I love to help people ask ‘the big questions’—Who am I? How can I be my best self in the world? What is my purpose? What will my legacy be? These questions arise in times of transition such as graduation from college, choosing a career, in mid-life, at retirement, or when contemplating our mortality. Some people have spent years in a religious or spiritual community whose beliefs or practices they can no longer support. Some have trauma due to these experiences and benefit from having a witness and guide as they learn to choose their own values and priorities.
I work with young, middle-aged, and older adults. I help you take a larger perspective, healing from the past, exploring your purpose, and drawing on your strengths. But if you are in emotional pain right now, we’ll use CBT strategies and somatic skills from a trauma-informed approach to help you feel better before going deeper.
Many of us face painful uncertainty due to current events. You may feel anxious, lonely, or very stressed due to racism, financial pressures, or worry for the country’s future and for the earth. If you need a compassionate guide through these strange times, let’s schedule a free, 20-min. call and see how I might be of help.

I specialize in working with people who have religious trauma after leaving a high-control/high-demand church or group. I've helped former evangelicals and others recover a sense of agency and define their own values. I help them learn to identify long-neglected needs, to name feelings for which they've been shamed, and to develop a sense of purpose that fits who they are becoming.
