Individual PSYCHOTherapy and INtegrative Wellness Coaching

Ready to make some positive life changes?  In psychotherapy, I'll help you do three things: explore how your problems developed (to prevent repetition), identify the changes you would like to make, and then determine how to put those changes into action.  I take a very active, engaged, and supportive approach, because I believe that strong collaboration is an important agent of change.  As I work collaboratively with my clients using this "insight and action" approach, they frequently report that they feel happier, more peaceful, and more empowered.  

Are you ready to ditch diet culture, yo-yo dieting, and body shame?  In integrative wellness coaching, I'll help you heal your relationship with food and your body.  Using the principles of intuitive eating as a guide, you'll learn to let go of diets/diet culture and re-learn how to trust your body's innate wisdom around food and movement.  You'll learn to honor your hunger and fullness; enjoy all foods without guilt; nourish your body, mind, and spirit; and exercise joyfully.  My clients frequently report that through coaching, they experience empowerment, "food freedom," improved body image, and better overall health.

I offer individual therapy and wellness coaching for individuals aged 16 and older.  My fee is $150 per 60 minute session of individual therapy.  I offer three wellness coaching packages:  three sessions for $450,  six sessions for $780, or 12 sessions for $1200.  Wellness Coaching includes one weekly session and email support throughout the week.  

While I am currently not an in-network provider for health insurance companies, I will gladly assist you in seeking out-of-network benefits.

Need a speaker for an upcoming event for your company, church, club, or support group?  Let me help you out!  I truly enjoy going into the community and providing education on mental health-related topics.  My community outreach programs include:

• Make Peace with Food and Your Body Through Intuitive Eating
• Meditation as Medicine:  Using Meditation and Conscious Relaxation to Live Your Healthiest Life
• Mental Health Question and Answer Session

I will also gladly create a community education program tailored to your organization's needs.  Cost is negotiable. 

I was fortunate to receive exceptional psychotherapy training at Georgetown University, George Washington University, George Mason University, and the University of Delaware; and earned my Ph.D. in clinical psychology with honors in 2003.  Additionally, I earned an Integrative Wellness Coaching certification through the Integrative Wellness Academy in 2017.  I have been practicing for nearly twenty years and have practiced in multiple settings including college and university counseling centers, community mental health centers, and private practices.
