Main Street Mindbody Psychotherapy
I support individual adults and adolescents over the age of 16 who are stuck or struggling to resolve issues that are keeping them from a joyful, rewarding life. I have received education and training in a holistic, strengths-based, attachment and trauma-informed practice with a focus on bridging western evidence-based neuroscience with ancient, traditional ways of healing. My work is inspired by so many theories, experiences and practitioners. I have basic training in EMDR (Eye Movement and Desensitization Reprocessing) and I am trained in Level 1 and Level 2 of DBR (Deep Brain Reorienting). My work is also informed by parts work and Internal Family Systems., , I am particularly interested in the connection between the mind and body with respect to supporting individuals with anxiety, depression, chronic pain & illness and life transitions. I primarily use trauma therapy approaches like EMDR and DBR in addition to parts work to support my clients.
