Throughout life we encounter circumstances that contribute to distress and overwhelm, and a hope for things to be different. I believe that change is always possible. I believe all feelings, such as sadness, pain, anxiety, anger, joy, and love serve an important function and provide us with information about ourselves and what we need. I recognize the complex roles of family, community, history, and culture contribute to who we are, what we feel, and how we cope.

Therapy can be an important tool to help people to connect not only to each other, but also to themselves. We as human beings desire to be deeply known by our friends, partners, family and the communities we belong to, but we also long to know ourselves and live not only to survive, but to thrive in our own skin.

Connection with others can be both the most important and the most painful aspect of life. You may feel conflicted: yearning for more rewarding relationships while being repeatedly hurt or disappointed by them. Perhaps you have grown tired of making sacrifices in your family or community without seeming to get anything back in return. Chronic disappointment is important to pay attention to, as it can impact mental, physical, and spiritual health. I am an experienced clinician who can help you identify and process thoughts, feelings and body sensations in order to transform them from depleting to vitalizing.

These people may be facing problems that have been called things like anxiety, depression, trauma, disorders, grief, communication or relationship difficulties - names that may or may not feel right to you. Underneath it all, we are looking for the way back to ourselves and each other, to feel safe enough to connect and explore the fullness of life. I want to help you find that way.
