Psychotherapist
NY
One of the most powerful aspects of music is its ability to reach and impact the mind, body, and spirit of the listener with or without the use of words. As a clinician, I firmly believe that good therapy does the same. In my work, I utilize a person-centered and trauma-informed approach. Trauma is not what happened (or didn't happen), but how you changed because of it. Whether you are a survivor of abuse or still feel a knot in your stomach when you think about the time you were picked last at recess, we all carry scars and adaptations from our past experiences. Trauma is almost universal. Fortunately, so is resilience. While it was once believed that talking about traumatic experiences was the only way to heal from them, research shows that significant healing can take place even without verbally retelling events. Therefore, I employ an eclectic approach to trauma treatment, customized to meet the individual strengths and needs of my clients. Some of the techniques I utilize include the creative arts, somatic exercises, mindfulness-based experiences, EMDR, cognitive-behavioral techniques (such as DBT), and verbal processing. ?You were only waiting for this moment to arise?? - The Beatles Personal Background As a highly sensitive kid, I often struggled growing up to find my place. When I was very young, music was my refuge, my safe place. As I got older, my relationship with music became more complicated. I still enjoyed listening to and creating music in isolation but struggled with horrible performance anxiety around others. I knew I wanted a career where I could help others enjoy music the way I once had. Initially, I pursued a career in music education, as I was not aware that the field of music therapy existed. I made my way through undergrad but not without some significant battle wounds. Later, I earned my Master's in Music Therapy from Molloy University, which deepened my understanding and equipped me to integrate music and therapy in meaningful ways.
