I am a Licensed Mental Health Counselor in the state of Massachusetts. After having completed my master's in Clinical Psychology in Germany, I came to the United States. There, I received a certificate in Holistic Health as well as a master's in Expressive Therapies and Mental Health Counseling from Lesley University in Cambridge.
I am dedicated to assisting you find your voice and inner strengths. My counseling philosophy follows the humanistic perspective where everyone has an inherent ability to realize their fullest potential. Along the way I want to empower you to believe in learning from experience and to use challenges as opportunities to grow. Sessions will be solution-focused, centering attention on maximizing your potential. In my work, I consider the interdependence within and in between individuals which is described by systems theorists, as well as by neuroscientists, quantum physicists, and ancient eastern traditions.
Through mindfulness practice, you will be able to identify internal thought and behavior patterns. Changes in those patterns will result in changes in your external experiences and vice versa. I emphasize the inseparable connection between mind and body. I will teach you to use your body as a source for emotional awareness and release.
Additional areas of focus: Trauma and abuse, Eating disorders, Parenting issues, Career difficulties, Depression
