Therapy is about finding someone who "gets you", someone who can build trust and help you find your truth at an ever deeper level. I focus on attachment history, trauma, values and early experiences along with mindfulness practice, using the wisdom of the body to awaken to needs and emotions. Symptoms represent our wiring and our way of coping with the world. Getting past that takes a challenging, gentle, fully present partnership. I work with adults: high performers, creatives and grad students. Hearing each unique path -finding ways to stay alive and awake and engaged in this world on fire.

If you are struggling with health, personal or family issues, I’m sure the larger social context has made them even more complicated. I am inspired by the effort and trust folks bring to therapy. I try to match that with positive energy and clinical expertise. I work with clients with a range of presenting concerns. I am particularly drawn to: identity exploration & growth, grief & loss (all kinds), working with helpers (therapists, healthcare workers, educators..), addressing social challenges & relationships. I specialize in perinatal issues: high risk pregnancy, loss, infertility, traumatic delivery, postpartum mood changes.

It takes courage to go to therapy, especially when you feel stuck and vulnerable. That is why I appreciate the importance of a safe, nurturing and non-judgemental environment. There you can explore who you are, what is important to you and to repair what is keeping you from moving forward, whether it is depression/anxiety, relationship issues or an eating disorder. Once you have self-awareness, strategies and support, you will be able to make better choices and be the person you want to be.

I view counseling and therapy as a conversation. It is my goal to help my clients identify and define what they value in life. Most negative emotions that we experience in life are due to frustrated efforts at achieving the things we value. Often we stand in the way of our own happiness due to unexamined expectations. I believe progress comes through increased awareness and understanding of one's core beliefs about self, others, and the world. I purpose to serve as a sounding board to this growth in awareness and understanding.

Do you ever feel like you're wearing a mask to cover up how you really feel? One of the challenges of personal problems is the pressure to seem like everything's fine. Many of us stifle important parts of ourselves with romantic partners, friends, family and colleagues, fearing that doing otherwise will come at a cost. But masking our feelings often shows up as anxiety, depression, lack of self-care, or dissatisfaction with our relationships.

An ideal client is one seeking inner and outer change to reach a more meaningful life. Exploring the inner world through cognitive approaches, mindfulness and dream work can help with the exploration of blocks stopping the process of change. Those seeking help in improving their marriage and family conflicts would benefit from being in a context where they can be heard as well as being exposed to the perspective of others. Clients having difficulties facing a new culture can benefit working with a bicultural therapist who lived in other countries and experienced those challenges.
