At A Mindful Talk Health Services, our goal is to support everyone of our clients to heal, while equipping them with tools so that they can regulate and care for themselves. We love to help people connect to their own light and purpose. We have a lot of experience working with issues related to trauma, depression, anxiety, social phobias, eating disorders, academic/test anxiety, and sexual abuse among others.

I work with a variety of individuals from adolescence through adults. We may be a good fit if you; have experienced trauma, are a young adult struggling with the quarter life crisis, are experiencing an unhealthy relationship(s) or struggling to set boundaries, are a parent seeking support and education, are an adult with ADHD, are an over thinker/perfectionist, have anxiety, are going through a divorce/separation or break up, or just want to learn to manage emotional discomfort with more ease.

I am a Board Certified Dance/Movement Therapist. I believe that bringing awareness to the body during each session will help you feel more grounded and in touch with your therapy journey. I became a Dance/Movement Therapist because movement always made me feel better. I danced and moved throughout my own life experiences and I want to bring that feeling to others. I consider myself to be a therapist who is open, empathetic, organized, and reliable.

As you progress you strive for more out of life, yet are unsure how to get to where you wish to be. I will support you on your journey as we explore together what your needs are, long term/short term perceived goals and best practices in fulfilling such. I use the therapeutic process to assist in empowering my clients so that you come to realize and acknowledge the wealth of inner resources you have within and without, to build on your strengths and gain confidence to accept and create your personal story.

You may find yourself feeling sad, anxious, lonely, stressed, or defeated. Therapy is a process in which you can freely talk without judgement and get the support and strength you need, so that you may begin to move, grow, and find the peace and stability you once felt.
