I believe that we all have the resources within us to heal, and yet sometimes we need a little help. The right connection between a therapist and client can help start that healing. Maybe your teenager is sullen and isolated. Maybe you are in love and scared to be truly seen by another. Maybe there’s an angry side of you that your family doesn’t understand and a vulnerable side that is too scary to feel. Together we can work on acceptance, healthy coping skills, and letting go of bad habits. Without judgment, we will build an understanding of who you are as a person so as to realize your strengths and fortify them.
I work with teens and adults to help find their own true voice so that they can lead the lives they want. Although I see a wide range of issues, most of my clients are high-functioning MEN who are saddled with work stress, burnout, mid-life crisis, perfectionism and the shame of feeling ‘not good enough.’
Isolation is a killer. Connection with others is the key to unlocking change. Let me teach you skills on how to ask for what you need. Call me to set up a free consultation session, so that we can discuss the many ways I can help you and yours move on to a fuller, more integrated and joyful life.

I am an asset based therapist, helping you to identify and amplify your strengths. I see through an Attachment lens, examining old relationship patterns and unmet needs then teaching you how to identify your needs/wants while learning "the healthy NO." I work somatically (with TRM) to teach you ways to tolerate and regulate your nervous system. I won't keep you wandering around in the dark.
