I am a LCSW & CASAC Level 2 with 16 years of experience doing clinical work with individuals and couples. I have worked with clients who experience sexual dysfunction, depression, anxiety, mental health concerns, trauma, chronic health conditions and addictions. I specialize in sex therapy with diverse clients seeking to increase intimacy, confidence and improve communication about sex. I offer sex positive therapy to people with various sexual identities and orientations, who are monogamous, ENM/CNM, in plural relationships, have kinks and non-traditional lifestyles. Therapy can be short or long term focusing on holistic wellness.

As a systemically trained therapist, I work with individuals, couples, families, and chosen families. I bring a centered and warm approach, collaborating with clients to: a) understand how their histories have shaped their present lives and relationships, and b) empower them to make the changes that they desire. I believe that psychotherapy should be embodied and experiential; the wisdom of the body is instrumental in addressing the struggles of the heart and the mind. I value cultural humility and equality, and I strive to place these values at the forefront of my work.

Throughout my career I have worked in a variety of settings including hospitals, mental health clinics, nonprofits, and schools. Working with all ages including children, adolescents, and adults, I support clients dealing with various challenges including anxiety, depression, grief, trauma, interpersonal conflict, parenting, as well as school and social challenges. I integrate client-centered, strengths-based, trauma-informed, anti-racist, and liberatory approaches to care. My clinical work is influenced by integrative methods including mindfulness, somatics, supportive therapy, and cognitive behavioral therapy techniques.

Many of my clients appreciate my personable approach to treatment. While I have a respect for the application of theory to practice, I do not apply a one size fits all approach that is tethered to one idea. I believe treatment is a creative process. Through this creative process we collaborate to work towards developing new insights that inform change. I believe treatment is most effective when we not only observe the challenges, symptoms or problems that bring you to therapy but also your strengths. Through this process we develop a plan that is more tailored for you.

People seek therapy for different reasons. Some want to solve a specific problem, and some want relief from feelings of unhappiness or anxiety. Others want to make a change in work or relationships, or want to be liberated from a pattern of behavior that's not working for them. You may have a combination of these issues or just feel "jumbled" -- uncertain about the source of troubling feelings. In all of these cases, seeking professional help is the first step. By doing so, you make real your wish for change and your wish to feel better.

I am a clinical neuropsychologist and learning specialist who is available for therapy/coaching sessions. I have a holistic approach that utilizes cognitive re-framing, behavioral modification and mindfulness practices. Cognitive re-framing uses cognitive behavioral techniques to identify and extinguish maladaptive thought patterns. Behavioral modification is used to optimize behavior patterns. Last, mindfulness practices are essential for identifying and maintaining optimal thought and behavior patterns. There are many different ways to practice mindfulness and working together we can uncover the path that works best for you.

Therapy is a wonderful type of self-care and tool. It aids in positive changes and healing relationships. My work is about supporting clients in reaching their goals. I provide a positive space, and warm therapeutic relationship. This perspective allows clients to develop insight into the patterns of their behaviors and to learn coping skills that will help bring about resilience and positive change.

My philosophy is simple: The mind and body is designed to heal itself, and it needs only the proper awareness and fine-tuning in order to achieve this. I use a collaborative, eclectic approach that draws from many disciplines including, but not limited to psychodynamics, attachment theory, cognitive-behavioral therapy, EMDR, evolutionary biology, philosophy, and energy psychology (EFT).

My treatment focus is on helping people to identify and understand those narratives that may inhibit self respect, self esteem, coping with stress, and problem solving. The work is psycho-dynamic, in that, we seek actionable suggestions to facilitate developing insight and personal growth. My orientation is Freudian, along with cognitive and mindful elements.
