I view life as filled with opportunity for growth. Internal Family Systems therapy is a powerful way to grow your capacity to enjoy life and outgrow parts of yourself that protected you once but are no longer helpful. Parts caused by trauma, childhood events, life stressors or relationships. Are you an adult child of emotionally immature parents - with unmet needs you want to learn to meet? I teach skills to help you feel better quickly, and I also help you heal longer term patterns. We can clear painful memories from body, mind & spirit to create a healthy, integrated sense of self.

Reaching out and allowing somebody to help you sort through pain can be an intimidating process. I understand the courage it takes and because of this I believe in building a strong relationship based on trust. Not every therapist is a good match and I want to respect your time and finances. I offer a free 30-minute consultation to see what it would be like to work together. My goal is to provide a safe space for your story and to help you achieve healthy relationships and self-worth. I would be honored to be part of your healing process.

Clients love seeking me out for my direct & supportive interventions and resources to support them to evolve in and between our sessions.

I love the imagery of a phoenix. Sometimes in life, it feels like we are burning up due to circumstances beyond our control. What we are left with is a pile of ashes. But from those ashes, I believe we all have the power to change and grow into these beautiful creatures, free to make our lives what we want them to be. My goal is to work with and stand by you through whatever the flames and ashes of your life are, and to help empower you as you learn and grow into your own version of a phoenix, whatever that looks like for you.

Ultimately, I support clients to find healthier, more honest & direct ways to relate to themselves, their partners, and the world.
