I am a Holistic Counselor with a Graduate Degree in Counseling Psychology. I recently relocated to Florida from San Francisco and my approach to therapy is based on the clinical experience I received while living in California. My specializations are in Mindfulness and Transpersonal Psychology, which basically emphasizes the power of our own internal wisdom. It also recognizes the interconnectedness of all things and the importance of re-connecting mind, body, and spirit in order to achieve true healing.

Clinical Experience

My clinical experience involves working with diverse populations around a broad spectrum of issues. I have counseled Individuals, Couples, and Families in private practice, as well as community-based agencies.  My experience also includes  working with clients in a residential treatment setting specializing in Chemical Dependency, Eating Disorders, and Trauma, as well as bereavement counseling in a  hospice setting, where I have helped clients make sense of their grief and loss.

I have facilitated Therapy Groups on the  following topics: Women’s Issues, Dreamwork, Grief/Loss, Body Image, and Mindful Recovery.

...As for my own journey, my curiosity for knowledge and life experiences have led me down many paths. Some have included painful lessons, while some have been enlivening and spiritual. What I have learned is that every dark night of the soul inevitably brings the light of dawn. In fact, it is often darkest right before the first light appears. In this concept lies tremendous hope; that freedom from suffering is always potentially just on the horizon.
