It’s no secret. Many boys hate the idea of therapy or even just talking about their feelings. I’ve been working almost exclusively with boys (ages 5-18) and their families for over 15 years. If your son and family feel overwhelmed or distant from each other, I take a fresh look at your family’s unique strengths and build on these to work through conflict, reconnect, and re-establish joy as a daily practice. My work is driven by the latest research in neurobiology.

I incorporate many modalities but my base is in psychodynamic/relational therapy. This is a therapeutic approach that focuses on the interpersonal relationships and dynamics of an individual (I also explore the family system). This type of therapy emphasizes the importance of relationships in shaping an individual's well-being and mental health. Relational therapy aims to help clients explore and understand how their past and current relationships impact their thoughts, feelings, and behaviors. By examining patterns of interaction, communication styles, and attachment styles, clients can gain insight into their relational struggles.

Adulting is already hard enough; throw in infertility, postpartum depression/anxiety, pregnancy following loss (heIlo, anxiety!), loss/grief/bereavement, trauma, relationship/communication issues, boundaries and family conflict and now you've got discomfort, unpleasant feelings, disconnection and stress. While we may not be able to change all of the obstacles in your life, we can work collaboratively to adjust expectations, reinforce coping skills, strengthen resilience, improve communication skills, set boundaries, process trauma and elicit clarity and direction. (We are a boutique group Telehealth practice- warm & fuzzy).

I am a seasoned clinician with 30+ years of clinical experience. I have a general practice, working with individuals presenting with anxiety, depression, life challenges/transitions, emotional neglect/trauma, and more. In addition, I specialize in: 1) the performing arts, working with performers and other creatives, and 2) substance use/abuse/addiction and recovery. I work with individual adults seeking help/support for themselves, and individuals affected by these issues and environments.

Some of us who need extra support have a hard time getting to appointments precisely because we are stressed out, ill, or overwhelmed. I travel to bring the support you need straight to the comfort of your home. Individual therapy sessions take place masked or outdoors at your home, as well as via videoconferencing.

Do the “shoulds” dictate your every move? Are you a “people pleaser” putting the needs and wants of others before your own? Do you constantly take care of others at the expense of yourself? Do you frequently second guess or doubt yourself? Doing these things means you ignore your own wants, needs and values. Living out of alignment with yourself leads to feeling lost, discontent, anxious, low self-esteem, disconnected, unfulfilled, regret, resentment, or grief. Let's find ways for you to live more in alignment with who you truly are so you can experience relief and feel more confident, grounded and fulfilled.

I work with individuals, couples and families. As a psychotherapist, my intention is to build a relationship of inquiry that not only allows for healing of the past, but also facilitates bringing your fullest self forward by creating an environment where you feel safe, supported and well resourced. My style is relational and trauma-informed, warm and direct. I am passionate about understanding how you’ve learned to adapt to your environment by honoring the strategies you’ve used to survive. By looking at your past experiences we can better understand the ways you are struggling today.

Choosing to see a therapist is about you wanting to make some changes in yourself or in your life. The most important job I have as your therapist is to provide you with a non-judgmental space to explore your issues, your feelings and to help you find a solution that will ultimately make you feel better.

I provide support to individuals, couples and children who want a sense of meaning, authenticity and agency in their lives. Challenges I work with are trauma( PTSD & CPTSD), anxiety, depression, relationship issues, identity issues, mens issues, ADHD/Autism/neurodivergence, eco-anxiety and psychedelic integration. I help couples recognize repeating patterns, substituting defensiveness with clear vulnerable communication, and strengthen intimacy.

If you’ve found your way here, your world may feel upside down and out of control. It's possible your body feels the same. Many of the perimenopausal women I work with are in the throes of mood fluctuations, vacillating between anxiety, sadness and rage. Some report brain fog, insomnia, and other physical challenges. And then there’s the existential crunch of entering a new phase of life and managing the personal, interpersonal dynamics and social pressures that go along with midlife. However you feel, whatever you think about this transition is okay. There is no right way to navigate perimenopause and I am here to help.

I specialize in working with the queer/LGBTQIA+ community, eating disorders, and severe mental illness such as bipolar disorder. I also work with those dealing with general life stressors, people seeking to improve their relationship with money, and those recovering from high control groups. You may feel anxious or depressed, that your old ways of doing things are not working anymore. You may feel overwhelmed and like you could use a supportive guide in facing life's challenges. In our sessions, we can explore all of this and more in a supportive, safe, and authentic environment. It is an honor to meet you.
