If problems seem overwhelming, if a history of trauma impacts your current life, if family relationships are challenged, if you are considering divorce, if substance dependence has overshadowed your life, if you have questions related to gender or sexual identity, I would like to help.
The quest to live authentically is challenging but ultimately transformative. With hard work and supportive professional guidance, clients have the opportunity to examine persistent, troubling patterns without judgment or shame, and in doing so create space for growth and possibility. I work with clients age 6 to end of life -- individuals, partners, and families -- to explore individual and relational challenges that may lead to feeling depressed, anxious, or "stuck." I offer support with life transitions, including separation and divorce. My work is LGBTQ+ affirmative, culturally sensitive, trauma-informed, confidential.

A few strategies I draw on frequently include Internal family systems (IFS), mindfulness, acceptance based and self compassion therapies.
In sessions, I work to create a space for clients that allows for exploration and discovery of themselves and their internal/external worlds. By approaching the journey of healing and transformation through deep listening and curiosity, I help bring about clarity without shame or judgment where there are blocks or stuckness. When invited, I work within archetypal and mythic frames, holding the collective context of suffering and healing. I work with adults, college students and teens and children. When working with children, I lean into play and art/expressive therapies that help the child access their emotional worlds.

Together, we will move at your pace to address areas of difficulty that might trouble you at work, in school, in your relationships, in your family life, or elsewhere.
So much of life--its changes, its challenges, its day-to-day stressors--can feel overwhelming at times. This overwhelm can create feelings of stuckness, aloneness, or hopelessness that inhibit us from living the lives we wish to live. The wonderful news is these are not permanent conditions. I believe deeply in the healing potential of therapy to free us from emotional overwhelm, reconnect us with our inherent power and inner peace, and grow us in profoundly energizing ways.

Family Therapy
What do family therapists do?
A family therapist facilitates the process of understanding and improving how a family functions. The therapist will help family members develop empathy for one another. They’ll seek to understand existing patterns, misunderstandings, and conflicts that arise, in order to help the family arrive at a realistic, unified understanding and develop the coping skills they need to build stronger relationships.
How long does therapy for families take to work?
Therapy manifests differently in every family; a common time frame is 12 weekly sessions, but some families may see improvement after just a few weeks. Families should discuss their goals with the therapist at the beginning of the process and periodically revisit those goals to assess their progress together.
How can you encourage a family member to attend family therapy?
You can encourage family members to attend therapy by expressing with both love and concern the challenges you see and explaining how a therapist could help the family navigate those challenges together. An outside perspective can help everyone feel heard, get on the same page, and develop new skills. If family members are still hesitant, it may be helpful to emphasize that family therapy is short-term—it won’t last forever.
Is therapy for families effective?
Family therapy can significantly improve family dynamics and relationships. Research suggests that family therapy can help individuals understand their role in the family, communicate and solve problems together, reduce conflict and draw boundaries when necessary, and develop coping skills for stressors, major life changes, and mental or physical illnesses within the family.
