A somatic psychotherapist and trainer of actor-singers in New York City since 1982, I still work exclusively with singer's, actors, and those who use their voice professionally in their work. Learning to express yourself authentically, in your God given voice in front of other humans is not always easy- but well worth the time spent. In fact, most people feel that dying would be easier that having to expose oneself in front of an audience.

Unresolved trauma is the source of our panic states that prevent us from being in the state of calm where true emotion is experienced. Our survival muscles, also called the muscles of initiation or emotional muscles, are also the muscles that produce speech and singing. When we are in a state of fight/flight/freeze, we lose access to relaxed elasticity and go into either a hyper or hypo mode.

A holistic, body/mind integrating psychotherapist and art therapist, my 23 years experience with individuals and couples shapes collaborations in which the client's own wisdom-knowing guides unique journeys into wholeness.

My experiential psychodynamic approach to depth healing and integration incorporates gestalt, applied existential psychology, creativity, guided imagery and dreamwork to resolve family of origin issues, developmental trauma, major life transitions, and explore potent life experiences such as relationships, chronic illness, eldering and identifying as GLBT.

I also facilitate classes based on Artlife Creation, exploring the intuitive creativity inherent throughout our lives, and authored the Sounds True teaching set Artlife: Creative Journeys for Life Healing (http://www.soundstrue.com/shop/Artlife/4273.pd)

It takes courage to seek help. I believe that every person can benefit from self-reflection and developing more effective ways to cope with the difficult parts of life. I strive to create collaborative therapeutic relationships with my clients with respect for each person's autonomy and strength. With over six years of experience working with young adults in a PHP/IOP setting, I aim to meet clients where they're at with empathy and compassion.

My therapeutic approach is integrative and holistic. Utilizing skills from Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Dialectical Behavior Therapy, and Acceptance Commitment Therapy, I empower clients to make choices aligned with their goals and values.

I am also the co-founder of Connected Roots: a unique and holistic therapy practice built upon the three pillars of connection, grounding and confidence.
