Starting therapy for the first time can feel intimidating. My goal is to create a space where you feel comfortable, understood, and supported from the very first session. Therapy with me is collaborative and active—we work together to better understand what you’re experiencing and develop practical tools that help you make meaningful changes in your daily life. I specialize in treating OCD, including Pure-O, using evidence-based approaches such as Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT), Exposure and Response Prevention (ERP), Rumination and Metacognitive Therapy, and Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (ACT).

Depression and anxiety can ruin careers, relationships, self confidence, success and happiness. Do you feel unmotivated, disappointed in yourself or others, envious, or unsure? If so, there may be powerful root causes lying just outside your awareness. Often I can help, even if other attempts have failed. When choosing a therapist, training and experience matter. I trained at Stanford and Columbia, finished 2 postdoctoral fellowships, completed psychoanalytic training, and have practiced for 30+ years. While never a quick fix, therapy can foster greater success and happiness in life. Offering teletherapy nationwide.

Are you feeling disconnected in your relationships? Are you struggling with emotional intimacy, trust, communicating, or taking up space? Relationships are at the heart of our well-being—but they can also be a source of confusion and pain. In my work, I help people reclaim their capacity to emotionally connect to themselves and others. Together, we'll explore relational dynamics, and how some challenging relational patterns may be rooted in past traumatic experiences. Through this process, we'll increase insight and begin to develop new ways of thinking and relating—ones that foster connection rather than conflict and distance.

I enjoy seeing a wide variety of clients as I am able to offer them some unique perspectives to improve and change their current situation. It is my hope that our work together will challenge you to grow in ways you imagined and in some you do not. I have been a pastor in the Lutheran church and that gives me some unique abilities to help you utilize your faith as a strength. Although faith is not a prerequisite to counseling, I offer faith based counseling for those who have spirituality as one of their resources. I also see the value of animals in the lives of my clients and we offer a pet friendly environment.

You’ve spent so long just trying to get through it. Through EMDR and IFS-informed therapy, I help you move beyond surviving and begin healing. You may find yourself feeling anxious, emotionally shut down, or caught in patterns of overthinking and relationship struggles that you don't fully understand. Together, we can explore how complex trauma, emotional neglect, and difficult relationships have shaped your experiences and find a path toward healing, safety, and self-compassion. I offer a compassionate, nonjudgmental space where all parts of your story are welcome.

“I am out with lanterns, looking for myself.” -Emily Dickenson. Can you relate, like you've lost parts of yourself? Whether it’s due to trauma, anxiety, addiction, ADHD, co-dependency, or parenthood, it can be tricky to put your finger on. Let’s get curious about those stories you’re carrying; most likely, they are heavy, and a part of you is ready to become unburdened. Together, we can move through the layers of your life, explore times, relationships and situations that contain conflict. I’ll meet you where you’re at, and from there, encourage you to identify themes and patterns in your life that are no longer working for you.

Currently, I work with adults, adolescents (15+), families, and couples.
Working in sex education for 10 years, I learned about the importance of being actively nonjudgmental, and I think overcoming shame can play a big part in the therapy space. If you are someone who struggles with shame in any part of your life, I hope we can work together.
