"The wound is the place where the Light enters you." - Rumi - My goal is to provide individualized and compassionate services to empower others and guide them along the path of healing. I am integrative in my approach and tailor treatment to the specific and varied needs and preferences of my clients. I will work with you to improve your mood, solve problems, manage anxiety, and resolve negative experiences from your past so you can live a healthy and gratifying life!
I have 27+ years of experience providing various types of therapy to help others in ways that feel right and work for them. Areas of expertise include anxiety, panic, depression, trauma, emotional dysregulation, personality disorders, and functional neurological symptom disorder including PNES. I'm currently focused on adults, specializing with women.
You deserve to be happy and lead a fulfilling life! Therapy isn't always easy but can be the most meaningful gift you can give to yourself and those who love you. If you think I can support you on your journey I would love to meet you!
