I specialize in exploring the mind-body connection and blend positive psychology with relaxation techniques, biofeedback, yoga, physical exercise, and counseling for healthy eating.Through this integrative approach, clients learn how to let go of stress and mental suffering, and find relief from chronic pain.By practicing mental and physical relaxation techniques in combination with mindful eating, symptoms associated with chronic medical conditions are often alleviated.For clients who want alternatives to medications for conditions such as anxiety, depression, insomnia or attention-deficit disorder, I often use nutritional approaches, including the use of pharmaceutical-grade supplements that are supported by evidence from controlled research studies.
I am a licensed clinical psychologist with over 30 years of experience in holistic therapies, a Board-Certified Senior Fellow in Biofeedback from the Biofeedback Certification Institute of America, a nutrition coach, a Certified Yoga Instructor,and a Certified FirstLine Therapy health care provider.FirstLine Therapy is a therapeutic lifestyle change program that addresses health risks through dietary changes, exercise and stress management.
