At Layers of Harmony, I provide trauma-informed counseling that blends evidence-based therapies with mindful, somatic practices to restore balance across every layer of life. My goal is to support the natural homeostasis of mind, body, and soul, helping clients feel safer, clearer, and more grounded as they move toward healing and growth.
I have completed my MS in Clinical Mental Health Counseling and I am currently pursuing my PhD in Mind-Body Medicine with a specialization in Integrative Mental Health. In practice, integrative mental health means combining proven therapies such as EMDR, CBT, and DBT with mind-body approaches including meditation, breathwork, hypnotherapy, autogenic training (a relaxation method that uses self-guided phrases to calm the body and mind), and nervous-system regulation skills. I also incorporate practical lifestyle supports such as guidance on sleep, stress, and nutrition, so that care addresses the whole person. This holistic and collaborative approach allows clients to release what no longer serves them, reconnect with resilience, and create balance in mind, body, and soul.
As a classically trained musician, I am also exploring the relationship between music, sound, and mental health through my doctoral studies. I believe that sound and rhythm can play a vital role in regulating the nervous system, expressing emotions that are difficult to put into words, and deepening the healing process.
In addition to my graduate training, I hold certifications in a variety of evidence-based and holistic modalities:
- EMDRIA Approved EMDR Therapist
- Certified Clinical Hypnotherapist (CCHt)
- Certified Transpersonal Hypnotherapist (CTHt)
- Rapid Transformational Therapist® (RTT)
- Institute for Integrative Nutrition (IIN) Certified Health Coach
- SEED Certified Meditation Teacher
- Reiki Master
- Integrated Energy Therapy® Level II
This work is not about quick fixes or labels. It is about creating lasting change by working with every layer of who you are. If what I have shared resonates with you, I invite you to reach out and connect. Together, we can explore whether this approach feels like the right fit for your healing journey.
