I reply to all emails - so please note that replies to Psychology Today inquiries sometimes go to spam folders.

In my clinical mental health practice, my goal is to support you in cultivating more peace, connection, and joy—honoring what this means to you and your individual experience. With over 15 years in the field, I have found that when one seeks support for the things that aren't working in their life, these things tend to get better. You can improve your world—I am here to walk with you on your path.

The willingness to engage in a process, to consider other perspectives alongside of our own, to courageously seek assistance... all cornerstones to positive change. Ultimately, what we think can help lead us to what we become.

Wondering what is next? How you got where you are? Who you are? Afraid you've missed opportunities or what you hoped for is passing by? I work with people looking for authenticity and fulfillment, offering a chance to question openly and explore who you are and what you really love. Understanding the inevitability of change and how to navigate through sometimes unthinkable circumstances can feel overwhelming. I love working together with clients to help them understand and manage these deep emotions--and to realize that they do have the courage to face what is ahead and the ability to manage their own lives.

I utilize a non-judgmental and collaborative approach to assist people in increasing their self-knowledge to create positive change.

Welcome! It can be very difficult asking for help. Through my engaged and compassionate therapeutic style, I work to lessen the difficulty. I believe that throughout all of our lives we find ourselves navigating transition, relational difficulties, illness, distress, and growth. During these times, there can be a range of experiences from mild dissatisfaction to anxiety and despair. My practice centers on fostering an empathic and authentic therapeutic environment in which there is acceptance and safety in exploring and making meaning out of your experiences and internal world.

I believe people are experts in their own lives and so I meet them where they are, in the moment. That is why I offer a warm, welcoming, and non-judgmental environment in which to safely explore life challenges, heal, and grow. I draw from multiple treatment approaches including but not limited to Relational and Person-centered, Acceptance and Commitment (ACT), Internal Family Systems (IFS) and always through a Trauma focused lens.

I provide psychotherapy to adults by helping them heal through awareness and self-knowledge. I listen to understand the individual and help facilitate a trusting therapeutic relationship. Through listening and understanding I can help to bring positive change in your life. I encourage the exploration of the conscious and unconscious mind to help identify core causes of your issue. By identifying the core causes of your issue with the help of a trusting therapeutic relationship we can replace unhealthy beliefs and behaviors with healthy ones.

My goal as a psychotherapist is to create a trusting and supportive relationship in which clients can explore their experiences, create insight, and overcome barriers that limit their full potential. My therapeutic approach is integrative and informed by humanistic, psychodynamic, and family systems theories. It is also anchored by social justice, ecological, and liberation approaches.

I believe that life is a process of becoming. Who we are today is not who we were yesterday nor who we will be tomorrow. Sometimes on our journey we feel unsure of ourselves or our destination which is where the counseling process can be helpful. Through our work together, we can explore who you are and what you want, as well as identify and change the mental roadblocks that are interfering with your happiness and success. With patience and insight, you will begin to feel more wholly connected to yourself which will bring you peace and lasting change.

I believe that a genuine therapeutic relationship can serve as a foundation for immense personal growth and change. I offer a therapeutic practice that is based on sincerity, compassion, and 10+ years of diverse clinical experience. I enjoy working with a broad spectrum of mental health challenges, and incorporate various theoretical models into my practice.

I aim to co-create the conditions for waking up and realizing the beauty and radiant Life that you already are. In the midst of your current suffering from past traumatic events and/or addictions this may seem like an impossible or distant dream. I am Somatic Psychotherapist and Mindfulness Practitioner. I facilitate mindful awareness of body sensations through to a range of somatic body mind interventions based on the latest knowledge in neurobiology. In accessing your body and mind's innate wisdom you will be able to release the effects of trauma and be free from compulsions and obsessions.

I have accrued over 15 years of experience with people on sorting through a variety of life's difficulties. I work with people who may be struggling with all sorts of problems including anxiety, depression, substance abuse, and relational difficulties.

Given the level of community and world uncertainty, you may be feeling increased anxiety, depression, conflict, confusion and isolation. How do you cope with such enormous uncertainty? Working effectively with your mind and reactivity is essential to finding balance, strength, comfort and connection. My focus in therapy is to listen deeply to your inner wisdom, express more fully who you are, develop skills to accomplish this and make choices that further your positive intentions. Life provides challenges at the best of times; we need support when we are most vulnerable. Therapy provides an opportunity to explore what is possible.
