I’m a Licensed Professional Counselor and Board Certified Dance/Movement Therapist specializing in helping children, teens, families, and couples dealing with anxiety, depression, trauma, and family conflict. I’m trained in Eco-Systemic Family Therapy and use a trauma-informed approach that addresses collective and generational trauma within the family. I’m also EMDR certified and use this approach to help individuals process previous traumas or negative life events. My interventions include reframing unhealthy narratives, physical movement techniques, breathing, mindfulness activities, and other creative interventions. I focus on strengths to help clients boost their confidence and empower individuals and families to establish better ways of communicating and interacting. I’m a faculty member at the Ferentz Institute, where I lead workshops on creative movement interventions for families who have experienced trauma. I have presented at the International Society for the Study of Trauma and Dissociation, the Expressive Therapies Summit, and the American Dance/Movement Therapy Conference. I am an expert in helping families navigate stress from natural disasters. My book, Rebuilding Hope Through Movement, explores creative interventions for children and communities who have experienced community disasters. My style is warm, open, fun, creative, strength-based and non-judgmental. I believe in working collaboratively to accomplish goals and move your family forward. When I’m not in sessions, I enjoy traveling, teaching Zumba, listening to broadway music, and spending time with my family. Reach out for a free consultation to see if we are a good fit. https://www.movingfamiliesforward.com/contact daily 0.75 2024-06-14 https://www.movingfamiliesforward.com/couplestherapy daily 0.75 2024-07-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f8f372b09719272bf4a81b0/1625245673675-L147VX1D4NHP2JMTDXCH/Couples+smiling+in+nature Couples Therapy - Counseling for Couples Seeking to strengthen your relationship and resolve conflicts? In couples therapy you will learn better ways of communicating, setting boundaries, and supporting each other. Partners will work to break down old, unhealthy patterns and build stronger connections by expressing feelings, practical skill building and creative interventions using a mind-body approach. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f8f372b09719272bf4a81b0/1625246808957-QGT90DPUZYPMZ8IASNZA/karsten-winegeart-0QTcK1JcteQ-unsplash.jpg Couples Therapy - When the road gets bumpy When you bring two people together with different experiences, opinions, and personalities to create a unified life, there are bound to be bumps in the road. Sometimes, these bumps turn into potholes or even sinkholes that keep getting bigger. In relationships, we often get stuck in these holes because even though they are unpleasant, they are comfortable or easier. In couples therapy, we will dive deep into the holes i.e (negative patterns that are keeping you stuck) and work together on creating healthier ways or relating. We will explore your early attachments and history of relationships to help you better understand where you have been and how you got here. https://www.movingfamiliesforward.com/familytherapy daily 0.75 2024-07-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f8f372b09719272bf4a81b0/1626467950674-4ZLCB7J8HQJBB578EN03/Family+in+nautre Family Therapy - How can Family Therapy help? Family therapy can help you learn to understand one another and develop healthier patterns of communication. You will gain perspective into your family members’ needs and how they are feeling, so that everyone feels supported and appreciated. Whether you are navigating a new blended family, going through a divorce, experiencing a loss, managing various mental health needs, struggling with addiction, or going through a life transition, family stress can feel overwhelming. Whatever the challenge, you deserve to be heard and supported by your family. In family therapy, we will work together to find the root of the conflict, understand one another, build attachment, and move forward together. I use a systems approach, where I view family problems as part of a larger system. It is not about pointing fingers and placing blame on certain individuals, but rather evaluating how the family functions as a whole, encouraging each person to create positive changes to improve the family dynamics. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f8f372b09719272bf4a81b0/1626383720539-R4P4MFRBHY84INDJOWZI/caroline-hernandez-TMpQ5R9mbOc-unsplash.jpg Family Therapy - What do sessions look like? I rely on Eco-Systemic Structural Family Therapy, an evidence based practice, along with Dance/movement Therapy and other creative interventions. I gather background information and learn about history of attachment, trauma, and family patterns. Using movement, art, mindfulness, breathing and talk therapy, we will identify and overcome obstacles that have kept your family from moving forward and create healthier relationships through positive interactions. I encourage each family member to express their feelings and needs, fostering a safe space where you will feel understood and supported. I also offer parent coaching sessions, where we work on developing family routines that build trust and effective communication. https://www.movingfamiliesforward.com/dancemovement-therapy daily 0.75 2024-07-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f8f372b09719272bf4a81b0/1632422110977-TVOSSM0J0TC29PYKKO4F/girl+dancing+on+a+bridge Dance/Movement Therapy - Who is it for? Dance/movement therapy is for everyone! Children, teens, families, couples, groups, and adults can all benefit from dance/movement therapy. It is especially useful for people who struggle with communication, like to express themselves in creative ways, have excess energy, enjoy movement and mindfulness techniques, have experienced trauma or have symptoms of anxiety and depression, and are open to integrative mind-body approaches. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f8f372b09719272bf4a81b0/1632424589079-U0SULX6BRPB4TG5UMYVM/girl+with+arms+open Dance/Movement Therapy - How can it help me? Movement can help you get out of your head and into your body! Ever struggle with overthinking? Maybe you find yourself talking in circles, which makes you more anxious and is not helpful. The mind and the body are connected so working through movement can help shift thoughts in the brain, giving us new insight into our problems. Movement techniques can also boost your mood, increase self-esteem, help you manage emotions, make you feel more comfortable in your body, and lower anxiety and depression. https://www.movingfamiliesforward.com/supervision daily 0.75 2026-03-15 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f8f372b09719272bf4a81b0/1632421525794-MNGQOACG1ZFMBM9X2MPL/the-creative-exchange-UhpAf0ySwuk-unsplash+%281%29.jpg Clinical Supervision https://www.movingfamiliesforward.com/therapyteenschildren daily 0.75 2024-07-30 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f8f372b09719272bf4a81b0/1632427548131-TCQN5DQ5Z5WIB1NOW3VG/unsplash-image-LIaLQ2SIQuk.jpg Therapy with Teens and Children - Therapy with Teens and Children Your child or teen can manage their big emotions, learn coping skills, get support, begin to heal from traumatic experiences, and feel good about themselves again. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f8f372b09719272bf4a81b0/1632427975484-JKNL5Q673EA2A2HT5ESP/unsplash-image-OD1_HupXwxI.jpg Therapy with Teens and Children - Therapy with Children Ages 5-12 At this age, your child is learning a lot of new skills like reading, writing, and gaining competency in school and extra curricular activities. With all this pressure to succeed and show competency, life can feel scary, sad, frustrating, and overwhelming. If you have noticed that your child has big feelings, acts out, has trouble listening or making friends, worries a lot, or seems sad and withdrawn, therapy can help! Therapy can help your child understand and regulate their feelings, learn coping skills to manage frustration, gain confidence in themselves, and practice strategies for handling challenges. I will work with your child to help them feel better and just enjoy being a kid. Together we will explore their feelings and life stressors with art, music, dance, and play. These creative mediums help your child better express themselves while boosting self-esteem. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f8f372b09719272bf4a81b0/1632428041698-S7G9CGIVCXKDEBW4N7LR/unsplash-image-ix9I7kfMpcc.jpg https://www.movingfamiliesforward.com/emdrtherapy daily 0.75 2024-06-14 https://www.movingfamiliesforward.com/therapybootcamp daily 0.75 2024-07-24 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f8f372b09719272bf4a81b0/1683052646016-TN94E3Z7T0DGMGAI7UQZ/Woman+climbing+up+a+mountain https://www.movingfamiliesforward.com/emdrconsultation daily 0.75 2024-08-08 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f8f372b09719272bf4a81b0/1722265668500-MC5NLDQ1YAUEG1SCNX0F/man+looking+at+computer https://www.movingfamiliesforward.com/get-started daily 0.75 2025-04-18 https://www.movingfamiliesforward.com/get-started/p/relationship-with-youothers-rcxn3 monthly 0.5 2019-07-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ced8e1d5fd4c700018dd761/1560190004400-XTA0DF0S9WOZJUG994C8/Stocksy_txp824ffa5crXt000_Original_845035.jpg Get Started - Relationship with You+Others https://www.movingfamiliesforward.com/get-started/p/relationship-with-others-yrasg monthly 0.5 2019-07-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ced8e1d5fd4c700018dd761/1560189982811-KFAJF1TCUH1SXZ827UMC/Stocksy_txp824ffa5crXt000_Large_844923.jpg Get Started - Relationship with Others https://www.movingfamiliesforward.com/get-started/p/relationship-with-you-bks4l monthly 0.5 2019-07-05 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ced8e1d5fd4c700018dd761/1560189874730-3B0TSLDUHTQ93497V3L8/Stocksy_txp824ffa5crXt000_Large_844934A.jpg Get Started - Relationship with You
