Overwhelmed and feeling unsure? Worried about your child? Struggling with parenting? Stuck in a negative cycle with your significant other and unable to connect again? Coming to terms with divorce and co-parenting? Wanting to improve family communication? Battling the shadows of depression and anxiety? Dealing with the stress of incarceration? Wanting change in your life but not sure what? Seeking therapy is hard and deeply personal. You are the expert in your life! I strive to make each client feel accepted, safe and understood. Together, we can discover your unique path to change and healing within yourself and relationships.
I build strong, open connections to help you unpack underlying complexities, trauma and identity within yourself and relationships which are maintaining undesirable patterns. I accept all relationship styles to focus on your specific needs. I also use Play Therapy to address many childhood and attachment issues in a way that makes kids feel important.
With education in Cultural Anthropology & Religion, I intentionally attend to your unique identity...whether a bi-racial couple, a recent immigrant, LGBTQ+ individual dealing with oppression, a mom struggling to find work/home balance, a family impacted by incarceration. I have training in the major world religions and integrate spirituality as desired.
