About Me

My Best Assets as a Therapist

• The balance I strike between my innately analytical mind and the more right-brained intuitive capabilities that I’ve cultivated through trainings over the years. 

• My highly sensitive and empathic nature.

• My personal experience and lessons learned while struggling to heal a multitude of chronic health problems that started in my mid-20’s.
  

My Holistic Lens

My interest in the mindbody connection began in undergrad while studying Biopsychology. It then became especially relevant as I suffered with many hard-to-diagnose health problems while earning my Masters degree. I’ve focused much of my post grad professional trainings on how to heal using a mindbody approach. And I’ve spent more than two decades learning through living — with success!

I have wide knowledge & training in:

• spirituality & suffering

• autoimmune conditions & tick-borne infections

• nutrition & natural approaches to healing

• the effects of chronic stress on the body & stress-relieving techniques

• energy medicine principles and methods
  

My Credentials & Experience

I have been practicing as a Licensed Clinical Mental Health Counselor (LCMHC) since 2003. I earned a BS from Tufts University in Biopsychology and an MA in Counseling Psychology with a specialization in Professional Counseling and holistic emphasis at Lesley University. I am a member of the American Mental Health Counselors Association  (AMHCA) and the Association for Comprehensive Energy Psychology (ACEP). I am licensed in NH (#665) and I have permission to treat clients in FL as well. (See https://flhealthsource.gov/telehealth/ for details on FL telemental health.)

Prior to being in private practice, my counseling experience includes volunteering at a domestic violence shelter, interning at a college counseling center, and working with two different residential programs that helped those recovering from involvement in high-control, destructive religious groups.
