We live in unprecedented times of politically-related suffering, climate crisis, and corporate greed that can leave us overwhelmed and deeply concerned for the future. Your unique personal struggles occur within this context. You may find yourself anxious, depressed, disillusioned, angry; many feel guilty accessing help when others are suffering worldwide. You may repeat seemingly ancient, painful patterns even as you yearn for inner peace, balance, and a richer life. For over 25 years I’ve offered a non-judgmental and compassionate space where you can come back to center and envision-and realize-a self-honoring life.
I help you gain insight into your unhelpful patterns, develop self-compassion, and make concrete, self-honoring changes. I work with adults struggling with anxiety, depression, eating disorders/binge eating, and more. I specialize in therapy for therapists and, having been a college professor, have unique expertise in working with professors and academics.
I work with individuals, couples, and families and will offer Climate-Conscious Group Therapy if there is sufficient interest. I received my undergraduate degree from Harvard and my PhD in Clinical Psychology from the University of California at Los Angeles (UCLA). I hold licenses in Washington and California and practice in both states.

I bring mindfulness and self-compassion into my work. I find that therapy is most effective when we work not only with the analytical problem-solving mind, but also with your felt experience as it shows up in the body and in the heart and core being. Integrating all facets of your being into your healing journey, confusion falls away, and you gain the clarity that permits wise action and change.

Many of my clients struggle with painful emotions such as disillusionment, anger/rage, and grief related to current political realities; those in "otherized" groups and those with a trauma history may deal additionally with increased post-traumatic symptoms, including hyper-vigilance to threat, reliving experiences, and more. I find that EMDR can be especially effective with these responses.
