Navigating life's complexities can often leave us feeling overwhelmed, but you don't have to face these challenges alone. I am committed to helping foster a space of empathy, understanding, and respect. My approach centers around listening to your experiences and feelings, aiming to connect with your underlying needs.

Please note my location. With 30+ years of practice in Anchorage, I appreciate the power of mindful listening with couples, individuals and groups. As a certified emotion focused therapist I find a respectful way of being present with others so their deep truth can be understood and assist them in finding their life forward energy. In our hurried culture our voices risk not being heard inside ourselves. We overwhelmed adults may find our vulnerability locked away, not even shared with our loved ones. It is a privilege to earn trust to share people's journey in a safe manner.

I enjoy working with individuals who are ready to take positive steps towards growth and healing. This may include: processing traumas; developing self-awareness; learning about your strengths; and/or changing behaviors, thoughts, coping mechanisms, or interpersonal patterns which are no longer working for you.

“The past is just the past,” they say. You’ve tried to let it go, ignore it, bury it away, but it still seems to haunt you. Growing up you saw the fights, cleaned up the messes, felt the pain of hurtful words, and covered up so many cuts and bruises. You did what you had to do to survive and got out as fast as you could. You were determined that your life would be different. And for the most part it is. Unfortunately, the emotional remnants remain; anxiety, feeling like you’re “not enough,” the disconnect from others...You’re ready to finally shed these struggles, but you need some help getting from here to the life you want.
