I consider it a profound honor to witness human beings' capacity to become more authentic, liberated versions of themselves. My experience is that healing and transformation take place only in relationship, and that the therapist-client relationship provides a unique opportunity for connection, reflection, and change. I help individuals and couples co-create a space where they can process the heavy burdens that seem to be getting in the way- grief or loss, low self-esteem, ambivalence about what is next, or pain from broken relationships.

I have a dynamic, compassionate, emotion-focused approach that is personalized and relational. Depending on your goals, our sessions may incorporate cognitive-behavioral modalities, mindfulness, somatic techniques, Internal Family Systems, and/or creative exploration. I specialize in grief, attachment patterns, parenting, and religious trauma.
