My approaches to therapy

  • Relational therapy is a therapeutic approach that focuses on the importance of relationships in shaping a person’s emotional well-being and sense of self. It explores how past and present relationships influence thoughts, behaviors, and emotional patterns, helping clients develop healthier, more fulfilling connections. By examining relational dynamics, this therapy encourages self-awareness, emotional growth, and the ability to build stronger, more supportive relationships in all areas of life.

  • Somatic Experiencing therapy focuses on healing trauma by addressing how it is stored in the body. It helps individuals release tension, process emotions, and restore nervous system regulation through body awareness and gentle movement. By working with physical sensations rather than just thoughts, this approach allows for deeper healing and resilience. It is especially effective for trauma, stress, and anxiety, helping individuals feel more grounded and connected to their bodies.

  • Holistic therapy takes a whole-person approach to healing, addressing the mind, body, and spirit rather than just symptoms. It integrates techniques like talk therapy, mindfulness, breathwork, and movement to promote balance and well-being. By strengthening the mind-body connection, it helps reduce stress, uncover root causes of emotional struggles, and encourage long-term healing. This approach empowers individuals to cultivate self-awareness, resilience, and a more fulfilling life.

  • Sensorimotor therapy is a body-centered approach that helps process trauma by integrating physical sensations, movements, and emotions. It focuses on how the body holds trauma and uses mindfulness and movement to release stored tension and restore balance. It helps you understand how trauma manifests in your body and how to lessen your physical response. By working beyond just talk therapy, this approach helps individuals develop greater self-awareness, emotional regulation, and resilience. It is especially effective for trauma, PTSD, and attachment issues, promoting deep healing through the mind-body connection.

  • We now understand more than ever about the brain's incredible capacity to heal and adapt after trauma. This isn't just about individual neurobiology; it recognizes that our brains are shaped by our experiences within broader social, cultural, and historical contexts. I aim to move beyond individualistic models of healing to recognize the interconnectedness of our experiences and the importance of culturally relevant and liberatory practices.

  • Parts Work, often associated with Internal Family Systems (IFS), helps individuals explore and integrate different aspects of themselves, known as "parts." It recognizes that we all have inner parts that hold different emotions, beliefs, and roles, often shaped by past experiences. By fostering self-awareness and compassion, this approach helps individuals heal wounded parts, reduce inner conflict, and develop a stronger sense of self. It is especially effective for trauma, anxiety, and self-sabotaging patterns, promoting deep emotional healing and balance.

  • Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR) is a structured therapy that helps individuals process and heal from trauma by using guided eye movements or other forms of bilateral stimulation. This approach allows the brain to reprocess distressing memories, reducing their emotional intensity and helping individuals develop healthier beliefs. EMDR is especially effective for PTSD, anxiety, and other trauma-related conditions, promoting deep healing without requiring extensive verbal processing.

  • I choose to not take insurance to prioritize client confidentiality and autonomy. Insurance companies require access to private mental health information, including diagnoses and treatment details, which can compromise privacy and limit care options. By operating outside this system, I ensure that our work remains confidential and tailored to your needs—not dictated by insurance policies. Additionally, I recognize that the current healthcare system often creates more barriers than solutions, and by removing myself from it, I can provide care that is ethical, client-centered, and free from unnecessary restrictions.

    I’m happy to provide “Superbills” for insurance reimbursement upon request. To explore your options, I recommend checking with your insurance provider about out-of-network mental health coverage. These are essentially statements for reimbursement from your insurance if you have it, and will vary from plan to plan.

  • Your journey to healing is unique. Step into a therapy space that acknowledges and celebrates the intersectionality of your identities. In our individual therapy sessions, I will create a secure and supportive space to explore your experiences, reclaim your narrative, and connect with your inner wisdom. Using a decolonial framework, I honor your cultural context and work together to dismantle internalized oppression, empowering you to build a future rooted in your authentic self.

  • Clinical Supervision offers a space for critical reflection and transformative growth, specifically designed to help you decolonize your informed practice.

Together, we'll develop strategies to dismantle internalized biases and create a more equitable and liberatory therapeutic approach.
