Do you feel like your needs don't matter or have trouble identifying what they might be? Do you feel stuck in states of self-judgement or guilt? Do you feel numb or disconnected, or overwhelmed by the stressors of daily life? I believe that it is absolutely possible to transform your relationship with yourself and others, and to move through the world with a greater sense of ease and belonging. Together we'll start with building a sense of safety and connection, then gently explore the old patterns and obstacles that hold you back from your full aliveness.

My work is trauma-informed, meaning that individual and collective traumatic experiences and relationships can be woven into a person’s experience of the world, and will need tending to in our time together; and relational, or that our primary motivation is to relate to others, and values the client/therapist relationship as integral to insight and healing.
I specialize in working with people feeling challenged by relationships, work, parenting (from pregnancy through empty nest), and aging, as well as people struggling with trauma, grief, and loss. I start from the position that past experiences and attachments have profound effects on our everyday lives, and our abilities to move forward. I have an interest in working with those who navigate multiple cultures and communities (through, for example, racial identity, class background, immigration, religion, gender, and sexuality), as well as those who work in education, healthcare, nonprofit, and creative fields.

Do you constantly feel like you aren't good enough? If this feeling is getting in the way of your relationships or pursuing a fulfilling & meaningful career, you are not alone. Therapy can help you untangle from unhelpful expectations from childhood and our demanding culture. You may have learned to overwork yourself or perhaps felt that it's not even worth trying. While you may not have chosen these beliefs, they may be getting in your way of living your best life. Learning to recognize and understand the beliefs that may be holding you back will allow you to get unstuck and live more fully and authentically.

The therapeutic relationship is the most important part of therapy! Connecting with a new therapist can be a difficult process in the best of times, doubly hard during COVID while we do everything virtually.
My orientation is focused on seeing an individual within the context of their family, their work, their community. I will be a compassionate listener. But therapy requires more than compassionate listening. To have effective therapy is to be challenged in the way we think, feel, and live. My clinical style is to find solutions while staying rooted in compassion and understanding. I specialize in working with college-age individuals and young professionals.

I have vast experience helping clients learn to manage their symptoms of anxiety, depression and disordered eating as well as navigating relationship issues and life transitions.
My clients range from young adults to people in middle age. Most of my clients seek therapy when they become overwhelmed by a personal life challenge. Many aspects of their lives may be going smoothly, but they struggle in other areas: could be the academic rigors of college, a complicated relationship with a romantic partner, how to handle work stress or parenting issues. Whatever the reason, my clients hope for a therapist who creates a safe space for them to talk openly about their struggle, someone to help them gain new perspective and to partner with them to help alleviate the emotional pain caused by their difficulty.
