As a Therapist, I specialize in ILF Neurofeedback. Neurofeedback is a noninvasive brain training method that does not involve "traditional talk therapy." Neurofeedback works by training your brain like a personal trainer at the gym. EEG Biofeedback has been around for over 40 years. It was originally used to help epilepsy and has now advanced to help a multitude of issues from PTST, Autism, ADHD, Migraines, and more. I have trained both in Europe and in the USA. What I love about Neurofeedback is it offers another and different method in helping us with our own issues.

A wise artist once said, "The truth is, I need help, but I just can't imagine who I'd be if I was happy."

I am not here to promise a constant state of happiness, but I will promise that I will accompany and support you in your journey toward healing and peace.

I am a proponent for mindfulness, pranayama, and spirituality on the healing journey and I hold those approaches while also advocating for self-defined recovery.

To anyone else, things might look just fine. You put in a lot of work to keep things fine! But when you slow down, that put-together veneer leaves you all the more isolated as you cope with the self-criticism, frustration, pain, and general turmoil inside. Where is all this coming from? Holding it together takes so much effort. Is it like this for everyone? Is it just another stressful week? You might have spent a long time thinking or being told that you are somehow the problem, but inside, you know that this constant struggle, this inner conflict, isn’t really you.
