If you are looking for a therapist who is accessible, present, fearless, and authentic, then we might just be a match. I love clients who are therapy veterans and know what they want (or what they don't). I also love to help clients who are new to therapy, and feel a little nervous, to feel secure and supported. Whether you have a trauma history that you need someone grounded to help you address, or just are feeling overwhelmed, if you are wanting to collaborate on making your world better, I am here for it. I bring a lifetime of experiences (and a fondness for metaphors) to the therapy room for us to draw on. I am Gottman trained.
I use strength based approaches to look forward while acknowledging the systems that formed our history. I have experience and appreciate working with deep trauma. Previously, I taught neuromuscular re-education, along with being an internationally known author and expert in Applied Mindfulness. I'm experiential and narrative based, with a big, deep toolbox.
My focus is on meeting each person where they are. I'm affirming, but straightforward. Individuals, couples, and families need support to navigate anxiety, depression and trauma, and I can be your guide. I believe that we are not defined by our problems. We collaborate to work through them, giving you real-life skills for the present and reframing the past.
