Each person has walked a unique path throughout their life. I believe it is important to include these life differences in therapy, tailoring the therapeutic process to each individual’s needs. I also believe that you have the strength within you to be successful in reaching your goals. Together, we can further develop your own strengths as well as learn new skills in order to better manage problems you are currently facing.

What does "balance" and "safety" look like, feel like, and mean to you? I aim to provide a safe, healing space for clients, ensuring I take into account what "safe" and "balance" means to each individual in this current time and how that aligns with current needs, life events, and experiences. I predominantly work with the adolescent & adult populations, addressing anxiety, interpersonal relationships, relationship with food and body, personality traits/disorders, and life transitions. Sometimes, we need support repairing the foundation, which may include identifying our primary emotions and assessing the our current boundaries!

Hi, thank you for visiting. After 20 years as a therapist, I have found that people need a combination of support, insight, and challenging interactions to help them move past obstacles they are facing.

My style is interactive and relational, and employs uncovering family of origin dynamics, but also more practical, EMDR and Brainspotting methods to help make changes more quickly. My specialty is in all aspects of loss and grief, addictions, eating disorders, relationships, trauma and cancer.

Accepting New Clients. As an integrative and holistic therapist, I use shadow aspects of the individual and collective as tools for growth and understanding. I believe genuine healing comes from mindful awareness (being present to the experience of living), honoring emotions, cultural awareness, and curiosity. Relational approaches are at the foundation of my work, along with Depth Psychology (exploring how the unconscious shapes our thoughts and actions). When serviceable to explore, art and somatic based practices can be used, as these approaches offer rich sources of integration for artists and those in the healing profession.

Life's journey can be intense and difficult at times. Painful experiences can throw us into a downward spiral of sufferance. Being able to process our struggles allow us to turn them into catalysts for a meaningful life. I offer a space of sincere empathy and emotional safety to explore, learn and grow from discomfort and unease. Through my clinical training I have learned different modalities that allow me to connect with the deepest available information from my clients, and from there I use my knowledge and experience to empower them to find their own truth.

I believe that a life well examined is a life worth living. It's important to truly know yourself, and what your strengths and limitations are. My focus in treatment is based upon your goals for therapy, and what outcome you are hoping for. I have done much work within the LGBTQ + Community, and with couples across all ethnicities and orientations. Couples bring their own personal histories and experiences into the their relationships forming "unconscious contracts" with each other. I help them understand what those are between each other, in order to help them have a better understanding of why they chose each other.

I specialize in trauma, anxiety, women's issues, and teens. I also offer EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing) as a way to help clients heal from difficult life experiences. As a therapist, my goal is to provide a home for each person to be authentically who they are, without judgment. I provide support during the hard times, ask tough questions when necessary, and work with you to find practical solutions to your challenges. I am equally adept at comforting you in your tearful moments and providing some much needed laughter.

At different times in our lives we can feel stuck and struggle to find our way. We also live in a world that tends to make us feel abnormal if we aren’t happy, yet happiness can be elusive. I approach my work by meeting you where you are and assisting you on the journey of where you want to go. I collaborate with you to help you gain a better understanding of your true nature, your authentic self. The therapeutic process may include exploring the passages of your life; how emotions may limit your possibilities; and how the therapeutic relationship may deepen insight, improve coping skills and expand opportunities.

Family Systems Therapists
Family Systems therapists view problems within the family as the result not of particular members' behaviors, but of the family's group dynamic. The family is seen as a complex system having its own language, roles, rules, beliefs, needs and patterns. The therapist helps each individual member understand how their childhood family operated, their role in that system, and how that experience has shaped their role in the current family.
