I view therapy as a collaborative journey to support wellbeing on all levels: mind, body, and soul. It is a sacred space where together we can untangle the issues that are creating distress in your life, uncover and heal old wounds, discover lost and hidden treasures, and help you find your path back to wholeness. Therapy can help your child safely work through feelings such as sadness, anger, anxiety, or grief; develop a strong sense of self-esteem, and learn new skills to feel empowered and effectively make their way through an increasingly complex world.

I use depth and somatic therapy, art, play, dreamwork, and mindfulness to support clients of all ages reach their therapeutic goals and cultivate healing and wholeness in their lives. I'm passionate about social justice, celebrate neurodiversity, and am a staunch ally of the LGBTQI+ community. I also offer IEP support for children with learning challenges.

In our work together I will support you on your unique journey to your wellbeing, to your Self. Therapy is a process, and it takes courage and commitment. I will have your back every step of the way! I offer free 15 minute phone consultations to help you in your search. Please email or call to set up a time to talk.
