Whatever has brought you here, the healing path is a vital part of being human. The symptoms we seek to address are rooted in psychic pain that is often well out of our awareness. The gift that pain gives us is the opportunity to look more closely at our inner world. This is a journey in which a knowledgeable guide is valuable. I am a deep listener and collaborator and my work is relationally focused.
I specialize with people at major cross roads I help people make changes at a deep level. Common concerns: anxiety, depression, compulsive eating, spending, identity, life transitions, aging and grief, gender identity and transition, coming out, problems of personality organization and patterns of relationships that you struggle to change.
It takes courage to seek assistance. I'm glad you are here. Take your time to find the right fit. If you would like to schedule a consultation, please reach out to me. My openings are limited but I do have in office and zoom availability in CA. At this moment, I do not have sliding scale availability in my schedule.

I work with people who are tired of being someone they are not, tired of hiding out in old patterns or roles, who want to dig more deeply into questions and wonderings about what makes for a meaningful life. Often people seek me out who have deeper struggles with trauma, religious, cultural abuse, and marginalization.
