I love working with children who need a safe, steady space to explore big feelings and feel truly seen. I'm especially passionate about helping kids heal from trauma, build confidence, and strengthen emotional regulation in a way that feels playful and empowering. I'm drawn to working both children and adults who have experienced trauma or live with symptoms of PTSD. I also support those navigating autoimmune disease and chronic illness, offering both empathy and insight drawn from both clinical understanding and personal experience.

I believe that the answers are inside you, but they get confused and lost among life's daily battles. They get buried under the opinions of bystanders who don't have to walk in your shoes and experts whose life looks nothing like yours. My goal as a therapist is to help you hear YOU. To clear space where that small voice that knows you better than anyone else, can finally be heard. My job is to listen, to see if you're hearing what I'm hearing and to reflect back where your heart and your head aren't matching up.

There are times in everyone's life when we need to talk to someone outside of our situation. When life get rough, difficult, or confusing no one has to face it alone. I work with clients to aid them in reaching their specific personal goals or just being an objective ear to listen to them and try to provide a different perspective. I specialize in cognitive behavioral therapy and use a variety of techniques tailored to meet my client's needs.

Let's face it, life events shape our present, and contribute to a loss of connection to ourselves, family, others, and the world. A recovered sense-of-self is essential for empowerment to face these issues. And, because this disconnect initially occurs in earliest childhood, traditional "talk" therapy alone is an insufficient approach. I am a therapist shaped by a myriad of life roles and events. I intentionally sought a PhD in clinical psychology with a specialization in "somatic psychology" to underscore my own therapeutic experience. Somatic psychology studies how the "body" informs and provides clues to our emotional responses linked to childhood.

“And how do you feel about that!?” ---Says every TV comedy-bit depicting therapy. In reality, it can be intimidating to share our true feelings with another person- especially with a (virtual) stranger. In therapy sessions, I therefore create a warm, safe, empathetic, non-judgmental, space to unpack your story. I view you as an expert on yourself and will encourage you to honor your own inner wisdom. I value processing your unique context and how intersectional identities and structures of oppression contribute to your distress. My goal is to illuminate the root causes of your pain and to help guide you towards healing and growth.

Are you feeling stuck, overwhelmed, or just tired of carrying it all on your own?
You may be balancing more than your fair share as you navigate life’s challenges, while also managing generational wounds, cultural expectations, and the pressure to “keep it together.” Therapy can be a space for you to breathe, unpack, and begin to heal. I have a passion for working with adults and older teens, especially those dealing with anxiety, trauma, or simply trying to make sense of life’s purpose. I’m trained in CPT, EMDR, CBT, and also use integrative approaches when helpful.

Having been around the world, I know two things to be true: human suffering knows no culture or class, and the need for connection is universal. We are not meant to do life alone, and times of struggle can be such painful illustrations of that. By the time you seek out therapy, you have probably been at this for some time, white-knuckling the steering wheel of life, and adapting in the only ways you know. When you doubt your strength, know the courage it took to get here is not lost on me.

Hello! This message isn't written by AI! This is ME, an experienced therapist who cares. Society has shifted into a high tech world; texts/Instagram/twitter dominates. TALKING with each other in person has diminished. Yet "talking/noise" absorbs mind & world! The result? An epidemic OF loneliness, anxiety, depression, infidelity, confusion & suicide. Drug use/meds is rampant but is proven not the answer to peace of mind, balance and feeling/being authentic. We cannot be authentic with anyone else if we're confused about our Self! Uncertainty of our Core Values causes anxiety, shame, depression anger at self & others.
