About me

With 15 years of experience in the mental health, social work, mindfulness, and therapy/counseling realms, my career and passion is being there for others, with warmth, non-judgementalness, openness, empathy, and humor. I have spent my life moving between Germany, Mexico, Brazil and the United States, and I bring a deep multi-cultural understanding to my work with humans from all walks of life. I also know from experience that change, healing, relief, and that sweet elusive "peace" we all long for (a simple heart at rest) takes patience, dedication and skill, and most importantly perhaps: allies. As a therapist it is my hope that I can be such an ally to you. The kind you've always longed for, the kind we all long for: understanding, warm, present, and unconditional.

Having lived in Berlin, Germany, for 20 years and now living in the U.S. - I work online with International clients in diverse locations. Expats and multi-cultural couples are especially welcome! I look forward to accompanying and supporting you wherever you may be.

Approach

Treatment Approaches
CounsellingRecommended for those who want to talk through their emotional challenges with a professional in a safe, supportive environment.
Couples therapySupport for couples working through problems and who want to gain insight into the relational dynamics that contribute to the problem.
Integrative therapy Recommended for those who prefer a flexible approach that combines different therapies to meet their unique needs.
MindfulnessMindfulness is the process of maintaining a purposeful moment-by-moment awareness of our thoughts, feelings, and surrounding environment.
Somatic experiencingRecommended for those who want to use the mind-body connection to address the effects of trauma and restore natural regulation of the nervous system.

Mindfulness-Based Contemplative & Somatic Counseling offers a holistic and practical awareness & body based approach to exploring and transforming our relationship to our inner and outer worlds. Through facilitated and guided attention to embodied sensation, emotion, & thought, individuals become more attuned and aware of the ever-shifting state of their bodies and minds - while learning to gently cope with & befriend the full range of human experience.

Working with a Mindfulness-Based Contemplative & Somatic Counselor can increase your ability to:

  • gain stability & grounding in your own being amid the challenges of everyday life
  • understand your suffering & your personal coping mechanisms, adopting new habits & disentangling yourself from repetitive, unhelpful, or destructive mental patterns
  • increase your ability to be connected with your own emotions, without judgement, fear, shame, or overwhelm
  • feel more at home in your body, calming your nervous system & chattering mind
  • look at the psychological dynamics in you & others, increasing your understanding, wisdom & compassion
  • gain critical insight into the broader systemic, social, and environmental contexts that are shaping your experience - removing the weight of the blame from the individual
  • unwind and rewire trauma that is stored in the body
  • wake up your senses & reconnect to the alive world around you

Helping you to better navigate the stresses of living with symptoms such as:

  • anxiety or compulsive thinking
  • overwhelm, stress, burnout
  • sadness, depression, or mood disorders
  • difficulties in relationships
  • life transitions & challenges
  • isolation, loneliness
  • loss of a sense of meaning or purpose in life
  • secondary traumatization/ empathic distress
  • ecological grief & climate anxiety
  • & more
