I specialize in working with people who have experienced trauma or verbal, emotional, physical or sexual abuse in their families or close relationships. Particularly when abuse happens earlier in life or over a long period, those suffering may develop various symptoms including depression, anxiety, low self esteem, self harm, substance use, and anger issues. I view symptoms as ways of coping that have helped you survive so far. We collaborate in therapy to help you find new ways to relate to yourself and others, and create a more meaningful and satisfying life, however that might look for you.

I have 25 years of experience seeing individuals and couples.

I have found mindfulness to be an important life skill for people. It is particularly helpful in dealing with stress, anxiety, and depression. With this skill we can all learn to quiet our busy minds and handle emotions more effectively.
