From a young age, I've always loved and been curious about people. I've always felt connected to and interested in others and their experiences. It is a calling for me. After having both positive and negative experiences with therapists in high school, I was confident that this is what I wanted to do-what I was meant to do! I will actively listen to what they're sharing and ask clarifying questions as needed. I will be fully present with them in session, with the intention of understanding as much as possible their emotional experience, inner thoughts, etc. I may summarize and/or reflect back what I heard and ask if it feels right.

I approach healing work from an integrative and holistic perspective. I utilize a number of modalities that are overall grounded in spiritual and depth psychology, humanistic, attachment based, gestalt, existential, and feminist therapy.

Do traumatic experiences cause you worry, anxiety, and regret? Do they intrude on your relationships, sleep, and enjoyment of life? Perhaps you've become adept at pushing down the memories and the feelings. But it's getting more and more difficult. They show up anyway, like an uninvited guest.

Seeking treatment can seem like a daunting task, from choosing the perfect therapist who also accepts your insurance, to doing the actual therapeutic work. My advice: filter your search by insurance & location first and go from there.

If you are on this site then you are probably hurting and frustrated. Are you seeking to rebuild your relationship, restore trust and enjoy each other again? It all comes down to communication and building a strong foundation. Relationships can bring us great joy, love and connectedness; however, they can also cause us great pain and frustration. Do you want your relationship to be great but can’t seem to communicate about what is important to you without an argument? Does it seem that your partner doesn’t hear you or understand and that even simple topics turn into disagreements? I believe I can help you achieve a breakthrough.

My approach is two-fold. I want to address the specific issues that have led you to therapy at this time of your life, and I will use therapeutic approaches that are compatible with your unique personality, problems and learning style.

Do you feel like anxiety is your baseline? Are you struggling with overthinking, decision paralysis, wondering if everyone is mad at you, and not sleeping well? Feeling overwhelmed, restless, and unsatisfied and sometimes feel like it’s all too much? Do you ever wonder if life is supposed to feel like one crisis after another? Now more than ever people are feeling anxious, overwhelm and uncertain about how they are supposed to manage their relationships, careers and their lives.
