I have a warm, accepting, and down-to-earth presence. I view the therapeutic relationship as a collaboration in which I can assist in guiding you towards greater self-understanding and tap into the wisdom and resilience that already exists within. I have experience working with clients living with anxiety, depression, stress, symptoms related to trauma, and addiction issues. I particularly enjoy working with individuals navigating a transition or stage of life change and those looking to better understand and shift from patterns of thinking, behavior, communication, or of relationships which are no longer of service.

I approach my work from a Buddhist perspective, with special interest in supporting clients through body image concerns, pet loss, exploring alternatives to marriage, social isolation. My technique integrates metaphor, reframing, Focusing, mind-body awareness, and energy work, while drawing deeply on intuition.
Together, we will explore your unique story and help you reconnect with yourself on a deeper level. You will learn to tune into your body and listen to what it is communicating. Through expressive practices such as writing, art, movement, and dialogue, you can develop tools to uncover and process your emotions.

If you’re going through a rough time and feel like friends and family aren’t quite enough right now, you’re not alone. Sometimes, talking to someone outside your usual circle can make a big difference. If you’re new to counseling, it helps to know a bit about your counselor and what to expect. Counseling offers a private space with a trained professional who can support you in working through your concerns and checking in on your well-being.

I believe in providing a comfortable and relaxed environment for clients to address issues identified in treatment. Collaborative treatment planning with my client allows for goals and objectives to be identified. Clients will begin the healing process using a variety of techniques, interventions, and theoretical approaches. In addition to outpatient therapy, I also serve as Guardian Ad Litem to Berkshire, Franklin, Hampshire and Hampden County probate courts evaluating high conflict/custody agreements and parenting plans.

An important purpose of a committed relationship is to help us grow. Intimate relationships have the potential to make us stronger, support us to hold a broader perspective, and engage with a presence in the world that reflects who we are and what we care about. With a foundation in the Developmental Model of couples therapy, I offer couples a broader context and developmental arc to the challenges and longings that you may be experiencing.

I believe that therapy can be a deeply strange, powerful, and intimate experience. As a therapist, I try to cultivate a space that is playful and authentic. Together we can examine longstanding patterns, relationships, and modes of being in the world. First and foremost, I'm committed to creating an environment where you can start to put language to confusing, difficult, and sometimes hard to express feelings and experience. Perhaps even more important than articulating thoughts or ideas about yourself, the hope is that together we can find ways for you to experience a deeper and broader range of feeling.

I have a warm, calm and accepting presence and enjoy examining the work from multiple perspectives. I believe clinical work should help increase insight by finding connections between past experiences, the present moment and expectations of the future. My practice is informed by psychodynamic approaches, creating an open and flexible space that is responsive to changing needs. I incorporate metaphor, analogy, art, music, play, mindfulness and relaxation to more fully explore the self in moving toward expression and authenticity.

I entered my doctoral program in counseling psychology with the aim of integrating what I had already learned through study of meditation and Buddhist practice with the technology of Western concepts of wellness and health. I came out with a deep appreciation for the many ways that people arrive at a counselor's door and the many ways they leave. Throughout our lives we constantly face new challenges, leaving home, coupling, parenting, careering, retiring all present challenges we've never faced before. At any point along the way we may be called on to marshal new resources or adapt old strategies that are no longer working.

I realize searching for a therapist can be a daunting process; whether you know the specific issue you want to work on or you’re simply unsure, but you just “know” (or have been told) you could use a skilled therapist. I bring to this work my experience, my knowledge, my empathy and humor. I will ask you to walk this journey with me as we explore the paths to growth.

As a therapist, I work to understand how each person’s particular struggles and stuckness come about. Our struggles, as well as our stories, emotions, and values, have a lot to teach us. I believe that everyone knows something important about what they need to heal, and we can access the strongest, most creative parts of ourselves through authentic and safe relationships. I support individuals in addressing the impact of trauma, anxiety, depression, life transitions, and psychosis. I often work with folks navigating intersections of attachment experience and queer, trans, or neurodivergent identities.
