I have been a practicing psychotherapist for over 16 years. My approach to therapy is to create a respectful, supportive, and non-judgmental environment in which to explore problems and patterns and work toward health and healing. Anxiety, depression, school and relationship issues, and family adjustment to loss, separation or divorce are some of the more common reasons individuals and families seek my consultation. Our work may be focused on understanding problems, developing skills to more effectively manage symptoms or behaviors, or improving relationships. I also provide support to parents with managing children's behaviors.

My approach draws on one's strengths to overcome obstacles to a more authentic and fulfilling life. I believe it is important to take time to fully understand an individual's unique life and concerns. The most common concerns clients come to discuss involve relationship difficulties and/or feelings of distress, worry, or sadness. Many of my clients are feeling intense stress due to changing life circumstances. Through therapy new perspectives and ways of coping and/or solving problems can be found.

I AM NOT CURRENTLY ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS. People's reasons for seeking therapy are as varied as the individuals themselves. For some, therapy is part of a broader approach to life in which insight and inner work are seen as core elements to living well and expansively. For others, the step to seek therapy is taken out of pain and suffering and after much deliberation. At times our internal experiences are so painful, they prevent us from fully engaging in our lives and relationships. Therapy can help you learn to hold with care and confidence all your thoughts, feelings and memories while moving through life in a meaningful way.

Not Accepting New Clients - I believe we all possess an innate wisdom that allows us to live in a state of flow, safety and healthy relationships. Life challenges, trauma, loss, and stressful transitions can often dampen our flow, showing up as anxious thoughts, panic attacks, depressed mood, or feeling unsafe or alone. During these seasons, we may feel highly activated or impulsive, or alternately listless, numb, or disconnected from ourselves and others. Sometimes reaching out for support during such moments feels immensely difficult, and yet I believe the power of connection can help return us to our inherent wisdom and flow.

I am not currently accepting new clients. You made it to the most difficult part: reaching out. Beginning to look for support can often be the hardest step toward meaning, connection, and emotional wellness. I would be honored to hold space for you. Some people seek therapy to have life feel more fulfilling and to get closer to their authentic selves. Others may be struggling with emotions and stress, and want strategies to reduce the effects of grief or trauma. I enjoy working with people seeking these fundamental needs in life, using an open, relational approach, joining with people on their journey.

As a psychotherapist, I work with adults who want to live a better, more meaningful life that isn’t dominated by suffering and shame. In my work, I help individuals tap into their inner wisdom and vitality during sessions to live better lives outside of sessions. I work with individuals to address issues including mood and anxiety, relationship struggles, substance use, life transitions, gender and sexuality, complex trauma, and identity exploration. I believe that we all struggle to deal with various types of pain, but with help and compassion, it is possible to live a liberated life.

I know trying to find a therapist can feel draining. My goal is to offer you a safe space amongst that sea of overwhelm! My clients will be met where they are at in session and given the tools necessary in moving forward, and beyond therapy. My counseling approach is centered around cognitive therapy, utilizing strength-based and process-oriented modalities. I specialize in anxiety, panic disorder, OCD, life transitions, and relationship issues. I primarily work with college and graduate students, teens, pre-teens and individual adults.

Feeling stuck in your ability to make lasting and meaningful life changes? Or looking for someone to help you cope with anxiety or relationship issues? I specialize in working with young (18 and up) and older adults who struggle with disordered eating, acute and complex trauma, interpersonal issues, anxiety, depression, communication problems, complications with life transitions, and intimacy issues. Additionally, I welcome and have extensive experience working with individuals who are part of the LGBTQIA+ community and individuals in polyamorous or non-traditional relationships.

The best therapy arises out of an authentic connection with an experienced, kind, and curious therapist. I'm serious, yet also warm. Though I've been a therapist for 25+ years, I remain humbled by the privilege of getting to deeply know my clients. I believe that being supported in therapy is necessary, but not sufficient. Real growth often requires encountering uncomfortable parts of ourselves. I strive to to deepen awareness and give practical tools for change, while simultaneously promoting self-compassion. My training and life experience with marriage, parenting, career, and personal growth inform my work.

Please note I am not accepting new clients at this time. Whether you are seeking help in coping with daily stressors or in healing from the effects of trauma, I am here to help you feel more connected, complete, alive and present in your life and relationships. As your therapist, I am committed to creating an emotionally safe and compassionate space for your unique process to unfold.

I'm happy to see you here! I have experience working with individuals of all ages, and particularly enjoy working through a family systems lens. My early work was in community mental health, providing therapy in individuals' homes, schools, and other treatment facilities. I have spent time working with trauma, anxiety, depression, attachment issues, generational trauma, and identity issues.

Are you experiencing anxiety, depression, and/or a general feeling of loss? Do you find yourself reacting or having repetitive thoughts like "I'm not good enough" or "something is wrong with me?" Have you found talk therapy to not quite meet your needs? Sometimes, traumatic or stressful life events can cause us to feel disconnected from our environments and misinterpret what is safe/unsafe. In my therapeutic practice, I go beyond talk therapy to hold space for all human emotional experiences and responses. I seek to help you heal and increase moments of creativity, connection, and play in your day-to-day life.

My practice is full. I am not accepting new clients at the time. / Are you looking for a way to live more fully in the present and want help letting go of past experiences or self-defeating beliefs, thoughts, and behaviors? Are you in pain because of a damaged relationship, past trauma, chronic self-doubt, or all three? I have unique skills and experience that can help. Clients say I am patient, down-to-earth, direct, and collaborative. I am ready to walk with you on the path towards the changes you long to see and experience.

I whole-heartedly welcome all parts of you into our work together. I move beyond working with just your thoughts and embrace you as a whole-person, which includes your emotions, body sensations, relationships, and even spirit. As a result, I offer an integrated approach that includes body-centered, creative, cognitive, and contemplative techniques. By slowing down and deepening insight you can identify limiting patterns, develop greater acceptance, access inner knowing, and make self-directed change.

I enjoy working with folks who are seeking to build satisfaction, authenticity, and fulfillment in their lives. Many of those that I have worked with have faced challenges related to life transitions, LGBTQIA+ identity, systemic oppression, interpersonal relationships, and trauma. I believe that the therapeutic relationship as a collaboration between client and therapist; ultimately, that you, the client, are the experts of their own life.

I collaborate with individuals to support healing and growth, and consider a strong client-therapist relationship to be essential. To this end, I provide a compassionate space for individuals who are looking to heal from their trauma. I welcome the opportunity to connect with you.

Are you looking for a safe place to discuss what matters most to you? Family, work, relationships, health, transitions, grief, loss, children, trauma, life purpose, letting go of past hurts. I love assisting individuals and couples with relationship skills, communication issues, changing self defeating patterns, healing pain (physical and emotional), and learning to be one's best self across settings. I work with children and families in our ever changing world to improve relationships, performance, self awareness, mood, behavior. I bring my many years of experience working with young and old alike to this passionate pursuit of balanced living.

I undertand the courage it takes to pursue psychotherapy and I strive to provide a safe, non-judgmental environment in which to begin this process. I approach each individual in an integrated and holistic way, incorporating mind, body, spirituality, and environment in my assessment and treatment plan. I am interested in working with individuals experiencing a variety of issues including anxiety, depression, relationship problems, life transitions, grief, and trauma. I partner with clients to clarify goals, help recognize and enhance strengths they already possess, provide skills-building to manage day-to-day life, and may address the roots of certain problems.

I work with life transitions, depression, anxiety, trauma, loss or relationships. My intention is to create a relaxed and peaceful environment allowing you to be yourself and grow. I now work completely through telehealth, and I find clients are as easily able to communicate and learn coping skills, or heal negative life experiences with telehealth as in an office setting. I teach Mindfulness techniques to help you reduce stress and live more in the present. I use counseling, DBT skills, EFT tapping, and EMDR and hypnosis to help you learn ways to overcome mental health symptoms and find peace.
