Illuminate Wellness utilizes a variety of psychotherapeutic techniques, including Dialectical Behavior Therapy and assertiveness training to support you in healthy emotional expression and overall balance. With proper support you can live life in a more harmonious manner. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bf0a3ff9772ae0905637336/1575833076722-XQV1WXYH4BPYTLNQQPZG/image-asset.jpeg SPECIALTIES - ANXIETY - DEPRESSION - BIPOLAR DISORDERS Are you suffering from anxiety or depression? Do you tend to experience impulsivity and mood swings? Are you having difficulty initiating or maintaining sleep? Difficulty with concentration? Do you ever experience suicidal ideation? At Illuminate Wellness we treat the whole person so you can heal at the root level. We utilize a variety of evidence-based therapeutic approaches including cognitive-behavioral therapies like Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT) and Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT). We also offer Functional Medicine treatment approaches in order to address any underlying physical issues that could otherwise interfere with psychotherapeutic treatments. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bf0a3ff9772ae0905637336/1575833124548-FT21LOB2CTRUJWR15JE5/image-asset.jpeg SPECIALTIES - BORDERLINE PERSONALITY DISORDER (BPD) At Illuminate Wellness we treat the whole person, and choose to see people beyond just the label of diagnosis. Time and time again in our clinic we experience people struggling with the symptoms associated with BPD are most often living with complex PTSD, and that is what’s truly fueling their life challenges at present. We take an integrative approach to healing in this area. We most often utilize a combination of Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT) to help support effective action, values-based living, and radical acceptance of reality as it is, and trauma resolution techniques to heal at the root level. We aim to reduce the stigma associated with BPD and truly believe that these symptoms can be healed for good with proper, evidence-based treatment. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bf0a3ff9772ae0905637336/1575833172823-RE7L0ARETK9IXQATCHX5/image-asset.jpeg SPECIALTIES - CHRONIC ILLNESS - CHRONIC PAIN Are you suffering from a chronic illness like an autoimmune disease, fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, irritable bowel and other digestive complaints, diabetes, thyroid disorder, or migraines? Do you experience chronic pain in your body? Illuminate Wellness addresses these challenges from an integrative perspective utilizing effective and evidence-based treatment modalities from both Health Psychology and Functional Medicine perspectives. We support helping people to make meaningful and long-lasting behavioral changes that support harmony in the body, utilize functional medicine techniques that support individualized treatment plans to reduce systemic inflammation and heal imbalances in the body, and will also address underlying trauma that could be triggering symptoms in your body.

While it is true that single-incident PTSD is serious and debilitating, we don't stop to consider how many of us have experienced a variety of traumatic experiences throughout our lives that add up to negative beliefs about self, the world, and can even trigger discomfort and disease in the body. Do you struggle with feeling unsafe, powerless or have negative thoughts about yourself or your past actions? If so, we can help.

Our approach is gentle, supportive, and inspires those suffering to build a healthy relationship with their bodies for long-lasting healing. We reject the idea that counting calories, exchanges or focus on the numbers are necessary for your treatment plan. We treat eating disorders by working on sustainable stabilization of weight, addressing possible trauma, healing underlying nutrient deficiencies, food allergies and gut dysbiosis, building a healthy relationship with body, movement and food, and improving mindfulness and intuitive eating practices which increase trust in self and action. We often use a team-based approach when offering treatment in this area, and recommend concurrent treatment with a Registered Dietitian (RD) and a medical team to ensure that you are supported comprehensively. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5bf0a3ff9772ae0905637336/1612399721889-SXLQCLIH5RVXPK63C201/image-asset.jpeg SPECIALTIES - PSYCHEDELIC ASSISTED THERAPIES + INTEGRATION Have you considered working with plant medicine or having psychedelic experiences?

She is certified in EMDR and is a PSYCH-K facilitator. Her approach is trauma-informed, evidence-driven and attachment-based. She supports individuals living with addictions, anxiety, low-self esteem, codependence, depression, eating disorders, fears and phobias, grief, PTSD, stress management and anger management, as well as those seeking to integrate prior healing, optimize meditation and break through rigid paradigms that inhibit growth. She is passionate about supporting couples in recognizing their maladaptive patterns (blaming, criticizing, withdrawing, distracting, resentment, jealousy, infidelity, communication issues, anger) and co-creating a fresh and functional relational roadmap with a deep well of modalities including EFT, The Human Growth Model, body-based healing and the Gottman Method.

She is a published author with a background in art, teaching, organic farming, permaculture and has a deep connection to the natural world and spirituality.
