My Approach
Some of the concerns and issues I work with regularly include:
* Substance use and abuse
* Anxiety and stress management
* Depression, sadness, hopelessness
* Shame, guilt, self-worth
* Reproductive mental health
* Psychedelic preparation and integration
​
Having a background as a doula and yoga teacher means I tend to incorporate mindfulness based interventions, as well as physical or somatic components into our work together. I will always work from an evidence based practice, conducting extensive research and engaging in training before implementing skills into our work together. If there is a specific modality of therapy that you're interested in, or your presenting concern is not listed above, please email me or set up a phone consultation and we can talk further about how to best match your needs.
​
Post-graduate trainings have included:
Motivational Interviewing
ADHD: Moving Beyond Medication
Art based therapies: Process Not Perfection
Mindfulness based CBT (Mi-CBT)
