My Philosophy
A different kind of support: mental health + whole body wellness, together
Traditional talk therapy is incredibly valuable, but sometimes talking isn’t enough. It’s important to pay attention to the factors that influence how you feel every day in addition to your psychological and emotional patterns. Your mood, energy, patience, and resilience are not just “in your head.” They are deeply connected to your whole body.
That’s why my approach is holistic and personalized.
It’s possible in my work with clients to delve into…
- Mental health therapy to help you process overwhelm, resentment, identity shifts, and emotional reactivity
- Lifestyle & Identity Transitions to make sense of changes that come with midlife, motherhood, caregiving, relationships & career shifts.
- Nervous system regulation tools so you can respond instead of react—even in the hardest moments.
- Mind-Body Connections to explore how sleep, movement, nourishment & stress can influence emotional wellbing.
- Compassionate, real-life strategies that actually work in the middle of a busy, demanding life
Imagine…
- You feel calmer and less reactive—even when your life is full
- You have more patience with your partner and don’t spiral into guilt after nagging or even raging
- Your energy is steadier, you’re not dragging yourself through the day
- You feel more like you again—grounded, clear, and in control
- You’re showing up for your life without losing yourself in the process
- Your mind feels more clear & you have energy to get back to the activities you once enjoyed
As a Clinical Social Worker (LICSW) and Nutritional Therapy Practitioner (NTP) I am trained in therapeutic techniques like Motivational Interviewing, Solution-Focused Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy and Dialectical Behavior Therapy. I also have a certificate in holistic dietary and lifestyle tools that connect the mind with the body for greater mental health.
You don’t have to keep pushing through. I know how lonely and hard it can be to find your way forward.
My Pillars for Mental Health
Nervous System Regulation
Be in tune with your body in order to recognize how you’re whole body is impacted when you’re stressed. Move from reactivity to regulated reesponding.
Emotional Health
Understand your own story, know your triggers, get to know yourself on a deeper level in order to find change, relief and live a more aligned life.
Well Balanced Lifestyle
Find spaces in life to slow down and be mindful; cultivate joy and peace in day to day living. Eat a variety of food that are minimally processed and provide nutrient density.

What makes holistic mental health different?
Holistic mental health looks beyond symptoms to understand how the mind, body, lifestyle, relationships and environment all influence well-being. Rather than simply treating anxiety, depression or burnout in isolation, it considers the whole person. The goal is help you feel better emotionally while also supporting lifestyle foundations that make lasting mental health possible.

NTP’s do NOT practice medical nutrition or dietetics. NTP’s do NOT diagnose or treat disease. NTP’s do NOT act as a substitute for doctors or other licensed healthcare providers.
What are the Foundations of holistic mental health?
The foundations of holistic mental health include supporting lifestyle habits such as sleep and movement, caring for emotional well-being and relationships and properly caring the for the body you’re in. It also recognizes the important role of nervous system regulation and how factors such as stress, physical health and daily routines can influence how we feel mentally and emotionally. By looking at the whole person, holistic mental health aims to build the foundations that support greater resilience, balance and overall well being.
