Do you often feel isolated or overwhelmed? Do you constantly feel hurried? Our lives can present us with situations that cause us to question everything we thought we knew. Sometimes painful issues from your past like sexual abuse or other painful childhood experiences resurface. During these times, it can feel hopeless: causing anxiety or depression. Balancing these concerns among our busy lives causes stress and affect relationships with partners and children. Sometimes disagreements about how to parent also adds extra strain. You are not alone.

I believe we all have struggles to overcome throughout our lifetimes. If you are finding yourself in a challenging spot, whether that may include life transitions, loss, or emotional or physical difficulties, you may feel stuck. My goal is to help those with whom I work harness their inner strength and resources while learning new skills to get through whatever life may throw their way. As Thich Nhat Hanh, the Zen Buddhist spiritual leader, has said, "No mud, no lotus." I believe we can grow and blossom with the right support, no matter how dark things may seem.

You wake up each morning unsatisfied. You are aware that you are not living up to your full potential while anxiety, depression, trauma or stress are preventing you from realizing your true nature. Your relationships might feel inauthentic or limited and you are craving a deeper connection to yourself, others and life. You are thirsty for meaning, purpose, joy and peace and have noticed that your own thoughts and emotions are interfering with your experience. You are ready to learn how to forgive and love yourself and others while drinking in this life one moment at a time.

Ease, change, and joy are accessible. I know you can emerge from distress. I have seen radical growth-- again and again. I have found that these positive effects from any therapeutic intervention is highly accelerated by Ketamine treatment. So, instead of treating individuals for years with proven interventions, as is the standard in therapy, I now only use these healing interventions with clients at the Trauma Ketamine Clinic at Restoration Psychiatry, which I find significantly maximizes recovery, and minimizes duration of therapy, I pair Ketamine with Brainspottting, EMDR, and IFS for long-lasting healing.

As your therapist, my first offering would be creating a safe environment for you, whereby you know that you are being heard, respected, and validated. I respect and honor your wish to find someone to work with; a traveling companion for the road you are on. I know this first step is a hard one. I’ve been in your shoes too. Here is what I have learned: connection matters. Feelings matter. Knowing, that someone sees how hard it can be, matters. And yes, expertise matters. If you’ve gotten this far then you are likely wondering- could this person possibly be my/our therapist? Will she understand me/us? Will she care? Can she help?

I work with adults, teens and children as young as 3 years old. My work with children relies heavily on play and metaphor to unlock deeper layers of a child's psyche. Teenagers tend to need a safe, private space and having someone understand what they are going through and providing supportive listening and feedback. Adult therapy often explores strengths, core wounding, the private inner narrative, the stories we tell ourselves, and the energies we have carried with us possibly since birth. I find that often, seemingly maladaptive behaviors are simply ways we have learned to get our needs met and survive in a complicated world.

I specialize in providing therapy for individuals and couples who wish to make positive and lasting changes in their lives and relationships, grow and develop, for themselves and those they love. Human beings thrive when they feel genuinely loved; therefore, the most important thing I can offer you is a safe, compassionate and supportive space that allows each person to feel heard and validated. Do you feel more and more distant from your partner each time you continue to argue about the same old things without any change? In our sessions, you can expect to defuse the conflicts as we begin to understand what drives them.
