any client who finds themselves in a relationship or place in life they'd like to see change in.
I look at each client as a whole person with your own story that has led you to where you are today. When we look at current problems, it is always in the context of your story and all the parts of your life.
