I offer in person therapy and telehealth.
I work with adults, children, teens, their families and caregivers. I have a warm, attuned approach that supports each person's intuitive ability to heal. I am trained in IFS and Rhythm of Regulation and other modalities. People go through challenging times, losses, adjustment to traumatic events, oppression. Work with children often explores movement, art and expressive play focusing on emotion regulation and working dyadically with parents/caregivers. Therapeutically supported expressive play therapy provides safety that helps children communicate their needs, feelings, modify behavior, and increase problem solving skills.

I am committed to creating a warm, empathic, honest space where clients can work collaboratively to gain insight into themselves and cultivate more flexibility in one's responses to the world. I see therapy with individuals and couples as not only a path to individual growth and healing but also as a means to empower individuals to connect meaningfully with others, take action in their lives, and make a positive impact on the world. Rooted in psychodynamic principles, my approach draws on relational, attachment, and trauma-informed theories, and integrates the knowledge of somatics, affective neuroscience, and mindfulness.

I have been working as a therapist for the past 10 years. My goal is to work with people to help them process through their history including their hurts and their joyful moments, helping them to better understand the current circumstances present in their lives, and exploring goals for their future. I believe it is important to look at the whole person, including their underlying psychological processes, belief systems, relationships, values, and goals. I have watched people heal from past hurts and move forward engaging in the world with their whole selves. I work with trauma, depression, anxiety, bipolar, personality dx, etc.

I offer in person therapy out of my office in Orange Massachusetts.
I believe that psychotherapy is a collaborative process in which a safe and welcoming space is co-created. This space allows room to supportively explore-with curiosity and self-compassion-the patterns of interaction, behavior, and thoughts that might no longer serve their purpose. I am an accomplished clinician with over 15 years of direct experience. I began my professional career in San Francisco and have since relocated back to my roots in central Massachusetts. I have worked successfully with many clients with a diversity of backgrounds, experiences, strengths, challenges, and coping strategies.

I offer therapy sessions in-person and/or via teletherapy.
If you have been looking for a dependable sense of well-being in your life, knowing that how you feel and function in the world isn’t what what you’d like it to be, I offer professional and compassionate help. Your feelings and behaviors make sense and healing is possible. I help you become your own source of support and growth. Internal Family Systems (IFS), EMDR, and somatic awareness inform my practice. We all have parts that can become less extreme, and a Self that is wise and compassionate. Trauma, attachment wounds, shame, self-hate and feeling insecure about ourselves can frequently be at the root of our struggles.

We live in an incredibly fast paced world, focused on capitalistic systems that value productivity, individuality, and a quest for materialism. This often leads to exhaustion, challenges in our relationships, and a disconnect from caring for ourselves. My goal is to provide a compassionate setting to explore your experiences that may be contributing to internal distress and disconnection, focusing on you as the expert.

I have been interested in transformative Consciousness work since the early 1970's and have extensive training in both Freudian and Jungian psychology, and varities of Mindfulness Practice. I practiced psychotherapy in greater Boston from 1973 through 1991 and then came to California to study with a Jungian teacher who studied with Carl Jung, M.D., in Zurich Switzerland in the mid 1950's! I currently combine meditative practice with the best multi-modal psychotherapy practices in order to help clients gain the maximum advantage in their lives!

I believe that all people have within them the capacity for wholeness, and that access to this innate capacity can be facilitated by the use of consciousness technologies including (but not limited to) psychedelic medicines. I believe that our natural state prior to trauma and adversity is inner peace, and that it is the birthright of all people to experience this peace in daily life. It is my privilege to assist people in finding wholeness with the assistance of deep inquiry facilitated by the legal psychedelic medicine ketamine.

Openings for video, phone, in-person sessions.
At "Circle Forward" I welcome adults from diverse backgrounds, cultures, experiences, identities & belief systems. I am skilled at supporting people who have been overwhelmed and struggle with "trauma" - unresolved, survival responses (fight, flight, appease & shut down). These natural defensives are essential for dealing with threat. Protective impulses from the past can get stuck & intrude on relationships and on physical, emotional & spiritual rhythms of day-to-day life. I support you to feel safe & allow incomplete survival responses to move slowly & integrate fully. I work online and in Greenfield, MA.
