Great to meet you!

I developed The Toolbox Approach to healing that comes from over 35 years of personal and professional experience. My practice is called "Holding Space Concierge Therapies". I want individuals to feel free from a fixing mindset. I help people discover the stages and tools for inner work. I am a Level 2 Certified Clinical Trauma Professional (CCTP) and licensed as a Mental Health Counselor in New York (LMHC) and have my Certification in Integrative Mental Health and additional specializations.

A bit about my approach to therapy

My practice is called Holding Space. It is offered by ENYA, Everyone Needs You Always, LLC. I go beyond therapy if you need more. I connect you with healing events and medical practitioners that are integrative. My concept is one that offers Concierge Trauma services. We are all holding on to old things even if you don't identify as holding trauma. These services help you decide what can work to unblock, reprocess, heal and relate. Your body health can also be incorporated.

What you can expect from our first session

We spend several sessions learning each other and discover what would work best. Healing trauma requires thinking outside the box of diagnosis and treatment. It requires two experts in a room; therapist and "patient", which are really two people "Holding Space" for the story that is you becoming you. Understanding the part of your experience that have been unprocessed and only partially worked through is key to selecting what modes of services from the menu will work best.
