Over 20 years of extensive experience with youth and adult clients in a variety of settings (schools, community agencies, and private practice) allows me to successfully help you with anxiety, mood, trauma, behavior, developmental concerns, adjustment, and family conflict. I have special skill working with dual diagnosis. I am positive, approachable, and build strong relationships with each client to increase positive treatment outcomes.

Life is never static and coping can become difficult when changes occur. These challenges can cause one to feel stuck. I believe that help in sorting things out can be beneficial, allowing one to gain understanding, self awareness,and the ability to feel better. Working with a non-critical therapist can help you grow and deal with life's challenges. I offer a safe and trusting environment where we can work to reduce negative feelings, fears,anxieties, doubts and frustrations. Together our focus is to help you move toward finding more satisfaction and contentment in your life.

Though each person’s experience is unique, a common thread is that not knowing where emotions come from adds to distress. My hope is to provide a nonjudgmental place to better understand your emotions so that you can gain a sense of control in creating a meaningful life. A meaningful life may involve feeling comfortable sitting alone with your thoughts, the past becoming less haunting, more effective communication in relationships, feeling productive, or something else. Whatever you are working towards, I am here to support you.

**Not accepting clients at this time** Therapy is a process of collaborative change. Whether you want to explore your emotional experiences or need support throughout your gender transition, I am here to work with you. I seek to provide a space of unconditional yet objective support, to create an environment in which you can be your authentic self, and to facilitate a deeper understanding of who you are. My therapeutic approach is rooted in empathy, coping skill building, self-exploration and awareness, decolonization, and anti-oppression.

I am passionate about helping people find emotional, mental, and spiritual healing in their lives. With the pressures that can come from work, family, and/or society in general, I make it my goal to provide people with a safe space where they can process their current life events and/or past issues that are troubling them.

As a Marriage and Family Therapist I work with couples, families, and individuals seeking ways of better communicating as a way of improving relationships. It is my belief that effective change can be facilitated in a safe, welcoming environment that is inclusive of multiple perspectives. I practice with a culturally informed approach to my work taking into consideration the context of each person's circumstances. I understand that difficult circumstances, may lead to certain challenges in life. My goal for clients is to learn skills that they may implement in daily life to help manage the trying circumstances they encounter.

Each of us is our own, unique universe, existing in a multiverse of connection with others. I am particularly attuned to how you and I connect, what patterns are created, what barriers exist, and what are the costs and benefits to you of maintaining or changing those. I am keenly aware how each of us is situated in a larger world of social relations, privilege, and oppression, and how those influence who we are. Through understanding and compassion, I can help you realize a more fulfilling, peaceful relationship with yourself and more satisfying relationships with others.

Personal difficulties often entail masking your feelings in your daily life. It's important to me to create a space for you where you can just relax and be yourself. Struggles are a normal part of living; likewise the desire not to struggle alone. I support clients by helping them gain insight, build skills, and utilize their strengths in the interest of being resilient and "struggling well."

I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker (LCSW) psychotherapist specializing in Trauma-Informed Care. Using an eclectic treatment model I focus on treating the whole person, considering the causes of trauma, and taking into account past trauma and the resulting coping mechanisms when attempting to understand behaviors and treating the patient.
