My psychotherapy practice is informed by formal training in contemplative and psychodynamic therapies, valuing health and wellness. My framework is a natural outcome of my own ongoing therapeutic work and developing spiritual practice, allowing me to more fluently move between the spiritual language of love and compassion and the psychological language of emotional distress and resiliency. The focus is on the here and now, understanding that your early developmental experiences affect your present feelings, mood, and behavior, often masking your natural capacity for well-being. Those experiencing life changes, challenges, transitions, such as loss and grief, anxiety, depression, trauma, divorce, work-related issues would benefit.

I have over 25 years of experience helping clients heal from anxiety, depression, grief, low self esteem, trauma, including PTSD and relational trauma, relationship challenges and self destructive tendencies. We will work together to understand how the challenges you are experiencing impact you, and how you can heal most effectively. Each client has a different way of healing, and so I customize my approach based on your individual needs. The approaches I use are trauma recovery, psychodynamic, sensorimotor, mindfulness, and AEDP among others. I am LGBTQ affirming and welcome clients of all ethnicities and cultural backgrounds.

A successful therapeutic relationship will be supportive, empowering, positive, but also difficult, at times uncomfortable, and often challenging. We rarely find ourselves seeking therapy when everything is comfortable and going well; instead, we are feeling helpless, unlovable, angry, isolated, and stuck in situations without solutions. Things that once made sense no longer do, we are confused, fearful, and just want to feel better. Imagine not feeling so afraid, understanding how/where your thoughts come from, or just simply being able to be happy; these are the expectations of our work together.
