About Me

My Approach

I believe in the power of therapy to help individuals move from surviving to thriving. Many of the issues I enjoy tackling the most are ones I’ve experienced myself, including anxiety, workaholism, burnout, and substance abuse. I am a career changer with a background in corporate marketing, so I uniquely understand how stressful it can be trying to balance work and personal life.

Research shows the single most important factor in predicting positive therapy outcomes is the relationship between client and therapist. My approach includes warmth, humor, and a holistic look at your goals and treatment. But it will always be tailored to the unique needs of YOU.

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) passionate about helping others lead life to the fullest, and fully as themselves. I believe the best work comes out of the strongest relationships, including our relationship with self. I practice holistic psychotherapy, allowing integration of mind, body, and spirit across our work together.

Experience

Most recently I worked with a wide range of adults in outpatient therapy at Bridge Counseling & Wellness in Louisville, Kentucky. Bridge is unique in its holistic approach to treatment of mental health issues, and its offering of complementary wellness practices such as yoga and meditation.

Prior to that, I worked at Mountainside Treatment Center in Chappaqua, New York, and New York Center for Living in New York City, where I provided Intensive Outpatient (IOP) treatment for substance abuse and co-occurring mental health conditions, like anxiety and depression. In both settings, treatment was based on the belief that substance abuse is a symptom of deeper issues, and treating the whole person and underlying causes leads to lasting freedom.

Education

I obtained my Masters in Social work from New York University (NYU).

I am also certified as a Human Potential Coach (HPC) and Integrated Mental Health Professional (IMPH). Both these certifications allow me to apply evidence-based holistic practices in treating the mind, body, and spirit in our work together.
