You may feel overwhelmed, anxious, or disconnected—like no matter what you do, you can’t quite relax or feel fully present. Some days it’s racing thoughts, tension, or emotions that feel too big; other days it’s numbness or going through the motions. Relationships may feel stuck in painful cycles. Deep down, you want relief, steadiness, and a stronger connection to yourself and others.

I believe you will experience me as genuine, curious, and direct. Working together will involve challenging long-held assumptions and identifying new ways of conceiving of problems, relationships, and life in general. The work we do in therapy is serious and it is hard. It's also valuable and rewarding, and in our work, we will likely find ourselves laughing a lot. Here, you will experience acceptance and connection that will make the relationships in your life easier to navigate and more rewarding.

As a Certified Gestalt Psychotherapist, I believe in the power of relationships and am passionate about engaging people in a collaborative, creative process of healing. I am trained to listen for a client's internal sense of knowing, believing that a person naturally wants to grow and heal in ways that we will discover together.

Being human can be confusing, overwhelming and painful. Despite this predicament, I believe therapy can help shed the feeling of a constricted life and achieve an authentic and empowered sense of self. Through a collaborative and compassion-centered approach, I aim to help hold in a non-judgmental space the challenging parts of life and encourage next steps in your journey. The technique I use most often is trauma-sensitive mindfulness combined with concepts and methods from CBT, DBT and MI while applying lenses such as attachment, familial, cultural, generational and that of global systems.

There are so many reasons to seek out therapy. Maybe you have been in therapy for years, maybe this is your first time. Whatever the reason or your experience, I am glad that you are here. Therapy can be a brave space that we build to reflect on what is happening for you, to process the road that led you here and to set in place obtainable, sustainable response strategies. To do so, we will incorporate a blend of somatic and psychodynamic therapies to unpack current, historical and intergenerational traumas.

Accepting a few new clients for the first time in several years. Trauma, addiction, and loss can disrupt one's life - and often require professional help. Together, we can process the fueling factors of addiction, emotional pain, or relationship issues. While many therapists claim to be 'trauma-informed', my practice, the Phoenix Center for Experiential Trauma Therapy, revolves entirely around trauma work. I've been recognized as a Fellow of the American Academy of Experts in Traumatic Stress - the highest status in the academy.

In the post-COVID era, so many people are struggling with mental health concerns at levels we’ve never seen before. The elderly, young adults, adolescents, and couples, in particular, have been deeply affected. With all the constant connectivity, accessibility, and information overload, it’s easy to feel overwhelmed, anxious, or emotionally drained. As a mental health provider, my heart is in helping people navigate these challenges. I’m deeply committed to those I work with and take great pride in offering care, understanding, and genuine support as we work together toward healing and growth.

I am very passionate about working with children, adolescents, and adults who are questioning/embracing their gender and/or sexuality. If you are struggling with depression, anxiety, trauma, open/nonmonogamous relationships, suicidality, or a range of other issues, I would love to work with you. I want clients to feel autonomous and in control of their own therapy. I believe that the client is the expert on themselves and my job is to learn about them from them, while contributing with my own skillset.

Many people experience times when they feel stuck in some important aspect of their lives, and want to find a way forward that is true to who they are and to the values that matter to them. Being stuck is often connected to unprocessed early experiences, compounded by living in the turmoil of complex and difficult times, and navigating what appear to be paradigm shifts in how we understand what is happening in and to our world. Therapy can provide a way to work towards clarity, and towards building, maintaining and balancing a healthy sense of self, healthy relationships with others, and a life that makes sense and works for us.

I am a licensed psychologist with over 20 years of experience in providing individual and couples psychotherapy. I focus on relationships, first and foremost, on the one you have with yourself. The work I do in my practice is about restoring the flow of love in relationships where it got stuck due to childhood wounds, individual or collective trauma. When seen or unseen family stories we follow in our lives are brought to the day light and reprocessed together, a new life energy and a new story can start unfolding. I tend to track emotion, body, history and what happens in here and now of each session closely as we work.
