Introduction

I am an LMHC with significant experience working with clients struggling with anxiety, perfectionism, OCD, and eating/body image related issues. My experience with school adjustment counseling helped me integrate Special Education knowledge into a solutions-focused brief therapy approach with students struggling with school refusal/avoidance, anxiety, and peer conflict. Additionally I have training in using meaningful projective tools within the therapeutic space such as Tarot cards and/or Astrological information. My approach integrates Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Dialectical Behavioral Therapy (DBT) within a multicultural family systems framework. Moreover, Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP) is a valuable and empowering technique when working with anxiety, OCD, perfectionism, and body image/eating struggles. As a clinician with ADHD, I am highly aware of potential intersection with my clients that might require holistic support. This includes offering additional support with Executive Functioning coaching and Parent Coaching, provide Tarot-integrated sessions when appropriate, and using other esoteric interventions that clients might find spiritually meaningful. My ultimate goal is to support clients through transitional phases with increased insight and skill development to find success in whatever ways are meaningful to them.
