Walk and talks, arts based therapeutic interventions, and Jungian techniques are some of the more creative approaches I offer.
Are feelings of shame, guilt, worry, overwhelm, isolation, loneliness, self-doubt, grief, insecurity, obsession, or panic pulling you away from feeling connected to yourself and others? Maybe you are holding so much on your plate that you simply need another person present to hold it with you, offer kindness, non-judgement, and validation. No matter what brings you to this page, know that you are not alone. There is so much to navigate in this life and it does not have to be done without support. I would like to be that support for you on the other end.

You do not have to be sick to get better. I believe in paying attention to experience not what is bad or wrong. We can all learn skills to improve. My past experience as a world ranked professional tennis player gives me insight to work with high school, collegiate and professional athletes or anyone in this age. I work from a depth model, which encourages self-exploration to improve skills. The exploration helps one become conscious of long standing coping mechanisms that may no longer be as valuable as they once were. Learning what you do that blocks happiness empowers you to make choices that lead to a satisfying life.

Health is not just being able to have positive experiences, but to be able to move through the range of human experiences without getting stuck in one over another. In this way, I view health as the ability for movement – whether that be psychologically, energetically, or within a system. The ability to move and adapt without getting stuck is essential for our well-being. It is my intention to help call forth your Unknown Self – so that you may move through life in your wholeness.

Where most therapies aim to reduce symptoms so you can get back to normal functioning, Jungian therapy is totally different.
Like many therapists, I’m equipped with the tools to help others largely because of my own suffering. I was lost, looking for guidance, and tried many forms of therapy, finding most to be superficial. I felt like I was offered band-aids for the bleeding when I wanted to cauterize the wound. I didn’t want coping skills for my depression, I wanted to know why I was depressed so that I could DO something about it. I wanted real change. I finally got what I asked for, and my life turned upside-down when I discovered Jungian therapy.

Jungian Psychotherapy is a holistic approach to talk therapy that seeks to bring union between the conscious and unconscious parts of the psyche.
Did you know ages 45-55 are just as developmentally rich as adolescence? What if we saw aging as a spiritual path, and our body's symptoms of perimenopause and menopause as guides? A mid-life crisis is often characterized by an anxious sense of "is this all there is?" compounded by stressors related to caregiving, death, divorce, job loss and relationship dissatisfaction. This can create existential questions related to one's identity, purpose and meaning in life. Yet this mid-life chrysalis, is an opportunity to slow down, reflect and become more fully conscious of ourselves as women in the afternoon of our lives.

Therapy is about telling the truth, healing old wounds, and making changes. Most of my clients are smart, sensitive, conscientious types who are vulnerable to overthinking and anxiety because you think and feel so much. Some of your greatest gifts - such as your empathy and intelligence - have a way of turning against you and making your life harder. If this sounds like you, we might be a good fit. I transitioned from being a philosophy professor to a mental health counselor after realizing that I enjoyed counseling my students more than teaching them.

Jungian Therapists
How does Jungian therapy work?
Jungian therapy, also called analytical psychology, focuses on a patient’s inner experiences and unconscious mind. Exploring a person’s unconscious mind can be achieved through several means, including the analysis of memories and dreams, and through physical exercises, such as art, dance, and word association.
How long does Jungian therapy last?
Jungian therapy is an intensive treatment type. Because its goal is to understand a person as a whole, including the unconscious aspects of them, treatment can range from months to years. Since patients learn the theory behind Jungian therapy during treatment, they can also practice its tenets throughout life after therapy sessions have completed.
Is Jungian therapy effective?
According to studies, many patients find success with Jungian therapy, and the century-old treatment has a devoted following. Researchers note that the therapy is particularly useful in improving relationships, self-esteem, anxiety, and depression. Improvements in problem areas seem to continue even after the end of Jungian therapy, as people are able to continue working on themselves using the tools they’ve learned during the treatment.
Is Jungian therapy evidence-based?
Jungian therapy is theory-based, derived from the theories of Carl Jung, a Swiss psychiatrist often called one of the fathers of psychology, along with Sigmund Freud. Jung developed his theories from observing the problems of patients, and developed many theories of how the mind works. Subsequent psychological research has determined that Jungian therapy can lead to significant improvement in most patients.
