Whether you have a current personal or relationship crisis, or an ongoing problem, I can help you increase your peace, satisfaction, effectiveness, and understanding of yourself and others. Want joy and satisfaction in your life, and yet circumstances, known or unknown, seem to keep getting in the way? I offer tools for changing that. We will work with both the conscious brain, and with the instinctive brain, which has a mind and a life of its own. Many who've had much therapy, made good changes but not fundamental shifts, have happily transformed their lives working this way with me.

I work with people who identify as artists and visionaries, empaths, highly sensitive persons, or creative/connected. I believe that anything and everything you bring to the therapy room deserves to take up space and be seen. Sometimes this feeling is intangible and language fails to encompass this journey. My job is to help you better learn how to fully engage with your human experience. Sometimes this happens through painting, storytelling, yoga. Other times it happens through simply being witnessed in conversation with another, and I am here to witness.

Exhausted by your loud inner critic? Overwhelmed by your never-ending to-do list? Despite appearing to have your sh!t together, internally, you may feel like a scattered fraud, cosplaying as a human. Trying to be the perfect friend, perfect professional, or perfect partner all at once is exhausting. Maybe there's a deeper wound that hasn't healed yet. Perhaps you dream of feeling fulfilled, calm, and confident. To say "no" and really mean it. To stop playing small & launch that creative idea. If you want to stress less and live authentically without fear or guilt, I’d love to help you step into your power.

Sometimes it feels like no matter what we do or how hard we try, we are treading water just to keep our head above the surface. We get stuck in patterns of behaving, thinking, relating, and coping that no longer serve us. We feel hopelessness, shame, fear, and self-doubt, keeping us from the things we need most- connection, vulnerability, and meaning. In this place, it is hard to see a way out and we feel helpless to make a change. We lose sight of who we are, what we value, and what brings us joy and contentment. My goal is to help you get “unstuck” so that you can engage more fully in your life.

What is psychotherapy? It is deep listening, empathy, guidance. It is a place where you may bring your troubles and challenges, joys, and accomplishments.

Whatever brings you to me, I will be honored to welcome you to a space of healing and growth.
