Hi, I’m someone who finds joy in creativity, compassion, and connection—with people, animals, and the natural world.
Art has always been a deep passion of mine; whether I’m painting, drawing, or exploring new mediums, it’s how I express what words sometimes can’t. That led me to art therapy.
I’m also someone who thrives on helping others. I believe small acts of kindness can create big ripples. My love for animals runs just as deep.
When I’m not creating or helping, you’ll most likely find me outdoors. Nature is my happy place—whether I’m hiking, camping, gardening, or just watching the sunset, it recharges and inspires me.

I love working with people. I tend to be a really good listener, love to brainstorm, and am somewhat directive. I am very practical and real. I enjoy very much hearing and working to understand situations and patterns in a person's life, where are they repeating themselves, and how many ways are there to break up patterns that are not serving us. I am keen to see habits and places that shut us down, and like to work on and practice how that may shift, with much compassion on how scary that can be. I appreciate the vulnerability it takes to come in and share intimate and hard details about ourselves.

Does it too often feel overwhelming, hopeless and exhausting? Is there any path forward? Yes, I believe there is. Living with past trauma, grief or loss is devastating when we feel alone and stuck. When it feels like your story is already written in stone. This is not the case! Together we can recreate ways that have served you before, explore new perspectives, and rewrite your story. I have the training and knowledge to help you move past these feelings. My sessions are empathetic, curious and non judgmental. I offer support and space as your copilot exploring paths to healing. We can overcome and restore vitality to your life!

My ideal client is a high-functioning individual or couple who appears successful on the outside but feels anxious, disconnected, or unfulfilled on the inside, especially in their intimate or relational life. They may be navigating sexual concerns, desire discrepancies, intrusive thoughts, relationship stress, or identity shifts during major life transitions. They want more than coping skills; they want depth, discretion, and a sex-positive, trauma-informed therapist who understands both emotional and relational dynamics. Their goal is lasting regulation, authentic connection, and a grounded sense of self-trust.

“If you don't become the ocean, you'll be seasick every day.” – Leonard Cohen.
Life asks a lot of us. We’re constantly navigating waves: expectations, emotions, relationships, the pressure to hold it all together. Maybe you find yourself getting swept up or constantly bracing for impact. But change isn’t about learning to fight the tide; it’s about remembering you are the tide. That doesn’t mean passivity, it means using your agency effectively. Therapy can be a space to reconnect with the deeper currents within yourself and build trust in your ability to ebb, flow, rest, and rise with strength.

I have 35 years of experience helping a wide variety of people find their way to living a richer and more satisfying life. I have a deep respect for the mind and emotional life and believe it's difficult to change without resolving the internal conflicts (which are often out of our awareness) that lead to emotional distress, unwanted behaviors or physical symptoms.

Life is full of changes and challenges that can feel overwhelming at times, leaving us stuck in cycles of fear, doubt, and uncertainty. Often, we replay the same thoughts over and over in our minds, hoping for a solution but feeling trapped instead. It’s easy to lose sight of the strength and potential within ourselves. Helping others through these moments means creating a safe space to explore those feelings. Breaking free from unhelpful patterns and embracing new perspective, we can move forward and become the best version of ourselves- stronger, more resilient, and ready to navigate life with purpose.

Non judgement and unconditional acceptance are the cornerstones of my practice. My strength is looking at each client's issues as opportunities for learning. Body centered education, teaching how emotional feelings become feelings in the body, is emphasized. Learning from my client's current awareness is the goal in any session. My work is non-religious but Spiritual. My intention is to have each client lose the need for ongoing therapy. I have been successful in helping hundreds of individuals. I see adults, teens, couples and groups.

I work with people who are seeking more clarity, security, ease, and intention in how they show up in relationships, work, and within themselves. Many are navigating internal pressure, leadership demands, relationship or workplace conflict, emotional patterns that no longer serve them, or a transition that calls for grounded confidence, deeper self-trust, and meaningful change.
We work at the intersection of insight and action — exploring patterns, nervous system responses, attachment instincts, and communication habits, and translating them into steady confidence, secure connection, and intentional behavior.

I have found that in therapy, the individual has the opportunity to become more mindful and self aware, which can better serve the person to live more deeply, with more knowledge, and with more happiness. In therapy, the client has the potential to access the wisdom of psyche, from which the individual can achieve positive changes in his or her life. Through being aware of patterns and habits of one's past, the client can make transformations in order to be more mindful through one's life.

I work best with clients who are insight-driven and looking to resolve/integrate long-standing patterns that are no longer serving them. Awareness is the first step, then connection to nodal points of suffering. The integration work is largely effected through self-compassion.
