Integrative Music Psychotherapy
Recover from emotional neglect, sexual abuse, and chronic anxiety through your own music and creativity.
Online appointments available in Vermont, Maryland, and Pennsylvania
I help creative adults feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or disconnected move towards clarity and healing using the music they love.
Through a blend of music therapy, somatic work, and depth-oriented psychotherapy, I support adults and young professionals as they care for their nervous system, access inner wisdom, and uncover what matters most to them.
You know there’s more to life than this…
Second guessing everything. Replaying conversations. Scanning for shifts in tone.
Wondering when the next shoe will drop.
You’re so attuned to everyone else’s needs, yet struggle to name your own.
The end result?
Silently suffocating inside, while appearing to have it all together.
A balancing act that leaves you dangling on the edge of guilt, shame, and heart break.
Never feeling like enough and always having to prove your worth.
What if you’ve held the salve to heal all along?
Creativity is where you’ve exhaled.
Even if it’s more difficult to access these days…
Gardening, baking, rearranging a space until it feels just right,
Or perhaps
Playing an instrument, acting, dancing, painting, writing, etc.
These are the tools. This is the path. And something deep inside you knows that’s true.
Let me be the Therapist to help you bushwack your way back.
I use Music, Imagery, and Somatic Awareness to partner with you, going beyond words into the layers of your emotional world. I’ll be with you as you move through your activating memories, instead of avoiding them. So you can build a sense of safety in feeling, not just understanding. Learning to nurture yourself from within. Body, mind, and spirit.
