If you are looking to dig in deep, we could be a good fit. If you are not sure what is making you feel empty or stressed, we could try together to get to the bottom of that. Shame and fear are often underneath many things that distress us. You may also be very clear what’s upsetting you and we can talk about that, too. This frequently is about personal or work relationships that we find challenging, whether it is about power imbalances or in not knowing how to communicate our needs or set boundaries. I am keenly aware of the dehumanizing forces in society and am interested in working with people who feel affected by these realities.
I am warm, smart, compassionate, curious and love my work. I am not scared of patients’ intense emotions. I have worked in many settings (e.g. crisis clinic, inpatient hospital, chronic pain program), and alongside that work have had a private practice since 2001.
Psychotherapy is an ongoing conversation. If you’re interested in seeing if we might be a good fit, feel free to reach out and we can have a 15 minute consultation to explore that possibility. I look forward to connecting with you.

I am not in network for any insurance companies, but am happy to provide you with a superbill you can submit to them for partial reimbursement. I understand how stressful it is that many insurance companies do not reimburse very much.
