I am not currently accepting new clients. “The curious paradox is that when I accept myself as I am, then I change” (Carl Rogers). This is the work of therapy. I approach this work holistically, attending to how each of us is impacted by past and present relationships, and by systemic influences. My perspective is grounded in humanistic and attachment theories, and influenced by multicultural and feminist thinking, with an emphasis on counteracting oppression. Research has demonstrated that our bodies hold important information that contributes to healing, therefore I incorporate body-based techniques into therapy as well.

Have you diligently worked to create a life that thrives, but still feel stuck by childhood or continuing harm? Is your past contributing to anxiety or depression in your current life? Often the coping strategies we form in childhood survive past their "effectiveness date," creating an invisible force that holds us back from thriving. In session, we will create a space for you to explore past, present, and hopes for the future. We will hold both harm and healing, as we create a framework for developing skills and a making adjustments that bring a freedom to thrive. Together we will forge a path that accounts for the beauty and harm.

Embarking on the journey to seek support can be a brave and transformative first step in your therapeutic process. If you find yourself navigating the challenges of work, parenting, or relationships while trying to maintain balance, you're not alone. I genuinely believe that within you lies the innate tools essential for a successful therapeutic journey.

Sometimes life makes us feel buried and we may not know how to find our way out. However, each of us possesses an amazing potential for resilience, healing, and growth. I offer a compassionate and authentic space where we can identify life’s challenges and stressors together. You do not have to do this alone.
