**NEW CLIENTS - Please email me** No one deserves to live in pain. For therapy to work, you need three things: curiosity about yourself and your interactions with others, an authentic connection with your therapist, and concrete, practical tools and skills to promote real and lasting change. My job is to facilitate an understanding of what is causing you pain and getting in your way of creating your best life. As your therapist, I don’t “just listen.” I use an integrative approach, combining several modalities to create the most effective treatment for each client. I practice remote therapy with individual adults.

My work is influenced by the thought of existentialist philosophers and psychologists who speak compassionately to a profound and uniquely human dilemma—the quest for meaning in the face of suffering. Psychotherapy provides a safe and intimate space in which we might expand our capacity to bear suffering and to find meaning within and through it. Depth psychology proposes that the psyche consists of both conscious and unconscious thoughts, impulses, fantasies, and ideas. Symptoms (of depression, anxiety, addictions, etc.) are more than painful indicators of psychopathology.

Feeling stuck? Maybe you are burnt out, feeling overwhelmed with anxiety or grief, and your relationships are suffering. I help people in their 20's and 30's deal with the major transitions of this time of life: shifting family dynamics, partner relationships, health crises, and the scramble to actualize an authentic and meaningful life. Sometimes we think we should be able to figure it out on our own, or that our problems aren’t as bad as they could be - and we find ourselves hesitant to take the next step. If you are brave enough to give yourself the gift of support, I will meet your vulnerability with compassion and curiosity.

Embarking on your healing journey is no small task. It is my hope that you feel seen, safe and emboldened in your connections through our work together. You can expect me to be honest, compassionate, humorous, and deeply curious with you on your journey towards you and your family’s goals. I come with a socio-emotional approach, which looks at the ways our relating to others and ourselves has been shaped by culture and context. Slowly untangling our own stories from the stories we’ve been told about who we are is done through a steady, gentle, compassionate and collaborative rhythm.

I am passionate about helping clients heal and transform through an eco-art therapeutic approach that combines art, nature and play. Working and playing in a natural setting, I offer a variety of mediums to encourage growth, both indoors and out. This allows an emergent and imaginative approach to therapy that adapts to fit the unique needs of each individual, couple, family and group. Moving from sand tray to clay, collage to art journaling, clients can walk outdoors on paths that meander past waterways and through old growth forests. With labyrinths, meditative walks and an enormous sound chamber, I offer many creative outlets.

Life can sometimes leave us feeling overwhelmed or hopeless. Everyday stressors and relationship losses can leave you feeling disconnected from others, anxious or depressed.

I use a nonjudgmental collaborative approach and also encourage clients to move toward change and healing - we are in this together.

I'm once again welcoming new clients. If you are experiencing anxiety, depression, fatigue, or overwhelming emotions, I encourage you to reach out to me. I'm dedicated to helping you minimize and manage stress, understand and navigate your emotions, and develop more effective strategies for these challenging times. I'll pay close nonjudgmental attention to both what is voiced and what lies beneath the surface, responding with empathy, sincerity, and insightful guidance.

Do you find yourself repeatedly questioning who you are and what you are doing? Are you left wondering why you feel so bad when so much of your life looks so good on the surface? Or maybe you and your partner are finding yourselves being driven further and further apart by the same conflict. For the individuals and couples that I work with, therapy is a place to manage these feelings, better understand the patterns that lead to them and what they are telling us. With reflection the intensity of anger, sadness, anxiety or disappointment can fade and we can learn to move toward action in our lives and connection in our relationships.

We can never be fully prepared for how life changes once we have children. Learning how to be a parent without losing other important relationships and parts of ourselves can be even more challenging if we’re dealing with a traumatic birth, unexpected medical diagnoses, or an increase in anxiety, overwhelm, or anger. I am a therapist who listens closely and with curiosity, who will support you in processing loss and rebuilding your sense of self and your relationships. With humor and compassion, I can guide you in strengthening your confidence and identity as a parent and a partner.
