I enjoy supporting individuals who feel misunderstood or marginalized. I like helping people gain a better understanding of themselves and their patterns and how understanding themselves better can lead to positive changes and improved satisfaction in life. I find working with trauma, neuro-diversity, and relationship issues fascinating and I have a strong passion to help others.

Life is a series of unavoidable challenges and triumphs, sorrow and joys. Encountering difficulty does not mean we are on the wrong path, nor that there is something wrong with us that needs to be fixed. It simply means that we are alive and have something to learn about ourselves and from life. Often it means that old ways of being are no longer working for us. Change can shake free some of our deepest fears and dysfunctional patterns, but it also provides opportunities for new and beautiful growth. When we feel supported, we are better able to navigate change. And when we change as individuals, we help shift the world!

Don't know which way to turn? I'm convinced that part of you DOES know. If you're depressed, anxious, frustrated, confused, or in emotional pain, I will sit with you in that place with love until you hear your own inner wisdom guide you. I will help you access that knowledge through focusing your attention on your emotional body, listening to your unique story, and in many other ways holding a mirror up to YOU. We'll look at unhelpful mental habits you've picked up to survive in this world, and figure out what would work better.

I work with children 2-10 years old who need support coping with stressors in their life: family changes, grief/loss, trauma, school/peer challenges that result in symptoms of anxiety, depression or aggression. Children show us they are struggling through their behavior and my role is to help identify and unravel the feelings under the behavior. I utilize play based therapy, art therapy, and therapeutic books to validate and process feelings. Together we explore a variety of coping strategies, including sensory materials, music making and mindfulness. Treatment is individualized to each child based on age and presenting symptoms.

I help folks dealing with stress, depression, anxiety, trauma, chronic health problems, and relationship issues of all kinds. My clients tend to be creative, philosophical, or intellectual people, and often (like myself) were raised in more than one culture. While what brings people to therapy is usually a stressful event or persistent problem, beyond just helping to relieve their suffering in the short term, my hope is that they discover through our work a lasting satisfaction that comes from taking the time to review their lives carefully and understand themselves more deeply.

A wise man once said that all life is relationship. Indeed, we all want to be seen, valued and supported. Connection with ourselves and others is also the most challenging aspect of being human. Often we do not receive the skills to create safe connections or have had experiences that leaves us reluctant to reach out. We can be left feeling alone, anxious, and depressed. We may struggle with communication skills and habits that undermine us and leave us feeling dissatisfied with ourself and our relationships.

You’re tired of beating yourself up. Nothing you do ever feels good enough. You are always trying to do everything “right” because that's what you're supposed to do. But it really feels like an incredible amount of stress, doubt and exhaustion. Wouldn’t it be nice to feel like you aren’t under the constant pressure of your own mind spinning its negative thoughts about yourself? What if you could just relax and be yourself without worrying about living up to other people’s expectations?

Finding safety and the conditions in which to explore all aspects of your experience are vital components in the therapeutic process. The introduction of art, play, and somatic therapies may provide additional ways to bring creativity to the exploration of the material at hand.
I work with children and adults and I specialize in exploring and reconnecting to one's core self. Trauma, illness, and anxiety can disrupt this essential connection - it can be regained.

I believe that our birthright is joy. To really experience the truth of these words means that we need to reclaim our own authenticity and vibrancy, in an age when many of us have fallen deeply out of love with ourselves. We are faced with an extraordinary choice; either we suffer or we grow. To face our own challenges requires a radical honesty and the ability to perceive ourselves as catalysts for change. By learning to trust our innate potential, we can access a vitality that is truly life-saving.

Pregnancy and the postpartum period can be a joyous, fulfilling time for some women. For many others, it is riddled with feelings of depression, anxiety, and confusion. These stressful emotional experiences can be unexpected and unfamiliar, or they can be a return of past symptoms; whatever the case, they interfere with a woman's ability to function and experience daily fulfillment. As a Psychologist and member of Postpartum Support International, I aim to instill hope in women who are suffering that these symptoms are temporary and treatable.
