I am someone who listens to you closely, helps you feel safe being vulnerable, appreciates eccentricity, and is curious about your life. I can hold your strong feelings, contradictions, and complexities, and help you make some sense of it all. I believe there is great relief in being truly understood and accepted, and change comes more easily after I have reflected and honored your experience. I will ask you questions that gently open new ways of imagining your life that you hadn't wondered about before. I will guide you in reaching a place of deeper awareness and strength. I offer sessions in my office and on private forest trails.
I will help connect you to both your self and nature. I have broad experience working indoors and outdoors, with disabilities, trauma, anxiety, grief, and loss. I specialize in birth, parenting (esp. children with special needs), and marital issues. I have traveled widely, worked extensively in the queer community, as well as with immigrants/ESL speakers.
If you are someone who benefits from walking and talking, or someone who feels a sense of belonging in nature, or who yearns to sense this connection, I could be a good fit for you. We all heal differently, and I strive to be inclusive and responsive to each individual. We may write, talk, or sit quietly sipping tea. Either way, I hold a safe space.

After 20 years working within the medical model, I've stepped outside the insurance system and am committed to normalizing struggle and pain without the need for diagnosis, and maintaining your dignity and privacy. This choice also allows me to offer an expansive range of alternative treatments.

I focus on what you need each session, recognizing that we show up differently over time. I know from experience that healing takes many forms and that sometimes you need fresh air, sometimes soothing words, sometimes challenging questions, sometimes concrete skill-building, sometimes extended time to tell or write your story, sometimes body movement, sometimes a safe space to cry or to just be.
