Updated 1/5: Maybe things feel hard and heavy. You're not sure where to go from here. If you are seeking support with job loss/layoffs, loneliness, eating disorders, relationship issues, anxiety, depression, etc., I offer psychotherapy and mental health counseling for individuals; couples/pairs (pre/marital and relationship, as well as for roommates, friends, business partners, etc.); families with teens/adult children; and chosen family. You are welcome here, whether seeking therapy for the first time, or stepping down from a higher level of care. Together, we'll make a map toward healing.
Depending on your goals and needs, I might use Emotionally Focused Therapy (EFT), Dialectical Behavior Therapy/Radically-Open Dialectical Behavior Therapy (DBT/RO-DBT), Acceptance & Commitment Therapy (ACT), Parts work (e.g. Internal Family Systems/IFS), Somatic work, Existential Therapy, and Exposure & Ritual Prevention (ERP), among other therapies.
I don’t know what it’s like to be you, but I do know what it’s like to walk in the deep shadows of your own mind and heart and I know what it’s like to emerge, into the daylight, with a new sense of self. Maybe I’m the right person, at the right time, to walk alongside you. LGBTQIA+/Poly/ENM/Kink/Anti-Diet/HAES affirming

I am a therapist who will: be curious about and try to deeply understand your lived experience and what makes you, you; collaborate with you on new ways of being in the world (I see therapy as something we do together); challenge you and hold you accountable to your goals and values; own when I make mistakes and do my best to repair rupture with you; and continuously educate myself.

I am an integrative Relational-Cultural and emotionally-focused therapist, which is the fancy way of saying that I believe that human beings grow through relationships with others, and that I pull from other therapy modalities based on your needs and goals. We'll use the relationship we build together as a testing ground for new ways of being and as a basis for examining what's keeping you stuck.
