On the road to your best and brightest self, it is expected you will take some new turns. I am here to assist you on your journey. Maybe you need help listening to your internal compass and clarifying your direction...or maybe I can help you clear obstacles from your path. Whatever it is, a new adventure awaits. Let's go! I especially enjoy working with clients who are self-reflective, who want to deepen their understanding of themselves, and who are actively seeking more satisfying lives.
I integrate psychodynamic and cognitive-behavioral theories, helping you to explore the origins and sociocultural context of an issue, and then identify practical solutions to address it. I listen deeply to help clarify conflicts and patterns that get in the way of progress. I also use energy work to treat trauma, anxiety, and to facilitate rapid change.
Are you ready to get on the road to a better you? Let's talk.

In sessions, I typically blend talk therapy with energy work for the most optimal results. Energy work includes tapping and other modalities that work directly with the body through a "bottom-up" approach to reduce unwanted symptoms. It helps calm and re-wire the nervous system. It is effective with anxiety, trauma, phobias, and depression.
