I believe that clients are co-creators in the process. Healing and growth occurs when we are willing to share openly and work towards developing an authentic, therapeutic relationship. I have extensive experience with survivors of all types of trauma, relationship issues, domestic abuse, mood disorders, infertility issues, eating disorders, substance use, women's/men's issues & lifestyle changes. The therapeutic process will focus on helping you to re-discover & develop strengths, resiliency and coping skills. Join me as I create a safe space for you to dive into exploring the source of your current struggles and innate wisdom.

My approach is a results oriented, active, direct, and homework driven style. Addictions often originate from deeper underlying issues such as trauma/ PTSD, chronic pain, psychosis, anxiety, and depression. I want to help you accomplish -whatever- goals/values that are uniquely important to you. I genuinely want to help you put the hard work of therapy into achieving real growth. I am part of the neurodivergent/high functioning autistic community. Please scroll down to read my blubs about the evidenced based treatments I use for these struggles. Self compassion is powerful! Book in person (Tucson area) or zoom at my website.

I help clients increase feelings of safety within their body and their awareness of emotions in their body, and we process trauma from a place of felt safety.
My approach to working with clients is warm and collaborative. I believe our trust-building and mutual collaboration are foundational to the process of change. I take a non-pathologizing approach to mental health, seeking out the root of the issues at hand.

I work with anxiety, depression, low self-esteem, eating disorders, body image issues, complex trauma, PTSD, grief and relationship issues.
In a world where we are constantly experiencing trauma, both directly and indirectly, it can be difficult to identify how deeply different things in life affect us. I believe that the experience of feeling understood can be the catalyst for change and something that allows for healing to begin. I aim to provide a space of healing, openness and exploration for those things that you might otherwise suppress or carry with heaviness or judgment. Together, we can heal that unresolved stuff from the past and create skills to support you through future circumstances.

I have over 25 years of experience and specialize in the treatment of complex trauma.
Courageous independent adults who are curious about themselves and their life/family histories are an ideal fit for my services. It takes great bravery to enter into a therapeutic connection that is bound to spark insight and awareness. Therapy is a journey with an attuned other who can help guide you through self-exploration towards growth. Clients who would benefit from working with me include those who are interested in achieving a life-work-parenting-partnering balance, one that involves mindfulness, present-focus and an emphasis on physical well being. I work with you from a place of cultural awareness and respect.

I am an AEDP trained therapist and I help clients with PTSD, trauma, substance use, anxiety, depression, relationship issues, and adjustment to life transitions.
As a therapist, my mission is to provide a compassionate and non-judgmental relational context so that I can help my clients in the resolution of their profound sense of loneliness and feelings that "no one can understand their pain". Within the therapeutic relationship, I can help my clients in reviewing and correcting maladaptive strategies of self-protection, and in finding ways to feel safe in a world that feels unsafe. I believe therapy can help immensely in resolving emotional self-isolation, and in reconnecting with the resilience, potential, and motivation necessary to work at, and achieve personal aspirations.

I take a client-centered approach to therapy, with extensive training in Trauma, PTSD, Anxiety (including panic), Depression, and Later Life issues.
Is life feeling like a constant struggle for you? Navigating relationships, work, family, going through a tough transition? Any one of these can take so much out of any of us, leaving us confused, anxious, depressed, lacking direction. At some point, we are all faced with situations so challenging that we just need help to move through it. Having a safe person to truly listen, offer new perspectives, open new possibilities and/or help with solutions is so powerful. I became a therapist to serve specifically for these reasons and I believe that this kind of help, at a vulnerable time in life, can make all the difference in the world.

Unpacking uncomfortable feelings and responses around this first takes the courage to want to change. We are here for you to help unpack it all while navigating next steps.

I enjoy working with individuals interested in healing relational or developmental trauma. I am certified as a somatic experiencing practitioner and as a psychodynamic psychotherapist. I am also trained in equine therapy and utilize horses in individual sessions when appropriate as an adjunct to deepening body awareness and developing joyful connections to living beings. I am focused on positive interactions and stabilizing internal resources in a safe environment. Increasing awareness of the external environment through the senses and noticing how this impacts body sensations begins a process of self development through observation. The person begins to individuate from the trauma.

For 15 years, I have provided therapy to children, adults and families of varied backgrounds and experiences. I often work on addressing parent-child relationships, life transitions, emotional regulation, depression/anxiety and trauma where there has been abuse, violence and early childhood trauma. Play is the language of children and is an important part of working with kids and families. I value treatments that include cognitive-based skills and believe reflecting on the underlying meaning of behaviors which can help manage our responses. Whether utilizing play, art or talk, therapy can help us gain greater insight and growth.

If you are ready to get back to or become the person you are meant to be, let’s talk. Trauma, anxiety, and depression can all hold us back and keep us living in survival mode, but you are here for more than that. You are meant to realize your potential and your dreams, and therapy can help you knock down barriers to doing that. In my years as a therapist the most common issue I have encountered is that people are too hard on themselves, too unkind and unwilling to forgive. Just like a plant getting sunlight and water, we tend to thrive when treated with love and respect. Therapy can help you get there.
