I provide an eclectic approach, primarily utilizing behavioral, humanistic, psycho-spiritual, and inner child modalities – with a specialization in complex trauma, shadow work, generational patterns, and the journey to authenticity. My practice is person-centered, meaning that I’m a guide in your exploration of self – I may be nudging and pointing things out, but you, as the client, are ultimately leading where we go. My goal is to enrich and point out the positive traits that you already possess, and offer acknowledgment into aspects of yourself or your circumstances that you maybe haven’t seen yet.

The following therapies inform my practice: depth psychology, psychodynamic, humanistic and existential, Internal Family Systems (IFS parts work), ecopsychology, and mindfulness.
My imagination is captivated by how intricate and interconnected our stories are with the world around us, both in our intimate relationships and in the culture and society in which we live. Oftentimes these stories can weave patterns of disconnection between oneself and others, leaving us feeling stuck, and in need of care and tending. In my work, I offer a heartfelt and empathic space to explore your experience in the world. Whether it’s finding self-acceptance, moving through anxiety or depression, or navigating relationship challenges, I meet you where you’re at and help you find your inner resources for healing.

Welcome! I believe that one of the essential ingredients of change and transformative psychotherapy is the relationship between the individual and the therapist.

Making space to take care of ourselves is so important to good mental health. People often seek therapy when life has come to feel unmanageable. Coping mechanisms that served you well in the past may no longer work, yet are ingrained, often unconscious, and difficult to change. Whether your goal is to explore long standing issues, or to seek support with present themes, my goal as a therapist is to create a non-judgmental and helpful environment where you can make sense of your experiences and feelings while making progress towards a healthier way of being.

Are you struggling to meet your full potential? Does fear seem to get in the way of your true desires? Do your self-perceptions affect other aspects of your life such as your relationships and/or career? The journey of therapy is one of self-reflection and exploration, self-awareness, and growth. I was trained with the Humanistic belief that many factors of one's life play a role in our development and fuel our thought and behavior patterns later in life. Together, we can develop a treatment plan that works best for you and encompasses your current needs and goals.

Therapy works best when the environment and therapeutic relationship feel safe, non-judgmental, and supportive for individuals. I value the importance of how intersecting identities may impact one's mental health and recognize the unique experiences and challenges that come with them. My therapeutic approach is adapted to allow space to balance the exploration of thoughts and feelings (process) and address the specific issues or topics that someone may bring up (content). I value working with each person with an understanding of the importance of both insight and tangible change in clients' lives.

Is music an important part of your life? Music sometimes expresses how we feel in a way that talking alone cannot. Music therapy is the use of music to meet nonmusical goals. You do not need to have experience studying or making music in order to participate in music therapy. I work with musicians and non-musicians alike. Music is a powerful tool, when used skillfully, to help you meet your health goals. I have successfully helped people use music to explore their emotions in order to better understand, & manage, them. Music therapy may include learning how to make music, or it may focus on listening to, analyzing & feeling music.

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.
