My name is Jonathan and I am passionate about working with people who are experiencing anxiety, relationship challenges, or are currently navigating life transitions. I am lit up by working with clients that feel ready for change, even if they're not sure what the path to change looks like yet. If you'd like support in identifying your values, establishing healthy boundaries or trialing evidence-based ways to quiet down an anxious mind, I hope you'll consider reaching out.

Depression, anxiety, conflict or life transitions can leave us feeling stuck and overwhelmed. Therapy can, and should, be a safe and collaborative relationship where we work through the complications of life and relationships to find a more hopeful, rewarding and loving experience of the world. I want you to feel active in your therapy as we work toward gentle healing and personal growth. In addition to working with individuals, couples and families, I offer retreats, groups and am the co-creator of Her Table Wealth and Wellness which combines therapy with financial coaching to help women truly level up.

Acceptance might be the first step to change, but change is hard. I aim to create a supportive, holistic, empowering, and safe setting to process and understand what is specifically challenging for you. Often, my clients feel like they “don’t belong,” stuck in unwanted behaviors or looking to understand themselves better. I believe by attuning compassionately to our bodies and minds, as well as each other, we can sense what needs to change and heal. Also, I consider myself a very real person in the therapy space, which often includes understanding, laughter, radical acceptance, forgiveness, and open and honest communication.

If you notice you feel “stuck” changing negative thoughts, find you want to improve your relationships, or recognize that a traumatic history is impacting your life today, you don’t need to navigate these experiences alone. I also hold a special place for new parents doing their best to maintain balance and adjusting to their new role.

New Group - See below! Your inner critic can make you see yourself through a cruel funhouse mirror, where all you can see are the parts of you that you don’t like. You may have had past experiences - in relationships, your family, school, or society - that left you feeling like there's something wrong with you. Maybe you’ve been told you’re “too sensitive” or “too much,” and now you tell yourself those things on repeat. You may struggle with listening to and trusting your feelings, intuition, or body, and you long for more confidence & self-trust. My clients are people who want to go deep (even if a part of them is also afraid to!).

As a licensed psychologist and Jungian analyst, I gently proceed at your pace as we explore what is happening in your life--experiences and your feelings about them-- in search of meaning and the potential for the transformation of depression, anxiety, and relationships. Finding meaning opens an individual to self-acceptance, transformation, authenticity, and renewed energy for life and relationship.

*NOT ACCEPTING NEW CLIENTS* There are many reasons people seek therapy. Most likely, you're here because you're feeling out of balance in some aspect of your life. You may be looking for better ways to cope with depression or anxiety, change patterns that lead to unhealthy behaviors or relationships, or heal from a difficult or traumatic experience. Therapy can also help you gain insight about yourself, increase your sense of confidence, or help you explore a new life path with courage and intention. My hope is to provide support, tools, and encouragement to help you find greater balance, authenticity, and overall well-being.

There are many paths to wellness. People enter therapy to address a wide range of concerns, from anxiety, crisis, depression, trauma, and shame. Others are exploring more about themselves, relationships, reflecting upon past patterns, and developing new strategies for living. My intention is to create an authentic, non-judgmental, safe environment in which I can join you on your journey of self-compassion, exploration, and growth. I am passionate about living in a world that is safe for all. I strive in my practice to be sensitive to concerns regarding intersectionality, marginalization, and oppression.

Welcome! I work with individuals, couples and families. A basic guiding principle in my work is that, when we are able to really see and accept where we are, and who we are, we begin to heal and grow. I see therapy as a sacred space, a place of safety in which we can allow ourselves to go deeper into our experience of ourselves, the other, and of our life as a whole. There is a trust I have found in this process, that if we attend to what comes up in this place, it will lead us through.
