I use a strengths-focused approach that regards you as the expert of your life and recognizes the unique social, family, and political systems you live within.
I believe that therapy is a space for getting in touch with your life, exploring what's led you to this moment, and envisioning a future that you can believe in. Drawing from my previous career in improvised music, I'm particularly interested in creatively exploring issues such as perfectionism, anxiety, low self-esteem, gender roles and socialization, relationships, spirituality, and creating purpose.

I am a licensed psychotherapist specializing in grief, loss, depression, and anxiety. I often meet with people who are new to (or a little skeptical of) therapy, but are still feeling out of shift with their peers or feeling abnormal in some way. Maybe you have lost the sense of joy that you used to have. Or maybe you've been having trouble getting through your everyday activities. You may experience social anxiety and have been feeling a lack of confidence lately. You'd like to be more supportive in your relationships. If you're feeling a heaviness that prevents you from enjoying your life, I'm here to help you.

In order to shift anything, one must reach, with a gentle touch, the parts of ourselves that are able to transform. It’s only human to want to heal in order to function at our optimal capacity, whatever that might be for us. I passionately hold that we could all use a way to slow down our rapidly evolving lives—a way to hold space for what drives us forward, or slows us down in ways we’d like to speed up. Therapy is a space to peel back layers to help you move toward being fully expressed, in steady, easy participation with your life—even with its inevitable ups and downs and the in-between spaces.

Prioritizing my clients' goals is key. When life becomes challenging, we can experience feelings like despair, hopelessness, anxiety, and uncertainty. Many of these emotions can bring up a sense of fear and a lack of direction. These emotions often leave people asking, "Will I ever feel whole or better again?" The answer is, YES, you can, and YES, you will! Therapy can help you navigate through difficult times and transitions with excellent results. My work with clients has a focus on building resilience and self-compassion.

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.
