My style of working is thoughtful and direct. I am committed to helping people discover and enhance their emotional capacity in order to create more satisfying lives. Through the transformative experience of being deeply understood by another in an authentic, safe and honest relationship, people can transform destructive patterns into more satisfying expressions of self.

To work with me is to consider seeing your life through the lens of rites of passage. My passion lies in initiating people into their magic & medicine. I work with folks navigating all sorts of life transitions and guide them in moving through the threshold that life is calling for. The alchemy of activism means our healing work is act of (re)evolution. I love working with healers in all their glory, catalyst creators, community tenders, disruptors, leaders who are looking to embody their seat, folks who are here to change their lineage in radical ways, and always people who are asking the questions that go beyond themselves.

Whether it’s stress, relationship problems, anger, burnout, or just feeling lost, we’ll figure out what’s getting in the way and what actually needs to change.

I believe therapy should feel like a deep and rich conversation. I am not the type of therapist who only sits and listens. I support my clients in managing anxiety, perfectionism, and people-pleasing; navigating burnout and compassion fatigue; reevaluating unwanted habits and ways of coping; building communication skills and setting boundaries to help relationships thrive; and getting unstuck to make big life decisions. I believe therapy can help you build the self-awareness and self-compassion it takes to make different choices that move you toward balance.

Psychotherapy can help when you are struggling with something specific, or when you are feeling concerned about where your life is going in general. There may be patterns that you tend to repeat and wish to change. Common concerns include relationships, work, anxiety, depression, grief, and childhood trauma. Depth therapy and Jungian psychoanalysis aim to go beyond symptom relief to unblock your capacity to grow into who you are uniquely meant to be.
