LPC, LADC
As a licensed professional counselor with a specialty in substance use disorders, I maintain a private practice in East Haven CT, Transpersonal Perspectives LLC. I am spiritually oriented, empathically inclined, and fascinated with the metaphysical world. Although I was raised Catholic, in recent years have moved to an eclectic spiritual focus on consciousness and quantum studies, energy psychology, and Christian New Thought. I work best with clients who were raised in dysfunctional households as I was and who self-medicated that feeling of not being wanted, or the chaos, abuse, or neglect early on. I know what scapegoating and gaslighting is and the damage that can come from it. I know what it's like to be told that you "shouldn't feel or think like that" or you’re "too sensitive, too dramatic, or too deep". I have spent many years studying and teaching in the social and behavioral sciences, also have worked in various mental health positions. I have a diverse educational background, secular and faith based, with graduate degrees in political science, psychology and education, and four undergrad degrees in business, sociology and counseling. I love to write and hope to have a fourth book out soon; Who do you say that I am? Christian Meditations on the Sermon on the Mount for Recovery. Psychology is my passion. If you feel you are "highly sensitive and/or spiritually inclined" or enjoy learning about how changing your energy and your state of mind can bring you to a higher level of consciousness, you may enjoy working with me. I am trained to work with integration therapy for use with psychedelics, currently working with ketamine.
