The first steps to a counseling session can be scary, but it is also a courageous act in understanding yourself and living a more engaging life. My philosophy in providing care has always been "helping others help themselves." I believe that each individual has the ability to change and grow in their journey. In sessions I provide a safe, compassionate, and collaborative space. I will also acknowledge that our world is vastly different and more chaotic than it was a few years ago - political discourse, racial injustices, climate change - and I will do my best to offer you some direction in these collective struggles.

Hi, and thanks for checking out my page. Mostly I work with couples, but I also serve individuals. I practice Emotionally Focused Therapy (an evidence-based therapy), Internal Family Systems (IFS), and psychedelic-assisted therapies. In my career I've seen a lot and worked with many different kinds of people; hence, I'm professional and nonjudgmental. I enjoy being a social worker and therapist for all types of humans, but I specialize in serving queer and TGNC couples. I also offer ketamine-assisted psychotherapy. My belief is that being a person is hard, but good relationships are what help us to heal and feel safe.

The goal of therapy isn’t to ‘feel better’, although that should be one of the outcomes. The suffering we experience is rarely a malfunctioning of the brain- it is usually in response to real challenges and is an important way to prepare ourselves for a developmental leap. When we are suffering, our brains release hormones that promote ‘neuroplasticity’, our minds begin to reexamine outdated narratives, and our relationships are challenged with the need for deeper vulnerability and more skillful communication.

All people need to feel safe, connected and capable. When something interferes with our ability to get these needs met in a healthy way, we develop alternative solutions or avoidance strategies that may help in the short-term but cause harm in the long run. I provide a safe space for people to explore and process difficult experiences and the self-defeating beliefs and over-adaptive behaviors that may have developed in response. I have a genuine interest in others and bring warmth, authenticity, and a non-judgmental presence to sessions to help you get unstuck and to walk with you on your journey of healing and transformation.

I do therapy backwards. I help people first find acceptance of what's challenging them, and focus on making that feeling of discomfort feel safe. I believe that allowing the experience of the full range of human emotions is key to reclaiming and strengthening our emotional resiliency. We can accept the presence of discomfort and feel joy, while identifying and making changes based on who we want to be or know we are. My therapy practice is based in an understanding of the nervous system, mindfulness, and the ways we all experience and react to trauma and distress.

Often we get so busy with the stress and fast-paced movement of daily life that when we do come up for air, we may realize we're living a life out of sync with our own wants and needs. We may have normalized parts of our lives we dislike, and now feel unsure or unworthy of who we are or what we want. Therapy is a process in which we will work together to create space for you to slow down and unpack all of the beliefs, burdens, expectations, identities, fears, and hopes you hold; to assess what works and let go of what no longer serves you, to review who you've been and cultivate the person you want to be.

Hey there! I’m so glad you’re here. Seeking out therapy shows a brave desire to explore, confront, heal, and grow — and you're so worthy of finding a safe person who can facilitate that for you. I use a holistic, person-centered approach to connect with individuals, couples, and families ages 10+. I aim to show up authentically in therapy (in the hopes that you will too!) and adapt it so that we can empower your inner voice and work toward forming healthy connections with those around us. I also specialize in culturally responsive therapy and working with those who are people of color, LGBTQ+, or children of immigrants.

You’re conflicted! The profound weight and pressure to decide to make the right decision is shattering you. Your life, well-being, and sanity remain undetermined while you consider your next move. On the one hand, divorce feels like a defeat, a judgment from others, or humiliation. You think about the effects on your family and consider how it will likely be one of the costliest things that you ever endure. On the other hand though, you feel alone, suffocating, drowning, unable to be yourself in your marriage. It feels like you have given your all. This moment is hard, and you worry that no matter what you choose to do, you’ll lose.

Understanding who you are or what you are feeling is difficult when you are not even sure what words to use to describe your experience or what questions to ask yourself. Naming that is a big step. You may put on a mask to navigate the world in order to reduce the pressures you feel from society. High expectations when you were younger may make mistakes seem unacceptable. The journey to explore who you are may seem lonely. You may notice similarities in the relationships you form now with the relationship you have with your family. The early traumas in your life may be triggering you now in ways that are frustrating and upsetting.

Life sure knows how to throw you a curveball that knocks you off your feet. Maybe it's the ending of a relationship, a major identity transition, or a loss that's hit you like a truck. My clients are adults (18+) who often describe themselves as feeling lost in all the changes happening around them and want to feel empowered in taking the next steps. When working with me, clients can expect to start feeling more in control of their choices and build fulfillment in their relationships. Together, we will work to have you not only recognize yourself again, but also gain a sense of appreciation for the person you've become.
