Hello

Therapeutic Approach

​As a therapist I am interested in empowering individuals and groups to learn skills that take them toward their personal values, that highlight their strengths and help them identify and work towards their goals. I am interested in topics such as maternal health, sexual health, sexual desire and function, gender and body dysphoria, substance use disorder, anxiety, depression and life transitions such as perimenopause. I draw clinical inspiration from behavioral interventions such as Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT).

I have a Bachelor's degree in Fine Art and have over 15 years of professional experience in the art and music industries, as well as being trained as an E-RYT 500 registered yoga teacher (RYT) with Yoga Alliance. I have extensively explored the modality of trauma informed yoga over the last 10 years by attending various trainings and working on teams that lead trauma-informed yoga trainings. I use these practices in my private yoga sessions and also in my daily life. In the community I teach chair yoga, a mindfulness-based botanical sketchbook art class and morning mindfulness classes at the Georgia Museum of Art. I enjoy connecting the practice of mindfulness to art making, music, movement, meditation, and therapeutic practices.
