Integrative Psychotherapy

My therapeutic approach is integrative, transformative, emotion-focused, and relational using the most advanced evidence based therapeutic techniques. I offer a range of therapeutic modalities to provide each client with a rich set of resources for healing. Cutting edge research in the field of neuroscience and interpersonal neurobiology affirm that the integration of the modalities that I apply in my practice build resilience and open new dimensions for healing. Resilience is not a trait that you either have or do not have; it is a set of strategies that can be learned and practiced.

Most therapeutic approaches leave the body out of the equation. I believe that mind body integration is crucial for the healing process and therefore I treat the whole person integrating all parts of the authentic self. I specialize in applying an integrative-holistic therapeutic framework to psychotherapy and mental health. It facilitates deep and meaningful therapeutic process leading to lasting results in significantly less time

With extensive training in a wide range of cutting-edge trauma treatment modalities, I seamlessly integrate talk therapy with somatic, relational, attachment-based, and emotion-focused psychotherapy techniques to tailor my approach to the unique needs of each patient. Trauma is a highly individualized experience, often residing in non-verbal areas of the brain that traditional talk therapy alone may not effectively access. In my treatment approach, I consider the entirety of the patient's being, addressing the entire person to tap into areas where trauma is stored. This process unlocks deeply rooted and pervasive wounds often left behind by complex trauma. My integrative method goes beyond mere symptom reduction, striving for transformative healing that nurtures post-traumatic growth. This approach facilitates profound connections with all aspects of the self, allowing the patient to reclaim their core self, ultimately leading to post-traumatic growth. What sets this approach apart is its unique ability to intervene directly by forging new neural pathways and behaviors. This empowers patients to develop alternative ways of responding to their environment, freeing them from the constraints of past habits and facilitating their journey towards healing and growth.

Tailoring treatment modalities to the specific type of trauma and the current stage in the recovery process is crucial. This approach allows for a more personalized intervention, catering to individual needs, and facilitating more effective healing within a shorter timeframe.

I integrate a range of somatic-focused psychotherapy interventions to comprehensively address the needs of adolescents and young adults seeking recovery from eating disorders. My approach places a strong emphasis on empowering individuals with essential life skills while simultaneously addressing core issues within the emotional, cognitive, relational, behavioral, and social domains. Furthermore, I believe in the importance of involving healthy family dynamics to bolster and align with the therapeutic goals.
