"My belief is that a truly optimum healing process relies on the awareness of the mental, physical, emotional and spiritual aspects of our journey. Each has to be addressed and applied to our work together. With direction, encouragement, and support in a nurturing environment, my interdisciplinary approach provides each individual with a deeper sense of “Self.” We can explore these aspects of healing through Traditional Psychotherapy, Internal Family Systems, Body-Centered Psychotherapy and/or different forms of Body work. We will discuss which integrative approach fits for you. My vision for you is a true and long lasting healing process."
