WHAT EXACTLY DO I DO?
Speciality areas of practice:
|
MINDDialectical Behavior Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Emotional Regulation, Interpersonal Skills, Communication Skills, and Talk Therapy. These are modalities that teach us how to change our thoughts, perceptions, ideas, and beliefs so that we may experience and interact with the world in a more effective way. Challenge the current stories you tell yourself and learn how to write new ones.
|
BODYEye Movement Desensitization Reprocessing (EMDR), IFS, Parts Work, Brainspotting, and Mindfulness-Based Stress Reduction. Our bodies and our minds are interconnected. They effect each other in a reciprocal relationship. Our bodies hold and store our traumatic memories and so sometimes we need to use modalities that start with the body as opposed to the conscious mind.

SPIRIT
I am currently pursuing a PhD in transpersonal psychology. I believe that individualized spirituality has an important yet often overlooked place in the therapeutic context. One way to connect with something larger than self is through creative self-expression and cultivating imagination and embodied experience. I am also a supporter and advocate for the use of plant-based medicine and psychedelic-assisted psychotherapy.
