I enjoy working with diverse groups of individuals and have extensive experience treating adolescents, adults,
women
, and the LGBTQIA communities.
The journey of life is filled with wonder, but it can also be completely overwhelming. We can feel consumed by our trauma and emotions, play out patterns of behavior over and over, and let our inner critic run wild. Sometimes it feels like we are just existing rather than fully living. Allowing yourself to be vulnerable with another person can be daunting. Whatever has brought you to therapy - I encourage you to come as you are. There is nothing I have not heard before. In turn, I promise my clients unconditional acceptance, genuine connection, and a therapeutic foundation built on trust as we embark on this brave journey together.

I have also been trained to use "alternative" labs for adrenal health, male/
female
hormones, neurotransmitters, gastrointestinal issues, nutrient deficiencies and more.
As a registered Naturopathic Doctor, I am interested in treating the whole person and discovering the underlying cause of imbalance or dis-ease. I address not only mental-emotional wellness, but the physical body as well. I provide safe, effective alternatives to medications for people who do not want to be on them or when they no longer work. If you have been through the medical model and are tired of not feeling heard or being offered treatments that don't work, there is a solution. I will customize a treatment plan to meet all of your individualized needs.

If you are ready for real change in your life and are tired of being stuck in the same routine, same fears, or same unhelpful thought patterns, then we will work very well together. Many of the clients who see me for therapy have experienced excessive worry and hyper-vigilance, racial trauma, hopelessness, suffered from the aftereffects of a traumatic event, or have had difficulty connecting in relationships with others. I love working with
women
who are currently experiencing the wild changes and challenges of motherhood, particularly helping
women
find their selfhood during the pre and postpartum journey.

No one gets through life alone. No matter how much you subscribe to the "pull yourself up by your boot-straps" method, at a certain point, that breaks down and you're forced to ask for help. Maybe it’s the stress of daily living or difficult experiences from the past. Maybe it’s patterned behaviors you just can’t seem to change or overwhelming emotions. Whatever it is, your wellbeing and relationships are suffering and all you want to do is feel good, feel alive, and be happy. Simple, right?

Hearing people's stories is what I truly love to do. That is why I became a counselor. That is what I would want to spend my time doing even if it wasn't my career. Human beings are complex, that is true. And we are beautiful in endless ways, good when all is stripped away, and valuable beyond anything else in all of creation. To know and be known is one of the sweetest experiences of life. Along with being loved and securely belonging to other human beings. I hope my work gives these kind of gifts.

You’ve been hit hard by life. Your emotions are overwhelming at times. You’re frozen by indecision and self-doubt. You’re doing well in your career but you’re not being noticed or promoted because you can’t seem to make relationships work. You have trouble with trust and intimacy. You experience your world through the lens of negativity, hopelessness, and pessimism. You know your history of abuse, of being bullied or shamed has created the high degrees of anxiety you feel around people and fear of being judged. You know you need therapy though you know talking about your past has never helped, and yet you keep trying.

It is no secret that stress, unhappiness, and insecurity can hold us back in life. Do you or someone you know feel trapped or helpless, unable to overcome life's daily challenges? I can provide valuable evaluation, support, and/or cooperative training in ways to cope. I work with a wide range of patients including children (10+), adolescents, adults, and families, and because I recognize that finding a therapist can feel daunting, I offer a free consultation appointment to discuss how I might support potential patients and families in healing. Feel free to contact me by phone or e-mail.

Therapy is becoming more normalized in a way that it wasn’t for your parents or grandparents. This is an opportunity to explore your own wants/needs, boundaries and personal values that drive your life daily. I focus on three main modalities of mindfulness, somatic experiencing and EMDR. I start every session with a 5-10min mindfulness meditation. Secondly, somatic experiencing is feeling your emotions through physical sensations. Lastly I am trained in EMDR which can be helpful for a range of symptoms from anxiety, depression to PTSD. I also offer psychedelic/ entheogens intention setting and/or integration therapy.

If you are struggling with addiction, chances are you are also dealing with another mental health issue - anxiety, depression, mood or personality disorder. It is important to address the whole picture - not just the addiction. Learning actual skills that can assist you in your daily life to handle stress, take control of your emotions, deal with relationships and become more mindful will make recovery easier to obtain and more meaningful. I am here to assist you along your journey.

My role as a therapist is not independent, but a partnership. I am a collaborator and facilitate exploration as a means of helping to determine what best serves you and helping you to empower yourself to make desired changes. I understand that it can be awkward or stressful to make the call or take the step to talk to someone. I will do my best to help you feel safe and comfortable with me. Confidentiality is sacred. If you should find that I am not the therapist for you I will help you find someone who would be a better fit for your needs.

I guide you towards radical acceptance, so you can harmonize and the heal the stories of yourself and your experiences.

Is online therapy a good option?
Therapy conducted online or over the phone can be just as effective as in-person therapy, as long as there is a strong alliance between the client and the therapist. To find a therapist who provides telehealth services to clients in your area, click “Online Therapy” on the directory homepage and search by your city or town or your zip code.
What’s the difference between a psychologist, a therapist, and a counselor?
Therapists, psychologists, and counselors are all licensed mental health professionals. In the United States, psychologists have earned a doctoral degree. The terms “therapist” and “counselor” are used somewhat interchangeably, but generally therapists offer longer-term, mental health care, while counselors offer shorter-term care that may focus on one domain, such as marriage, career, or academic challenges.
What type of therapist is right for me?
Clients should consider factors such as insurance coverage and their primary reason(s) for seeking therapy to determine the type of professional best suited to their needs. Someone struggling with mental health challenges such as depression or anxiety, for example, may wish to seek out a clinical psychologist, psychologist or therapist, while someone navigating career obstacles or marital upheaval may benefit from seeing a counselor who can offer short-term, targeted support.
Is everyone in the Psychology Today Therapy Directory a licensed therapist?
The Psychology Today directory lists providers who offer legitimate mental health services to the public, including psychologists, psychiatrists, social workers, and counselors. Many have been licensed by the country or state where they practice; providers whose license or primary credential has been verified by Psychology Today are signified by a “Verified” symbol. Some clinicians or organizations provide services for which their state or country does not offer licenses, such as pastoral counseling. They may be selectively included without the “Verified” seal.
What type of therapy is right for me?
The type of therapy best suited to a particular individual depends on several factors, including their primary reason for seeking therapy, their preferred timeline (some therapy types last for a set number of sessions, while others are open-ended), and their personality and preferences—some may prefer a more structured approach. For many individuals, multiple types of therapy could provide a good fit.
Is online therapy cheaper than in-person therapy?
Many therapists charge the same amount for online therapy as they do for in-person therapy—though clients may still find this cost-effective if it cuts down on their transportation costs. Health insurance plans often offer equivalent coverage for online and in-person therapy; indeed, in many places, they are legally required to do so. Text-based or on-demand therapy apps may be cheaper than traditional one-on-one psychotherapy; however, the practice may be less effective and is not likely to be covered by insurance.
