To bring my best expertise to our work together, I've dedicated a career (and a whole lot of bookshelf space) towards cultivating a deep and specialized understanding of the experiences of trauma, anxiety, postpartum, and grief. During this ongoing time of uncertainty and finding new normals, you may notice a decline in your mental health. You may find yourself wanting someone to process with. You may be seeking a calm in the storm. I can help.

I believe that peace on earth starts with peace in the home. I'm able to help adults, couples, and families find this peace by using healthy communication techniques, recognize their emotions and heal from past pain. This helps clients foster deeper connections in their relationships and within themselves. I work with couples needing support with communication, conflict resolution and gaining trust. I help parents establish loving limits with their children to help them learn while also maintaining connection. I can help clients cope with anxiety, depression, trauma, and postpartum.

Taking the step to reach out for therapy, on our own or with a partner/family member, is a brave move. Relationships and life in general can offer great sources of joy as well as frustrations, and when talking with our family and friends, we may edit or limit what we say for fear of judgment, or burdening them. Reflecting and expressing ourselves freely with a neutral, non-judgmental helping professional is an excellent way to increase self awareness and insight about the challenges we encounter, even if we aren’t quite certain what to say.

I am entering the therapy profession with a PhD in musicology, having spent the past 20 years working as a music professor, private teacher and professional musician. I find that many of the same skills apply in teaching and in therapy. My therapy education focuses on systems theory, seeing clients not only as individuals but as part of interlocking networks of family, friends, colleagues, organizations, etc. I view much of my work as helping clients to evolve in these networks in ways that support them as individuals and work for their health and, potentially, the health of those around them.

Feeling overwhelmed, depressed or struggling with self-harm behaviors? Do you find yourself looking at Facebook, Instagram or Twitter thinking why can't my life be like theirs? With our increasingly hectic lives, it's understandable and can feel challenging at times. Challenges can stem from specific life events, developmental transitions, pregnancy, parenting, loss, trauma, feeling disconnected from others, work/academic pressures and/or everyday kinds of stress. It's no wonder that things like anxiety, negative thoughts and depression can begin to creep in. I understand these challenges and I can help.

I work with adults who feel as though worries and fears interfere with daily life. These issues might manifest as social anxiety, panic attacks, fears of specific objects or situations, general feelings of being "on edge," insomnia, or symptoms of obsessive-compulsive disorder (intrusive, upsetting thoughts/feeling driven to "do something" in response).

I frequently hear my clients say some version of “If people ever knew what I’m struggling with on the inside…” Maybe you're a "people-pleaser" or someone with invisible chronic illness or maybe you're a high functioning individual who manages to hold it all together while feeling like a mess on the inside. If you're searching for some space to be heard and understood and sift through the internal dynamics, I can help.
