Life can be overwhelming-leaving little time or energy for peaceful introspection. I use a warm acceptance and humor to help clients face challenging dilemmas. Without understanding the motivation behind our impulses, we can lose our way, sometimes getting stuck for years, and developing maladaptive emotional coping difficulties. I help people recognize and overcome their self-limiting belief systems, generating greater self knowledge, confidence and having the ability to tolerate the emotional strains of contemporary living. I have over 20 years of work experience in the trauma field- working with both survivors and perpetrators of abuse.

Are you looking for ways to manage depression, anxiety, trauma, relationship issues, or grief/loss? Is your substance use unmanageable and causing problems?

Working from a holistic, strengths-based approach, I encourage and support client's to draw upon their inherent wisdom, by working through challenging transitions. As an Integrative Psychotherapist and Licensed Alcohol and Drug Counselor I draw upon a variety of therapeutic orientations to meet the unique needs of each individual.

You’ve been holding it together for everyone else—and now it’s your turn. I work with adults navigating anxiety, trauma, depression, gender identity, and the ache of trying to stay “functional” when your insides are screaming. I proudly serve the LGBTQ+ community, including gender-affirming care and letters for surgery. Many of my clients are queer, sensitive, justice-minded folks seeking a space to be fully seen and supported. If that’s you, you’re not alone—and you’re not broken.

I have had the opportunity to work for 43 years with Individual adults and adolescents, couples, families, and groups. The issues of trauma, loss, life changes, depression and anxiety are so much a part of all of our lives. Levels of stress complicate conversations, disconnect relationships, decrease self care, and interfere with our happiness. Finding balance is what this therapy can offer. Imagine sitting and talking with no judgement, confronting your own past and finding a new present. Working together we will undo old messages which have run your emotions and influenced your behaviors and create new ones you choose to live by.
