I help folks cope with diabetes, anxiety and worry, stress and burnout, trauma & PTSD, eating disorders, and health concerns. In therapy, I'll help you Slow Down, understand what is keeping you stuck, move towards what is deeply important to you in life, and respond more flexibly to difficulties. I'm often a good fit for folks that have tried many things already and are looking for something different. I'm passionate about therapy that is creative, experiential, and goes beyond words and insight. I love working in-person and offer Nature Therapy to those who enjoy being outside - e.g., we can do sessions in a forest or on the beach!
I've lived with type 1 diabetes for over 20 years and this deeply informs my work as a therapist. Previously, I worked in high-acuity eating disorders and am trained in treating co-occurring physical and mental health challenges. I have extensive training in Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), Sandtray, and mindfulness practices.
I'm a kind, grounding presence and treat each of my clients like a Sunset - not a Math Problem. I try to enable growth and change through a warm approach grounded in compassion, curiosity, and highly personalized care. I offer a free consultation and would love the chance to connect with you!

I believe that physical health and mental health are inseparable. I've lived with type 1 diabetes for over 20 years, so I understand this intimately. In therapy, we'll be curious about the whole picture - e.g., vital signs, sleep, movement, food & eating, stress, thoughts, emotions, behaviors, life context, relationships, and how all of these variables interact.

ACT is my main approach, through which I'll help you connect with your values and take action, as well as learn skills for coping flexibly with difficult thoughts, feelings, and situations. I take a process-oriented, person-first approach, rather than a diagnosis-driven model. In alignment with ACT, I also offer Nature Therapy and Sandtray.
