Are you unhappy about where you are in life and fear others won't accept you for who you are? Do you feel as though you have to hide facets of yourself? Do you feel stuck and want to change? If so, you may find it helpful to connect with someone who has been through these feelings and understands the challenge in managing feelings of anxiety, stress, isolation, insecurity, and even depression. I understand the struggles with exploring one's identity and finding the confidence to love and value your unique self.

Angry? Irritated by - every - little - thing - they do, while also feeling like you’re overreacting? What would it be like to feel safe with your anger for the first time? I will help you create a relationship with this rage, your inner power, that feels creative, exciting, and is uniquely yours. You probably weren’t taught how to move the rage through and out of your body in a productive, healthy, and empowering way. Instead, you were likely told that you’re embarrassing the family with your outbursts. You suppressed all that energy down until it sucked you into depression and even suicidal thoughts. You felt like a freak.

* I am no longer accepting new clients* I believe the most profound change occurs within relationships. Whether that be the therapeutic relationship, a relationship with yourself, a partner, parent, child, or family member, relationships in all their forms have the ability to foster new ways we see and interact with ourselves and others. While relationships impact us, they do not define us. Each individual carries the strength within them to make the change they wish to see.

I believe that given the safety, support, and tools, we all have an innate capacity to heal and live full lives. Our brains and bodies are designed for this purpose, and my goal as a therapist is to empower clients through relational and body-based treatments to rebuild the relationship with themselves and others. I work with clients seeking support to heal from experiences of trauma, abuse, and loss, as well as those managing burnout, anxiety, and depression. I specialize in treating trauma-related disorders, including those developed following sexual and intimate partner violence, childhood abuse, and traumatic loss.

Personally and professionally, I believe that human relationships have the most capacity for damage and most capacity for healing. I practice under the ethos that the best indicator of successful therapy is the relationship built between therapist and client. Our unique relationship serves as a container to this time of your life and the issues that are ready to be seen, felt and metabolized. Within that container, you will be able to experience yourself within a safe relationship and know the felt sense of being connected to yourself while being witnessed by another.

I have have a lot of experience with anxiety, depression and OCD, as well as helping people with big life changes, self esteem, and relationship issues. Everybody is different, so in working together I will listen to you and what you need from me to help you the best. A big reason I decided to become a therapist due to the belief that if people are more connected and insightful about themselves—and how they impact the world—the world itself will become a better place.

I provide therapy and psychological assessment for individuals navigating life transitions, relationship challenges, loss, and meaning-making. Many of the people I work with seek to break patterns they struggle to change, often after previous therapy experiences. I specialize in working with aid workers, trauma survivors, and those returning from global assignments, helping them process moral injury, vicarious trauma, and re-entry stress. My work is informed by global mental health, shaped by my experience in humanitarian aid. I also conduct comprehensive evaluations for immigration, asylum, and forensic cases.
