I became a therapist because of the transformative experience I had as a client. I know firsthand how powerful and healing the therapeutic relationship can be and this is the experience I aim to give my clients. It is possible to create the life and the relationships that nourish and inspire you, but most of us get stuck somewhere along the way and need help figuring out how to get back on track and how to heal the parts of ourselves that keep us in unhealthy and ultimately unfulfilling patterns of thought, feeling or behavior. My approach emphasizes acceptance of, and compassion for, the whole person.

I work with clients who are (highly) sensitive, empathic, or intuitive. Sensitive people have a finely attuned nervous system that is a huge gift when made conscious. They experience life deeply, yet don't always feel easily understood by others. Growing up, they often experienced not fitting in, and have adapted to a largely non-sensitive world in myriad ways that didn't always serve their best interest. I support sensitive people on their path to finding their voice, experiencing genuine relationships, purposeful work, and reclaiming their space in the world.

Do you feel a sense of disconnection from the person you once were, following challenging or traumatic life events? Are feelings of anxiety, isolation, fear, or persistent sadness dominating your daily experience? Are your relationships with peers and romantic partners strained, hindered by unresolved trauma and emotional challenges? Do you sense that your trauma and relationship issues are impeding your ability to lead a healthy life? Perhaps you often ponder if there's a way to make things better in your life. In our individualistic society, the weight of trauma symptoms and relationship difficulties can be unbearable.

Together we can look at your challenges in direct and objective ways to help address that which prevents you from living fully. I enjoy working with people hoping to transform their lives and wanting to reconnect to their authentic self. I also work with techies and individuals struggling with medical illness and chronic conditions. Sessions will entail better understanding you, your tribulations, and that which no longer serves you.

Your relationship just feels different than it use to. Less excitement, less connection, but more fights and more frustration. You know you love each other, but this is not the relationship you imagined when you first started dating. It feels like you and your partner are going through the daily motions to just get through the day. You swore you'd never let you and your partner end up like those other couples who slowly drift apart. You want things to be better, easier, and more fun. You're finally ready to take the step to reconnect, make your relationship a priority and rekindle joy and love you know is still there.
