Positive change and growth relies on the ability to navigate powerful emotions with flexibility. Mind-body awareness, self-compassion and our naturally arising insight guide the way to healing, empowered action and renewed purpose. We all possess these transformative capacities. My approach combines leading clinical, holistic and mindfulness-based methodologies grounded in the power of compassionate dialogue to help clients achieve new states of emotional growth and wellbeing.​​ I am LGBTQ+ -affirming and committed to serving clients that reflect diversity in racial and cultural identity, gender, sexual orientation and life stage.
I specialize in helping clients find clarity through the shared human experiences of anxiety, grief and loss, career and major life transitions, clinician and family caregiver stress, post-traumatic symptoms, sleep dysregulation, high sensitivity/empathy/intuition, end-of-life and psycho-spiritual integration. Individualized and group mindfulness education.
My counseling style is client-centered, strengths-based and compassionate. I work well with clients seeking a balance between deep listening, insight and workable solutions. If you are seeking to explore, heal, grow, align with your values and goals, develop healthier behaviors and happiness habits, please reach out.
