Who I Am

I am a licensed professional counselor and a trained yoga therapist. I am knowledgeable in and use a variety of practices that contribute to mental and physical health and wellness. I use neuro-science, to understand how the brain and the nervous system work and how my clients can work toward retraining their brains and nervous systems. I utilize the processes behind planning for , creating, and maintaining habits of change. I am trained in Motivational Interviewing which helps clients move toward change, as well as cognitive therapies to help with thinking patterns. I am a yoga therapist. I know powerful and proven way to teach your mind and body to work together to create a happy, healthy life through breathwork, mindfulness, body awareness, and relaxation.

My Philosophy on Change

If you are feeling anxiety, depression or stress, then your brain and your body have created patterns that aren't working for you. Talk therapy provides insight, but is not enough to change these patterns. I will guide you with processes that repair the brain/body relationship. These processes will be created as a good fit for you and will include skills and actions you can do yourself -possibly including, but not limited to: breathing techniques, relaxation, cognitive techniques, and meditation. These techniques have clinical research behind them. I will teach you about the brain and body patterns, so you can actively create changes that last. I have developed a strategy of exploring and changing thought patterns and behavioral habits that I will teach you. You will leave individual sessions and/or group sessions with a plan for skills to practice for lasting changes that support the life you want to live.
